15.10.2022 Your safe home by Somfy team Enhance the security of your home Buying a home-alarm starter kit is a great first step towards protecting yourself, your family and your property. Starter kits can easily be downloaded from our online store and can be quickly installed by following the instructions in our free app. The advantage of a starter kit is that it gets your home alarm working quickly, then once you’re familiar with the system it’s easy to expand with additional sensors. It’s often better to start small and add features as you become more familiar with how things work. Buying a bunch of products you’re not sure you have a use for can be a waste of money, so we recommend using your home alarm for a while to see which additional needs arise. Easily install accessories for your home alarm It’s very easy to expand your home alarm from Somfy with additional accessories. Thanks to the clear instructions in the app, new devices are quick to install. Just purchase what you need, wait for your free delivery, and then reserve some time for the installation. As the accessories for your Somfy Protect alarm are easy to install, there’s no need for a technician to come to your home to do the job. In the app you simply choose which accessory you want to add to your home alarm system, and a few minutes later it's ready. As you install these accessories it’s also a good idea to review which devices are included in your home’s shell protection. Add security cameras to your home alarm system People do not typically include security cameras with their first home-alarm purchase. You may have children you want to keep an eye on when they come home from school. Or perhaps there is a pet to watch over when you’re not home. In these situations it’s a good idea to have a security camera for indoor use. When you want privacy, a simple button press obscures the camera’s lens with a cover The garden is another area that’s worth watching over. Our outdoor cameras have a powerful built-in siren to scare away would-be intruders. You can also keep an eye on your driveway and any cars parked there. Just remember that the camera must not film the street and the people on it. The advantages of a home alarm system are many; not least that it makes your property more secure. With our subscription-free options, you also avoid monthly recurring costs (which seem to increase every year...) Please take a few minutes to explore which starter kit works best for your home!
