The Best New Home Security Tech Gadgets of 2023

In 2023, technology is more affordable than ever!

Smarthomes, smart technology… as more and more people jump in, especially with new home construction, these types of systems have become more affordable and thus more commonplace.

Last year Strand Security installed these window shades, these types of Smarthomes systems, and several smarthome home theater technology systems!

Alexas, Google homes… who doesn’t own a ‘Siri’ device, right?

Let’s look at the best new home security tech gadgets for 2023. We know you’ll want them!

The Best New Home Security Tech Gadgets of 2023

 

10 of the Best New Home Security Gadgets of 2023

We don’t do anything halfway.
We’ve collected a list of not one or two, but ten home security gadgets.

In no particular order, here they are!

  1. Smart Door Locks: Smart door locks allow you to lock and unlock your doors from anywhere using your smartphone or a smart home device. A simple app will help you double-check if you locked that door, and allows you to open the door for the nanny, grandparents, a delivery person or a contract, to name a few examples. No more leaving a key under the mat!
  2. Smart Alarms: Smart alarms are connected to your home security system and can alert you when there’s any unusual activity in your home. You will know immediately if someone is trying to enter your home, and precious time is saved! With a quick response, you could potentially avert a disastrous outcome!
  3. Video Doorbells: Video doorbells let you see who’s at your door and communicate with them even when you’re not at home. While these aren’t new, they are more popular each and every day. The best part – anyone can operate the bell and as more and more of these have been installed, people have saved lives by using these video doorbells to alert neighbors to danger. (fire, break-ins)
  4. Home Automation Hubs: Home automation hubs let you control all your smart home devices from a single app or device. Now that’s not new either, but at least more of our customers are asking for this. We’ve been using Zwave for years to connect all devices in one home.
  5. Smart Lights: Smart lights can be programmed to turn on and off at specific times, making it seem like someone is home even when you’re not. No more clunky plugin timers, no more trying to ‘set’ a failed timer. Automate this with an app!
  6. Indoor Security Cameras: Indoor security cameras provide live footage of what’s happening inside your home, giving you peace of mind when you’re away, and when those you love are at home. Teenagers, elderly parents, the nanny, a housecleaner. With indoor security cameras, you have a direct view of what’s happening in real time.
  7. Outdoor Security Cameras: Outdoor security cameras let you monitor the outside of your home, deterring intruders and helping you keep an eye on your property. If you have outdoor pets, a pool or trampoline, or kids who like to play outside, outdoor security cameras are a must.
  8. Motion Sensors: Motion sensors can detect any movement in your home and alert you when there’s any unusual activity, this is especially great for those families who have teenagers who might like to sneak out, or families who have a sleepwalker!
  9. Glass Break Detectors: Glass break detectors can detect the sound of breaking glass and alert you if someone breaks into your home. How cool is this new technology? We think this is one of the collect and most innovative new tech gadgets of 2023!
  10. Smoke Detectors: Smart smoke detectors can send alerts to your phone if they detect smoke or fire in your home, giving you an early warning to evacuate; time is of the essence in case of an emergency! The sooner the fire department is on the scene, the more of your home (and lives) can be saved!

The Best Temperature Screening Solution for Businesses

temperature screening solution for businesses

Is Your Local Small Business Ready To ReOpen?

We are now 4+ months in a pandemic.

Some businesses are open, as we are an essential business, others are to remain closed and others are open but struggling to keep employees and clients safe.

We at Strand Security in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, have always strived to share the best brands and newest technology with you here on this blog.

Today, we are going to help out business owners once again, this time we are offering a solution to help you get back into doing business while keeping staff and customers safe!

Temperature Screening for Small Businesses

What does temperature screening for small businesses mean?

Some small businesses like spas, hair salons, massage therapists and other service-oriented businesses who are in close contact with their clients should go beyond wearing masks. Temperature screening offers a quick, safe and fast way to determine an initial base-line for employee and client safety.

Additionally, doctors offices, schools, universities, public buildings like libraries, court houses etc. will also be implementing this screening process as they consider reopening their doors this fall.

Opening a Business Responsibly and Safely During a Pandemic

How can it be done? How can a local business be opened and stay open and keep employees and customers safe?

Tools and technology are at the forefront of all solutions!

Not all solutions have to come at a huge cost!
One brand we trust and love for security, HikVision, had not only the technology but also the vision to develop this product.

If you are already a HikVision fan, hold on to your hats to be wowed.

If you’ve never heard of them before, get ready to be blown away!

The system HikVision uses to detect temperature can be integrated with existing technology including:

• Handheld Cameras
• Surveillance Cameras
• Security Metal Detector
• Access Control Terminal
• NVR Workstations
• Mobile and Desktop Applications

Pain Points of Conventional Temperature Screening Methods

Conventional methods that do not use preliminary screening have several disadvantages:

Close Contact, High Risk

Close contact with individuals leads to potential risks

High Cost, Low Efficiency

Increased staff required, and one-to-one inspection is inefficient and costly

Added Expenses

Continual replacement of personal protective equipment (PPE) is required

Instead, use a safer, smarter and faster approach!

This is how it will work in your place of business:
It’s touch-free, safe and gives you fast, no instant results!
