Some systems are wireless where they connect to all the different sensors and devices without any wires, where some panels still require wires to be run throughout your home. Most Control Panels are now vibrant touchscreens versus the older keypad models.
Security Control Panels today even have capabilities to communicate to the monitoring center via cellular technology instead of through a phone line. They can control lights and power outlets, and even connect to cameras. Whatever your needs, there is a Control Panel and system that can solve it!

- Dimmer Switches
- Multiple Lights/Zones
By replacing your current switches with these Z-Wave Light Switches, users can control the amount of energy used, the light scenes in each room and more!
Garage Door Openers
We all hate that feeling of driving away and two or three blocks later realizing..."I don't think I shut the garage door?!" There are many options on the market today that integrate into your home security or home automation systems that allow you to open and close your garage door via. your smartphone or computer. Have a 4 Button Keyfob? Program your keyfob to open the garage door and disarm the alarm system.
Many models allow you to see whether the garage door is opened or closed, so you can have peace of mind knowing you did not leave easy access to your property.
Many garage door z-wave devices can also be set up on timers.
Indoor & Outdoor Cameras
Did that package arrive yet? See when it does with an outdoor camera. Package theft is a rapidly rising crime as more Americans buy goods online. The Delivery Man leaves the package on the front doorstep, rings the doorbell and moves on to finish his route, while a thief follows along and steals the packages off the doorstep knowing the homeowner is most likely at work or gone!
With Indoor Cameras, see when the kids or cleaner arrived. See how is coming and going or just check in on your pets and see what they are up to!
Outdoor Cameras are used to protect your property and provide greater security. Watch over your car in the driveway, your pets in the backyard, see who is coming and going and provide law enforcement greater details in the event of a burglary.
Indoor and outdoor cameras may be weatherproof and generally have infrared and night vision. They can connect wirelessly or use specialty cables to connect to your system. You can view them on any internet connected device, such as a smartphone or tablet.
KeyFobs/Remotes
Hate when you have your hands full with your briefcase or groceries and you can't turn the alarm off in time? With a keyfob remote connected to your home security or home automation system, you can arm and disarm your system from the garage or driveway before entering the house with your hands full.
The remote also serves great as a secondary portable control panel, allowing you to arm and disarm from any room in the house and can even have a panic button programed to alert the system in case of an emergency situation.
About the size of your keyless entry remote, they run off a similar "watch-style" battery and you can program multiple remotes to the same system.
