Safety & Security
A little peace of mind goes a long way.
That's why Westco makes it easy for you to enhance the safety and
security of your home in a number of ways. More than just a
traditional security system, Westco can make sure that lights are turned
on when you're on your way home or away on vacation, monitors motion
sensors and cameras, alerts you if garage doors have been left open and
even lets you keep track of your kids so you can make sure the are where
they are supposed to be, when they are supposed to be there. Here
are just a few ways you can let Westco make sure your family is safe and
sound.
Never Come home to a dark
house again
When your garage door or front door opens, your home can
automatically turn on key interior lights or light up the walkway to
your door. As you move from room to room, motion sensors can turn
the lights on and off for you - ideal if you're carrying a sleepy child
to be or have an armful of groceries.
Keep an
eye on your home, no matter where you are
Have you ever arrived at work and wondered if you left
the garage door open? With solutions from Westco, you can receive
an email alert letting you know that it's open. Just access your
home system over the internet and you can close the garage door
remotely, protecting your home and your family.
When you're on vacation, the last thing you want to do is worry about
your house. Or maybe you have a vacation home that you only visit
a few times a year. Westco can monitor temperatures to prevent
freezing, alert you if there's a water leak, coordinate with your
security system to send you alerts, and let you see what's happening in
your home using cameras and the internet. You can even set lights
to automatically mimic your usual patterns so it appears that you're
home, even when you are not!
Check on
the ones you love
If you have to work outside of your home, you can still check on the kids. A system from Westco can send you an email alert if the door has not opened when the kids usually get home from school so you can check and make sure they are OK. You can also set certain functions to allow the kids limited or no access to the TV or PS3 so they can focus on their homework or chores. And you can have the system send you an alert if a medicine or liquor cabinet has been opened while you are away.
Even when the kids are home but out of sight in the yard, the theater or the playroom, you can keep an eye on them. Using cameras, motion sensors and announcement to keep an eye on the kids, know immediately if they are leaving the yard, and communicate with them. Time for dinner? Simply push one button and you can turn off TVs, computers and music - and send them a voice message that its time to come to the table.
Many of us have aging parents and we would like to keep them in their homes as long as possible. But we also want to make sure that they are safe. With a smart system from Westco, you can receive alerts if a motion sensor doesn't activate in the morning, or use a bed sensor to ensure that your parents are up and moving around. You can also use cameras to literally keep an eye on them, or have it interact with their security system to make sure everything is locked up at night. Westco can also provide elder-care specific features including interactive communication via email and instant messaging that is easy to learn and use, further helping you keep in touch no matter where you are.
