Internal and External Communication
You may or may not remember the old-fashioned intercom systems of the past. They were typically bulky boxes located in a room that allowed residents to verbally communicate with family members in other areas of the home by pressing a button and talking. The modern-day version of this in-home communication method is Intercom Anywhere from Control4.
In addition to the convenience of speaking with others in your home without getting up from the couch, you can now add in high-definition video footage and communication. Communicate with others on the other side of the house by tapping a button on an on-wall or on-table touchscreen or conduct video calls with your partner while you’re double-checking ingredients at the grocery store. Life is simply more convenient when you can communicate effectively with those who matter most – whenever and wherever you need to!
Access Control
Video doorbells have been around for many years, but DIY versions available at the local hardware store are frequently standalone products that don’t seamlessly integrate with the rest of your smart home. With Control4, you’ll have peace of mind knowing who or what is at your front door, plus smart lock and alarm system integration.
Receive a notification on your smartphone whenever there is a motion alert or a ring of the doorbell. Using an app, you’ll be able to see, hear, and speak to the delivery person at your door. Ask them to set the package inside of your front door, then unlock your front door remotely so the package can safely be delivered without fearing porch pirate activity. Once drop-off is completed, simply lock the door and re-arm the security system with a finger press. Having an eye and ear on your island property at all times has never been easier.
