Abt's Custom Security Featured Services

Remotely arm / disarm your security system.

Ever forget to arm your home security system? No problem. You can easily arm or disarm your home automation system remotely using our smartphone app, or your web-enabled PC. This makes it easy to let people into your home and eliminates having spare keys floating around. You can also automate your system to send you email alerts when pre-selected events happen, such as a garage door opening, a medicine cabinet or gun case opening or an alarm being turned off.

Secure your home remotely with automatic electronic door locks.

Did you ever have to run home and let a service person into your house? Have you ever worried about all of the extra keys floating around for your home? Does everyone in the neighborhood know the code to your garage door keypad? You can end all of these problems with home automation products that let you operate locks remotely using your smartphone, tablet or PC. Let the kids in or check to make sure you remembered to lock a door, and do it all remotely with the touch of a finger.

Monitor your home remotely with wireless security cameras.

Use your laptop or smartphone and stay connected to your kids, pets and property with a home automation system featuring video capabilities. See what is going on in real time. Check in on your sitter, know when your kids show up after school, check on the dog or check in on an elderly parent. You do not have to wonder what is going on—you can see it using your smartphone, tablet or PC.

Remotely control your smart lights indoors or out.

Working late? Do you dislike coming home to a dark house? No problem. With home automation as a part of your security system, you can turn lights on or off using your smartphone, tablet or PC. You can control outdoor lights, indoor lights, program lights, turn lights on and off and—well, you get the picture. Control your lighting from miles away or from across the room, it is all up to you.

Manage energy costs with smart thermostats.

Energy costs hardly ever go down! Energy management will save you money on utility bills and help your family live a greener lifestyle. Controlling your thermostat is as easy as activating your home automation system. You can adjust and monitor your thermostat from anywhere, and that makes it easy to keep the heat down (or the air conditioning up) during the day, then turn it back to a more comfortable level before you head home.

Smart Fire, Carbon Monoxide, and Smoke Detectors

Breathe easier with monitored smoke, fire and carbon monoxide detection.

Our home automation products can provide warning of dangerous environmental threats 24 hours a day. Our security professionals monitor them, and that means help is dispatched immediately even when you are asleep or away from home. You may qualify for an additional homeowner's insurance discount for monitored smoke and fire detection—check with your agent.

Your Home Automatically Tracks Your Smart Phone.

Geo-Services provide unprecedented control over your home automation system with smart technology that can remind you to adjust home lighting, your HVAC or other accessories based upon the location of your smart phone.

A Doorbell That Can Alert Your Mobile Phone.

Knowing that someone is at the door of your home is easy when you add a wireless doorbell to your all-in-one monitored security and home control system. You can elect to receive a text or email alert when your doorbell(s) rings. The doorbell can be wired in to allow the current doorbell to ring as well as the keypad and notifications.

Control your garage door from anywhere.

Did someone leave the garage door open? Stop guessing and know for sure with the LiftMaster MyQ® garage door controller. You can use your smartphone to check the status of whether the garage door is open or closed—and even remotely open or close it. It can also automatically close the garage door at a pre-set time after your security system is armed.
