For decades, we have known how important security is for small businesses. Not only is the business data security important, but being able to have excellent digital security is at the highest importance. Small business owners need mobile access- whether they are on premises or not. Instead of using a large scale security system, small business owners can get away with a home security system instead. Having a business home security system translates to easy management, on-the-go control and powerful insight into overall operations.

What Products To Have For You Business Home Security System
Smart Locks
Smart locks are innovative and highly advanced door locks. These locks create a platform for users to enable strong and convenient security for their households, or for their businesses. The Z-Wave deadbolt lock will simplify your life as it allows you to lock and unlock your door through a pin number. This pin number can be anywhere from four to eight digits, and is located right on the front of the door in a backlit, button keypad. Users can also enter a door by using the Alarm.com system application. A smart lock is the perfect addition to automate your business security system.
You can leave your smart lock unlocked during business hours so your customers or deliveries do not have to enter a pin number just to get in. If you have specific doors in your business that should not be accessed by everyone, you could lock it through the day without interfering with the other locks. For instance, one lock for the storage room can have their own pin, but a private office can have a different pin. Even though they’re all controlled by an app, each lock is its own unit.
The integration of smart locks is to help inform the business owners. It gives them a way to track who is coming in and out of their business to keep things secured. This level of security is also important to employees as well, giving them peace of mind that it is easy to track when someone enters the business premises.
