Security & Access Control

Let your loved ones in, but keep the strangers out

Your home is your castle. You want to be safe and secure, but without locking out your family and friends. Smart home access control systems let you do both with ease.


Even the simplest home security systems are a step up from the traditional lock and key. Access codes mean you’ll never have to worry about losing your keys again.


But the real magic starts when you integrate your access control system with other features of your smart home.

OUR SECURITY FEATURES

Have individual access codes for each person.

Set individual codes to work at certain times only. So your cleaner can enter for their regular time, but your house is secure the rest of the week. You can set up one-off access for tradesmen or delivery staff – no need to hang around waiting for them.

Facial recognition means your doors are always unlocked and welcoming for your loved ones.

Use number plate recognition to have your garage doors open automatically when you drive through the gate.

Share footage from a CCTV camera to a screen in the house, or to your smartphone. Now you can see who’s knocking and decide whether to let them in. Great for your Amazon and online shopping deliveries!

Set up cameras to photograph anyone arriving or leaving for additional security.

Integrate CCTV and intercom to your phone. Now when someone rings at your door, you can answer them even if you’re not home.

Timing

Set your doors to close and lock automatically if motion sensors identify unusual activity. At certain times of night this could include turning on lights so that it looks as if someone was disturbed by a noise. Intruders are scared off while you sleep easy in your bed.

Set an automatic lockdown to occur if there’s no activity for a set period of time. A great way to protect your home when your teenagers head out without locking up!

Custom Home Access Solutions Tailored to Your Family’s Lifestyle

Every family has its own lifestyle and expectations. When we set up home access systems for you, we start by chatting through your concerns, then come up with a practical plan to make everything happen.

We used Nisi on our East Brighton Project. They were exceptional to deal with from start to finish.
Nothing is too much trouble and they stand by you throughout and after the project is complete. We can highly recommend them to anyone looking for home automation.

Our preferred security controller and why we love it

At Nisi we (and our clients) love Inception for our security and excess control which offers a robust foundation to access control systems suited to any home or business.

It’s scalable. You can set individual access for a handful of users or thousands, depending on what you need.

You can limit access to specific time periods.

You can set different access conditions for each user.

There’s an option to receive notifications whenever a code or fob is used.

It integrates seamlessly with our Control4 home automation systems giving clients the ability to open doors, gates and garage doors through Apple Car Play and Siri. 

A simple, secure web interface gives you complete control to create, delete and set conditions for any user.

We provide full training on the web interface, plus a user manual with instructions, as part of our service.

Timing

Intruder Alert SCENE

An alarm (siren/ strobe) feature is also included when Nisi supply and install an inception controller kit. Incorporate it into a smart home ‘Intruder Alert’ scene like this one:

“Intruder Alert!” (Scene activates when the alarm is tripped)

All LED strip lights flash a bright red colour on and off

The siren sound plays through speakers, along with an announcement saying “Intruder Alert!”.

This will no doubt send your intruders running!

When you enter a code to disarm the alarm, the LED lights slowly flash green, then return to their previous state. At the same time an announcement states “Alarms cleared”.

Facial Recognition & Custom Access Control Solutions

Facial recognition terminals, integrated with Control4, are also available. Imagine having a front door which recognises you and your family - and unlocks to welcome you home!

 

What’s the best smart home security and access control system for you? We can design, implement and support your ideal system, either as part of a full home automation system or as a standalone option.
