Smart Home Security.
Smart home security solutions for you and your family
An often overlooked aspect of a smart home, smart home security allows you to monitor and control access to your home from anywhere in the world. From access control to surveillance cameras to motion and break sensors, you can implement a robust security system that keeps your home and family safe and protected from intruders and natural disasters. And thanks to smart home automation, you can tie your entire security system together, controlling and monitoring it all from the convenience of a single app on the your phone.
Access control
With smart entry systems such as the 2N IP Verso, you can control how people access your home, whether by code, fingerprint, facial recognition, or key fobs. Today’s entry systems are incredibly customizable, allowing you to manage who can access particular areas of your home and at what times. Perhaps you have a cleaning crew who helps keep your home tidy. You can give them access to your home during designated hours, lowering the risk of someone using their access to break in at night. Maybe you don’t want your younger children to be anywhere near an indoor pool or unsafe area of your home. You can restrict access to certain rooms to specific groups in your security system. No matter how you want to keep your home safe, it’s possible with smart entry systems. We’ve even installed license plate readers in homes that automatically open a garage door and unlock access to the interior home, depending on what cars approach the property!
Door access control systems are evolving. Are you keeping up? 2N certainly does. That is why we use them across our residential and commercial projects to increase physical security, and improve daily life.

3 specialty cameras
License plate reader
A license plate reader (LPR) camera, also known as an automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) camera, is a specialized surveillance camera system designed to capture and read license plate information from vehicles. These cameras are commonly used for various purposes, including law enforcement, parking management, toll collection, and security applications. Beyond these typical applications, they are also used with great success in a residential setting to keep tabs on who is accessing your property.
Panoramic cameras
A panoramic security camera, also known as a panoramic or 360-degree camera, is a type of surveillance camera designed to capture a wide field of view in all directions, typically covering a full 360 degrees horizontally. These cameras use special lenses and image processing technology to provide a comprehensive view of a scene, making them particularly useful for monitoring large areas or open spaces without the need for multiple cameras.
Thermal cameras
A thermal camera for residential use is a type of security or monitoring camera that captures and displays images based on the heat signatures of objects and people rather than traditional visible light. These cameras are designed for home security and surveillance applications and use thermal imaging technology to detect temperature differences and produce images that reveal variations in heat.
DIY vs professional cameras
DIY (Do It Yourself) security cameras are designed for easy self-installation, often wireless and affordable upfront, with features varying by model. They offer adequate performance for many residential and small business needs, and users handle support and maintenance. In contrast, professional security cameras require expert installation, tend to be more expensive upfront, offer higher performance and more advanced features, and come with ongoing support and maintenance options. They are often chosen for larger or complex installations requiring customization and integration with other security systems. The choice between DIY and professional cameras depends on factors such as budget, technical expertise, specific security needs, and desired levels of performance and support.

Motion & break sensors
It’s difficult to get complete camera coverage of your entire home and property, and unless you’ve paid a security company to monitor your home 24/7, you’re not going to catch everything that happens in your home every time. This is where sensors come in. Whether they’re break sensors installed on windows to monitor breaks in the glass, or flood sensors to ensure the basement areas of your home don’t flood with water, sensors add another layer of security to your home. Motion sensors can be integrated into your alarm system as well, so that when you are away from home and your home is locked down, any motion inside will trigger an alarm and notify local authorities.
