Designing a custom smart home isn’t just about the features, it’s about which features are best for your particular lifestyle. The first step in Ficrest’s approach is coming up with a concept that takes your individual needs into consideration. Whether you’ve got children, work from home, or travel frequently, we can personalize the smart technology in your house to complement your needs.
Smart Homes for Families with Children
Safety is a primary concern for families with children, and a smart home can give parents peace of mind. Doorbell cameras, smart locks, and sensors on doors and windows keep your home, and the people in it, safe and secure. Smart carbon monoxide and smoke detectors keep your family safe from fires and unintentional gas poisoning.
A smart home puts control in parents’ hands with smartphone access for lights, locks, alarms, and even parental controls on entertainment systems.
Automations that control features like lights and HVAC make mornings and bedtime easier by taking over tasks that would normally have a parent running from room to room. Your smart home knows when it’s bedtime, and what to do regarding lights, shades, powering down electronics, etc., allowing you to focus on your family.
Smart Homes for Remote Workers
Remote workers have unique needs in their smart home, and an array of options to minimize distractions and maximize their productivity, starting with a strong network and communications system providing a quality connection to your workplace and co-workers.
Room-specific automations can include a noise dampening sound system to help you tune out unwanted distractions, while automated lighting, shades, and climate control keep you comfortable and focused while you work.
Smart Homes for Frequent Travelers
Leaving your home unattended can be nerve wracking, but a robust security system and remote monitoring mean you can keep an eye on things even when you’re away. Security cameras and smart locks can be accessed easily, giving you control wherever you are. Smart detectors will notify you immediately in case of water leaks, smoke, or carbon monoxide, allowing you to respond quickly and remotely shut down systems to prevent or minimze damage. Automated lighting and blinds add extra security by mimicking your routine and simulating occupancy, and push notifications will let you know if there’s any activity or an emergency.
Your smart home will utilize energy-saving features like climate and appliance control while you’re gone, and you’ll return to a perfectly comfortable home, just the way you like it.
Smart Homes for Tech-Savvy Seniors or Aging in Place
Voice-controlled systems make it easy for anyone to control lights, climate, and security with minimal tech know-how. Easy-to-use interfaces make even the most sophisticated and complex smart home system accessible. As falling is a major concern for seniors, fall detection and emergency alert integrations are unique technologies well-suited to their homes. And while smart doorbells with cameras give extra security, they’re also a convenient addition.
Lifestyle-Driven Add-Ons: Entertainment, Wellness, and Eco-Friendly Features
Your smart home customization can have any focus you want. Movie lovers can install a home theater system with high-end speakers and a screen or projector with a stunning picture. Wellness focused homeowners will appreciate environmental controls and air quality monitoring. The eco-conscious can invest in solar integrations.
The features you want and need can be integrated into your custom smart home, making it a custom oasis. Explore the possibilities with Ficrest’s unique approach. Contact us today to get started.
