What Is an Integrated Security System?

Instead of using multiple apps—one for the surveillance cameras, another for the smart locks, and yet another for the alarm system—consider an integrated solution that combines various components such as video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, and home automation features into a single, user-friendly interface.

Having centralized control of all your security features simplifies management and enhances security measures’ effectiveness. Use your smartphone to check cameras remotely or unlock the back door for the kids if they get home early from school—the choice is yours if you have a home security solution designed, installed, and supported by Reference Audio Video & Security. 

Beyond basic security measures, high-end systems offer a range of customizable features that cater to luxury homes' needs and aesthetics. These systems can integrate with home automation to create a truly connected home environment. From automatic adjustments of lighting and shades based on time of day to smart locks that offer both security and convenience, these features elevate the security system's functionality, ensuring protection goes hand-in-hand with your lifestyle.

Can a Security System Blend Technology with Design?

For discerning Iowan homeowners, security devices must do more than secure living spaces—they must do so discreetly. High-end systems are specifically designed to be as inconspicuous as possible and feature sleek, compact elements that blend into a property’s overall decor.

Concealed wiring, color-matched components, and unobtrusive designs maintain the aesthetic integrity of outdoor and indoor spaces without the clunky appearance of traditional security equipment. 

Which High-End Security Brands Can I Trust?

Our team strives to elevate lifestyles with an array of entertainment, security, and technology systems. Bringing everything together under an intuitive control interface makes our clients’ lives easier because they’re not left toggling between apps to make minor settings adjustments.

We can rely on these products to keep your data safe and home secure. Here are a few highlights of brands we trust:

How Can I Choose the Right Home Security Solution?

Choosing the right security system for a large estate requires more than reliable products; it requires a security team’s expertise. That’s where Reference Audio Video & Security’s knowledgeable staff comes in.

Our security design process involves understanding specific protection concerns and needs. During our initial consultation, we’ll assess your property, ask you questions, and conduct research on the following topics:

• Property size
• Family size
• Visitor frequency
• Travel habits
• Local crime trends
• Budget
• Home layout

After our initial discovery visit, we’ll design and propose a whole-home solution that will cover your wants and concerns. Homeowners should consider systems that offer the right blend of features and integrate smoothly with the architectural elements of their homes and their lifestyles. 

If a system has too many “bells and whistles,” you may feel overwhelmed by the new system and avoid using it altogether. Our goal is to prevent that scenario, instead providing a customized security solution that is easy to use yet sophisticated to protect your family and assets.
