Security is increasingly important as people invest more in their homes. Increased control over the domestic environment is a comfort to any owner and an important part to many Future Lifestyle installations, whether it be security cameras that record days of footage that are viewable from anywhere in the home or from anywhere in the world online.

Lighting movements are also recordable acting as a good security deterrent when played back while you are away giving the impression there is someone in the premises even when you are not. Other features are lighting sensors which only trigger lights to come on upon entering an area and switch off on exit. Installations can be programmed to react to natural light levels and only come on once the sun has set or an area gets dark.

The lighting system can also be tied in with most security systems so that when the alarm is triggered the lights will flash alerting the police or security company of an intruder.

These same systems can be set up to react to the rising and setting of the sun so lights can be programmed to come on at certain times of day where needed. Again, this gives the impression there is someone in the premises.
