Your System, At A Glance
Every home is different—and your security system should be too. First Alert® pro home security systems are professionally tailored to fit your space, routines, and goals. From sensors and keypads to smart features and life safety devices, your installer will recommend the right mix to help you stay aware and in control—now and as your needs change.
Security Panel
The security panel is the central hub of your system—connecting all your devices and keeping everything working together behind the scenes. It communicates with sensors, cameras, and smart devices throughout your home, managing alerts, automations, and monitoring. The panel ensures everything runs smoothly and securely, tailored to your home's unique setup.
Keypads & Touchscreens
Keypads and touchscreens are the control centers of your system. Whether you prefer a simple keypad or a sleek touchscreen, these devices make it easy to arm or disarm your system, check status, and manage settings.
Flood Detector
Flood detectors help you catch leaks before they become costly problems. Placed near water heaters, washing machines, or under sinks, they alert you to the presence of water so you can act quickly.
Motion Detectors
Motion detectors add an extra layer of awareness to your home. Whether placed in a hallway, living room, or garage, they can detect unexpected movement and trigger alerts or automation—like turning on lights when someone enters a room.
Door & Window Contacts
These sensors let your system know when a door or window is opened. They're a key part of securing entry points and can also be used to trigger automations—like turning on lights when you come home or sending an alert if a window is opened unexpectedly.
Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarms
Your security system isn't just about keeping people out, Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are essential for early warning in case of fire or gas leaks. These life safety devices are monitored and connected, so if something happens while you're home or away, help can be on the way fast.
