Building a man cave in your home provides an ideal place to relax, enjoy television, and entertain. Often located in a basement, the use of a man cave could limit easy access to the rest of the home, including the front door. While you spend time in a man cave, increase your security and visual access to the rest of your home with a security system installation.
Learn which features are ideal for a man cave and how you can feel secure and comfortable spending excess time enjoying the area.
1. Access Control Panel
Anytime someone shows up at your door or on your property, you do not want to have to go all the way upstairs if it's not needed. Through an access control panel, you have complete control over the access to your home without the need to leave the man cave.
A security company can install the panel right in your basement, giving you easy access to your home's controls. A visual view can showcase a doorbell camera, a driveway camera, and an overall angle of your property. If the person at the door is a friend or family member, then you can easily buzz them in using the electronic locks.
You
can equip the locks to automatically close again once the door shuts.
2. Intercom
If you want to interact with someone through the access control panel, then you can have an intercom installed. The two-way speaker and communication system allows you to talk directly to people who approach your home without the need to leave the comfort of your man cave.
With the press of a button, you can talk to food delivery person, mail man, or other person at the door. Easily complete tasks and provide instructions. You can also have intercoms installed in other rooms of the home. For example, if you have an intercom installed in the kitchen, then you can call up to ask about food or drinks in the kitchen.
The open communication is fast and simple on an intercom with instant access. There is no need to call and wait for someone to answer.
3. Smart Home Speaker System
The security system in your house can connect to a smart home speaker system. A smart speaker system will ensure you do not miss any alerts or security messages. For example, if the speakers are also connected to television audio, the audio will pause for a moment as the speaker plays security messages.
A message may play indicating the front door has been opened or the motion detector on the driveway was activated. You can customize the security messages to match your needs and include the information you want to hear.
4. Wi-Fi Enabled Security Cameras
Many new security systems offer direct access through the cloud. While in your basement, you may not have the best cell phone service to connect directly to the security cameras. When you connect your phone and the cameras to the same Wi-Fi signal, then you can watch your camera feeds seamlessly on the devices.
The security cameras provide direct views and alternate angles. With a clear and easy Wi-Fi signal, you can check in at any time, especially when you receive alerts about security issues. You do not need to go to a home office or other area of the home to view footage. A Wi-Fi expander or direct LAN connection will give you the strongest Wi-Fi connection.
