Advanced Keypad Locks Add Security When You Have New Guests

If a tenant moves out, sometimes it's a mystery to know if they will be away forever. If you use traditional keys and they have a copy, then they could potentially come back later. To counteract this concern, you could install new locks every time a tenant leaves or install smart locks with your security system. With smart locks, you can give every tenant their own code number that will expire when the lease ends. In the event renters return and try an old key code, you will receive a notification sent to your phone.

Automation Protects Your Rental Property In Blacksburg -- Even If You’re Away

When you have a rental or airbnb in Blacksburg, you you still have to secure the house when it's vacant. The best way to do this is to give an impression that that people are present. By linking your home security system to automation devices like lighting, entertainment systems, and climate control, your place will always appear occupied. Preset certain light bulbs to turn on at specific hours during the day and night and play music for a few hours, and a would-be intruder will quickly reconsider their plans. With the proper home security, you can set schedules through a mobile security app.
