Deterring Intruders with Smart Home Lighting
One of the most effective ways to deter burglars is to make your home look occupied. Deako’s smart lighting allows you to do just that, even when you’re miles away.
When you’re on vacation or away from home, setting up schedules for your home’s lighting can make it seem like someone is always home, which can help deter potential intruders. For instance, by scheduling lights to turn on and off at different times, you can create the impression that someone is inside, moving from room to room.
Using indoor lights to mimic normal behavior can effectively create the illusion that your home is occupied. Set your lights to turn on and off at irregular intervals to simulate daily routines. Instead of leaving outside lights on all night, choose times you would normally use lighting in the evenings. Use timers to turn lights on and off in different rooms, suggesting that someone is moving around the house. This strategy can prevent your home from becoming a target for intruders.

Nighttime Safety with Smart Light Control
Nighttime can be unsettling, especially when you hear noises outside. Deako’s smart lighting system allows you to control your lights from the safety of your bedroom, providing immediate peace of mind.
Darkness is often an intruder’s best friend, but with Deako, you can quickly turn the tables. If you hear something outside, simply use the Deako app or a voice assistant like Alexa to turn on your lights. This instant illumination deters potential threats and keeps you safe without having to leave your room or walk around in the dark.
With Deako, you can ensure your home is well-lit and secure, all from the comfort and safety of your bedroom.
Everyday Home Security with Smart Lighting
For those times when you or your spouse are home alone, Deako’s smart lighting provides a sense of security and comfort.
Imagine being able to use an app or Alexa to turn off all the lights in your house when your spouse is out of town. This feature can alleviate worries about navigating a big dark house alone, offering significant peace of mind.
Similarly, during the shorter days of the year when it gets dark early, many people are still on their way home from work. With Deako, you can schedule your exterior lights to turn on automatically before you arrive, ensuring you never have to come home to a dark house.
If you have integration with Alarm.com, you can create automated responses to emergencies, set lights to activate when a stranger comes to the door, and deter intruders with automated lighting scenes. This integration adds another layer of security, making your home even safer.
The ability to control your home’s lighting remotely means you and your loved ones can always feel safe, whether you’re home alone or coming back after dark. This not only enhances personal safety but also makes your home less appealing to potential intruders.
Simple and Effective Smart Lighting Security
By integrating Deako’s smart lighting into your home, you can significantly improve your security and peace of mind. Whether it’s deterring intruders, managing lights while on vacation, or ensuring you never come home to a dark house, Deako offers practical solutions that make your home feel safer and more secure.
