Making your home safer using Bluetooth technology
Local security company Onguard’s latest BlueLock system promises to “change the way South Africans keep themselves secure”.
BlueLock makes use of Bluetooth technology to control access to your property, open and close garages, control lights, and set or disarm alarm systems through a smartphone.
“After months of intensive development, the cutting-edge system was introduced to South Africa just over a year ago,” said Onguard’s Richard Frost.
BlueLock is a Bluetooth receiver that can be linked to a gate motor, garage, alarm system, door, irrigation system, or light switch.
The receiver has two relay outlets and is controlled with an app available on the Apple and Google app stores. The receiver has a range of up to 25 metres.
“After opening the app, your phone can be added simply by scanning a QR code on the back of the BlueLock receiver.”
“Once the app is ready, you can control security access with the touch of a smartphone screen. The app can be used by any phone with Bluetooth version 4.0 technology or higher.”
“The BlueLock system gives users convenient and secure control of their security features.”
