Areas that you need to keep a close eye on such as access areas to a pool, entries and exits can be monitored by a video camera. First Alert door alarms can alert a homeowner to an intruder, but they can also alert a homeowner if a small child should wander into an unsafe area of the house.

First Alert Onelink is an innovation in First Alert home security, which uses wireless technology to allow your First Alert carbon monoxide detector, and your First Alert smoke detector to communicate with you using a voice location feature. So, for example, you might be standing in your bedroom and hear an alarm, and begin to panic wondering where it is coming from and what it means. Onelink's voice feature will say audibly, 'Warning, evacuate, smoke in kitchen.' This is a new feature of First Alert smoke detectors.

For people who have older relatives that still live on their own, the First Alert emergency alarm for the elderly can be a good way that they can both maintain their independent lifestyle, while also having quick access to emergency assistance when they need it. The First Alert emergency alarm for the elderly can also be used for people with some physical disabilities who want to live on their own, but also need quick access to emergency assistance.

When you visit the First Alert home page you will find a room by room safety audit that you can print out and walk through your home checking off the items that you have and the ones that might need some attention.
