SAN FRANCISCO — August Home has reached an agreement to integrate its August Smart Lock Pro device into the Alarm.com (Nasdaq: ALRM) platform.
The August Smart Lock Pro is now fully integrated with security panels supported by Alarm.com, including those from Brinks Home Security (formerly MONI), Vector Security, Guardian Protection Services and LiveWatch.
The integration will allow homeowners to remotely control access to the front door, manage their security system and connect to multiple devices around the home via the Alarm.com app.
“The August Smart Lock Pro is the most trusted, full-featured solution homeowners can install on their front door,” states Dale Pistilli, vice president of sales & marketing for August Home in an announcement. .“The addition of interoperability with Alarm.com-powered security systems further demonstrates our dedication to providing our customers with the highest level of security and convenience possible.”
The August Smart Lock Pro is Z-Wave Plus-certified, based on the 500 Series hardware platform, and features the S2 security framework, the highest level of security in the industry, according to the announcement.
With support for Z-Wave Plus, the new lock is designed to integrate with popular security alarm panels, control systems and hubs. The August Smart Lock Pro is a retrofit lock which attaches to existing deadbolt locks, simplifying installation and giving homeowners the option to continue using their existing keys.
Among integration feature sets, Alarm.com’s Scenes incorporates August Smart Lock Pro to provide one-touch automation sequences where multiple connected devices respond to a single command. For example, via the “Home” scene users can unlock the door, disarm the security system, adjust the lights and more.
The August Smart Lock Pro is available for professional installers at wholesale pricing with a two-year limited warranty through August distribution partners, including ADI, Anixter, AVAD, Volutone, Wave Electronics, Worthington and 21st Century Distribution
