Our Signature Selection (with control4)We Are More is partnered with Control4. That partnership includes all the benefits of having a wider range of services and products to offer. Control4 is an established, trustworthy, reputable brand, and that’s why we work with them. We Are More holds those same values, and signature audio is part of our standard. Let's look into the three top aspects of signature speakers. Wide dispersion is important for optimal sound quality. Signature is known for this feature that doesn't allow room for any hiccups in sound. You get a rich and full audio experience from one speaker, imagine adding two in the mix, or five-- what a great sound system! Fullness immerses the listener in their audio. You can count on a more natural, real, live sound without any holes or gaps. This gives signature the ability to exhibit locked in audio without having to put on headphones. It's an unmatched experience, and much appreciated. Flat frequency response goes hand in hand with signature’s wide dispersion. A clean cut frequency response gives pure sound to even the largest speakers. Signature leaves the listener with audio precision so you always hear what you want to, and nothing you don’t. The last thing that ties signature together and sets it apart from other audio system speakers is its low distortion. What’s distortion? It can be defined as those buzzing, growling, high pitched squealing, sometimes white noise sounds that come from speakers. Distortion is often a result of amplified or electric musical instruments. The feedback can be pretty annoying to be honest, but signature takes those irritants away. Always leaving the room with a crisp, clear sound, that signature is proud to provide. Whether it’s for a theater room, a studio, a radio production, or any kind of entertainment for viewing or casting, we choose signature audio. We Are More only installs products that we trust in, because we know you’ll trust in them too. Contact us for a free consultation and how we can get you set up with a sound system your ears have never heard before.

The Neeo Remote From Control4The months of November, December, and January are usually the busiest of the year. Prepping for Thanksgiving, gift shopping, Christmas, New Years, and everything in between-- it really gets the mind racing and, oftentimes, scattered! Wouldn’t it be nice to have some kind of pause button? A play button? A rewind and fast forward button too? Maybe some magical place where you could access multiple things all at once so you could find it when you need it most? Yes, it would be nice. Thankfully we don’t need magic to have a piece of sanity, say hello to the Neeo remote.
“What exactly does Neeo control?” I’m glad you asked! Not only does Neeo control your tv like any basic remote, while giving you all your channels, stations, and apps embedded at the tip of your fingers on screen, the Neeo also gives you control of your lights, your music, your security system, the temperature, and so much more!  Never worry about battery life either. The Neeo remote knows when it's not in use and falls asleep to ensure longevity. Neeo then wakes up at the touch of a hand. The compact charging station is a perfect place to keep Neeo when not in use. Easily kept on any counter, bookshelf, or tv stand. Even if Neeo doesn’t get a charge, Neeo’s battery can last five days without any assistance. In a rush? Turn off every light in your home at the touch of a button. Just got in bed but forgot to lock the doors? Lock them from the comfort of your bed. A little too warm? Turn up the AC without leaving your desk. Let the Neeo remote give you some control, especially during the holiday season. Contact We Are More about Control4 systems and get your Neeo remote stat! Aloha!

When Looking for A Good Security System, Here's What You Shouldn't Find Before opting to have a security system installed, you’ve probably done your research on what you want. Have you researched what you don’t need? Don’t worry if you didn’t, we’ve done it for you! Let’s dive into what not to look for in a security system.
Security surveillance consists of many factors. The biggest of them being accountability. If you ever stumble across a full security package with sensors, 24/7 surveillance, professional monitoring, alarms, and the like, plus monthly payments, then you should be getting what you pay for. However, always make sure there’s some form of contract. Don’t look for a system with monthly payments that doesn’t have a contract. Speaking of payments, with security systems, you will always get what you pay for. If you spend five dollars a month on your security surveillance, then you will get five dollars worth of service. Likewise if you spend a hundred dollars on security surveillance, then you will also get that much in service. Do not simply look to get a security system because of the price. Talk to the professionals and settle on what you need, because that’s what will make your surveillance worth it. You know what else is worth it? Customer service! You might find the best security plan out there with everything you need that is totally worth the money, but don’t let the security package fool you. Customer service should also be on your list of needs, and without good service, the security package won't be so great. If you’re paying for a professional service, don’t settle for unprofessional help. Get to know the company you are entrusting your safety to and make sure they will be working for you every step of the way. A great customer service team is also the best idea to go with for security surveillance installations. If you’re only in need of a single camera and you don’t need help with installation, it’s a good option to just install the camera on your own. On the other side of things, if you have a full package to install and zero experience or clue of how to DIY, please have the company install it for you. Don’t look for systems you can install on your own, find one that can be professionally installed so it can work properly without hassle. Other than those four “don’t(s),” you’re good to go! Look for a trusted company like We Are More to rely on. Safety is nothing to gamble with, so take it seriously. Look for security that works the way it should. Great Light Options A simple tip to enhance security on your property is to get lights installed on pathways, driveways, hedge/tree/garden areas, and all entrances. Aside from security surveillance and alarm systems, installing lights on any property is a must for optimal security protection. It might seem basic, and it is, but some might overlook this first step to protecting any property. Here are 5 great light options for any yard or driveway. In-Ground Lights are -- just that. In the ground. They are great at blending in with all landscapes and staying hidden. Perfect for those who only want to showcase their lighting at night. Lantern Style lights are perfect for those who want their light fixtures to be seen at all times. According to Y Lighting ideas, “Driveway lights with a lantern design gives your front yard an “enchanted garden” feel.” They are sure to make any landscape intriguing, while still protecting it from unwanted attention.  Light Poles come in all shapes and sizes. Whether a property calls for something overhead to light up a wider area, or something shorter to offer some romantic lighting on a pathway, these lights get the job done by keeping things lit.  Hanging Lights are super trendy. They blend into any design and they’re good for people who like to spend their nights outdoors. String type lighting isn’t harsh, but it’s good enough to brighten up otherwise dark areas and keep intruders away. Mushroom Lights look like mushrooms! This style of lighting is great for walkways. Instead of shooting light straight up, it’s deflected downward towards the ground. Lighting is then concentrated on the path instead of what’s around the path. Lighting is just a good idea. It’s nice being able to design a driveway, pathway, garden, or yard with unique and beautiful lighting features that cater to individual taste. More importantly, outdoor lighting is an easy way to keep an eye on any property. Always maintain peace of mind knowing that simple protection is a light switch away. Call We Are More for any lighting questions or installation needs!   Here Are The Top 14 things Burglars Like To StealWhy do burglars steal? It’s an awful thing to do! The first thought would be that they are in dire need of whatever it is they’re taking, the second thought is that they like the adrenaline of it, and the third is that they can make a whole lot of money off of what they take. Businesses and homes need to be protected with security systems to ensure that burglars don’t get away with their schemes. Here are the top 14 things that most burglars like to steal so that people are aware of how important it is to have a security system. 1. CashIt can’t be traced, it can’t be closed like a credit card, and it’s easy to carry. Make sure to keep large amounts of money in a safe place, like the bank. If you like having cash on hand, think of getting a small vault that isn’t easy to lift, or put cash in an uncommon area like under the kitchen sink. 2. JewelryPrecious metals and stones used for jewelry can be sold for a high price, most times for more than what they were originally purchased for. Jewelry boxes are pretty but these are also good items to keep in a vaulted safe. Especially items that are rarely worn but cost a fortune 3. Prescription DrugsThese can be taken for self-use and also sold or made into other types of illegal drugs. Most people don’t think of needing to hide their prescription drugs, but medication is one of the first things a burglar would steal during an intrusion, so think twice.  4. ElectronicsHand held devices are the easiest to take, and most often can be sold for more than larger electronics. Example: Smartphones are usually more expensive than televisions. They most often also hold personal information on them, so it's wise to put passcodes on smartphones. 5. IdentityLike smartphones, mail, credit cards, birth certificates and anything with names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, or any other kind of personal information can be used to take a person's identity. 6. ClothingMostly pertaining to designer or name brand clothing and/or shoes. These pieces are easy to carry and can sell for a high price. 7. LiquorThough alcohol is usually stolen for self-indulgence, more expensive wines and hard liquor is taken to be sold. 8. KeysIf someone steals keys, they then have access to whatever those keys are meant for. If they can match keys to what the correct openings, burglars can then they can steal cars, mail, let themselves in and out of homes, businesses, offices, storage units and so on. 9. Art or Antique/Collectable PiecesThese pieces are usually easy to carry, or can be sold for a lot. Expensive art pieces on display in or outdoors should always have cameras on them. 10. Groceries or Non-Perishable Food ItemsFood items are most often stolen by those who can’t afford to buy their own food, and sometimes by those who are frightened of going to stores because they are a runaway or a fugitive who doesn’t want to be spotted buying food. Let me take this time to say, those who are in need of food are plenty. Not just in third world countries but also in our own community. If there’s food sitting on shelves needing to be used, please consider donating it to a homeless shelter or food drive before letting it meet the garbage or the hands of a thief. 11. Firearms/GunsFirearms are easily sold for a high price. These items are valuable to many and when stolen, they can be sold quickly because people who buy them aren’t required to have a carrying license or permit. Owning guns calls for a means of safe keeping. Security alarms, motion sensors, and cameras would be good to have in an area where guns are kept, even for the safety of children in the home. 12. ToolsGood tools are expensive, easy to carry, and hard to find once they’ve been taken. Larger equipment is harder to take, but if no one is home, burglars will find a way to steal whatever it is. Outdoor security is just as important as indoor security and will keep all tools, big and small, safe. 13. Lawn FurnitureNothing like having a beautiful porch swing taken in the middle of the night. Right? Wrong. Don’t worry, outdoor surveillance systems won’t let that happen. 14. BikesBMX bikes, cruising bikes, mountain bikes, or kids bikes often end up on the “most stolen” lists. They can sell for a good amount of money and also be useful to those who need transportation. Now that you know what’s most wanted on a thief's mind, here are some things that should be most wanted on yours; security cameras, motion detectors, sensors, smart locks, security lighting, security control, alarm systems, and/or solar powered security appliances. If you have any questions or concerns, call We Are More today for a free quote and consultation on security products that would best fit your desired properties and efficiently protect what’s important.  Things to Know About Smart Security We Are More encourages everyone to thoroughly think through their decisions when wanting to implement new features in their homes, offices, and any other property. Installations of any kind should be done after consideration of pros and cons. We’ve put together a little checklist to make smart security an easier decision as it applies (and doesn’t apply) to your personal needs.  The Pros of Smart Security-Affordable Doesn’t hurt to spend a dime on something that protects your fortunes. -Easy management of alarms Want your smart alarms to go off with certain things but not others? No problem, We Are More can install smart security to work with your wants and needs. -Catch things before they happen How nice would it be to detect a water leak before it floods your house? Or to catch a burglar before they steal anything from your shop? Very! -Monitor and control from anywhere in the world Being able to view and monitor your property even when you’re on vacation or just across the street at the neighbors house, is a great feature. -Less stress and more sleep If you’re an avid worrier when it comes to what’s most important, put your mind at ease and just get smart security installed! -Lighting and shading control Lighting and shading can be included with or added to most smart security installations. Check with We Are More to match you with the right provider before installations. -Customizable and able to link with other smart devices Smart security is able to connect with other devices, such as lighting (mentioned above), Amazon Alexa, and other smart appliances. -Increased home value If you ever decide to move, leaving your smart security connected to your house will automatically allow the value of your home to increase. “Also includes smart security” is a great line to have in your home description for buyers. -Did we mention SAFETY Let’s not forget to state the obvious; smart security keeps you, your home, belongings, family, employees, and treasures SAFE. These are only a few practical benefits that some people might overlook. Take some time to research smart security and add to your own pros list.  The Cons of Smart SecurityThe CONS list actually took me a while to come up with, but here’s what I got. -Power outages may affect your security But they don’t have to. Get a security system that has a backup energy source, like solar powered cameras. Yes, those are a thing, and We Are More would be more than happy to set you up with them. -Finding a fit for your specific needs Please don’t just choose a random system because it looks nice or the price seems right. You will want smart security that caters specifically to what you’re looking for. -Internet connection Smart security often runs off of Bluetooth connections. Making sure to have a reliable WIFI server plays an important part in security systems. -Device compatibility Yes, most security systems are compatible with other smart devices, but making sure you have the correct compatible devices is crucial. Though smart systems can pair with multiple devices, not every device is programmed to sync with a smart system. No matter the pros and cons, we know protecting what’s important will always be a priority. With that in mind, what’s the hold up? Call We Are More for a free consultation on quality and efficient smart security.  |
