Keep your home connected and protected with smart doorbells, alarms and sensors from Ace Hardware, part of a full lineup of smart home solutions. Explore options from Feit and other brands designed to help you monitor entryways, detect leaks and stay alert to what's happening around the house.
Smart Video Doorbells for Visitor Monitoring
Smart video doorbells let you see, hear and speak with visitors before opening the door. Options typically include wired models that connect to existing doorbell wiring and wireless versions that run on battery power for more flexible placement. Many styles are available in white or black finishes to match an entryway's look.
Video doorbells can integrate with a broader security setup, making them a practical starting point for anyone building out a safety plan for their home.
Environmental & Safety Sensors for Whole-Home Monitoring
These sensors are designed to flag conditions that matter most inside the home. Common types include:
- Water leak sensors:can help detect moisture near appliances, water heaters or basements before a small leak becomes a bigger repair.
- Motion sensors:help you stay aware of activity in hallways, living areas or entry points, and can pair with smart lighting to brighten a room automatically when movement is detected.
- Door and window sensors:alert you when an entry point opens, adding an extra layer of awareness to any room.
Most of these sensors run on battery power, so keeping batteries on hand can help your system stay ready when it matters.
Smart Audible Alarms for Instant Alerts
Audible alarms deliver a clear, in-the-moment sound when a connected sensor detects motion, water or an open door. Placing an alarm in a central area of the home can help provide an immediate alert whenever a paired sensor is triggered elsewhere in the house. Wireless models are often selected for this kind of setup since they allow flexible placement without additional wiring, making them easy to add to an existing sensor network.
How Do Smart Sensors Notify You of an Issue?
Most sensors send a push alert to a connected app over your home Wi-Fi as soon as an event is detected. Many models also include a built-in LED indicator that flashes locally, giving a quick visual cue even before you check your phone.
Do You Need a Separate Hub for Smart Sensors and Alarms?
Many smart sensors and alarms connect directly to your home Wi-Fi network, so a separate hub is typically not required. Some households may still prefer a central app to manage multiple devices in one place, which can make day-to-day monitoring more convenient.
