A smarter, safer, more connected home — powered by Dana Smart Homes.
When it comes to protecting your home and family, security systems must be reliable, easy to use, and fully integrated with your smart home ecosystem. For years, Honeywell (now Resideo) has been a trusted name in home security. Their newest release, the First Alert ProSeries platform, represents a major leap forward — combining modern hardware, mobile-first control, smart sensors, and professional-grade reliability.
Now, with full integration into Control4, Dana Smart Homes can bring your home security, automation, and lifestyle technology together into one seamless experience.
What Is the Honeywell First Alert ProSeries?
The ProSeries is Honeywell/Resideo’s newest all-in-one wireless security and life-safety platform. It is designed for modern homes and offers:
✓ Elegant Wireless Keypads & Touchscreens
A sleek, tablet-style touchscreen keypad replaces the old plastic keypads. It looks great on the wall and is simple enough for every member of the family to use.
✓ Next-Generation Wireless Sensors
Highly reliable encrypted sensors for:
- Door & window contacts
- Motion detectors
- Glass-break sensors
- Smoke & CO detectors
- Flood & leak sensors
- Indoor sirens
- Outdoor sensors
- Keyfobs & medical pendants
✓ Built-In Smart Features
The system supports automation triggers, user codes, scheduling, remote arm/disarm, and secure app access.
✓ Professional Monitoring or Local-Only
Depending on the client’s needs, the ProSeries can be:
- Fully monitored by a central station
- Or used for local alerts only
- Or integrated directly into Control4 without monthly fees
Why the ProSeries Is a Game Changer for Modern Homes
1. It’s Safe and Reliable
The ProSeries uses encrypted wireless technology, which means it’s far more secure than older DSC or Vista systems that many homes still use.
2. Expandable & Flexible
The platform supports up to dozens of zones, allowing it to scale from condos to large custom estates — perfect for the homes you work on in Toronto, Vaughan, Muskoka, and Oakville.
3. Clean, Modern Aesthetics
No more outdated beige boxes.
The new keypads look like modern smart-home touchscreens.
4. Better Life-Safety Integration
Smoke and CO detectors communicate directly with the panel, offering enhanced alerts and automations.
5. App Control for the Whole Family
Whether you’re traveling or working downtown, you can arm, disarm, and see alerts instantly.
Integration with Control4: The Ultimate Smart-Home Security Experience
One of the biggest advantages of the ProSeries system is its native integration with Control4, giving your home a unified, seamless automation experience.
Dana Smart Homes can tie the ProSeries into your Control4 system so that:
✓ Your Keypad and Touchscreen Panel Sync with Control4
Arm, disarm, see zone statuses, and receive alerts directly from your Control4 interface.
✓ Smart Lighting Automates with Security
Examples:
- When you disarm the system, hallway lights turn on.
- When the alarm triggers, exterior lights and accent lighting flash.
- At night, arming “Stay” mode lowers the lights into night mode.
✓ Cameras and Security Work Together
ProSeries sensors can trigger Control4 actions such as:
- Start recording on your Dahua/Hikvision/Control4 cameras
- Display the live video feed on your T4 touchscreen
- Notify you through Control4 push notifications
✓ Door Locks and Shades Integrate Seamlessly
- Arming “Away” locks all smart locks
- Disarming can raise shades or set the thermostat
- Opening a protected door can turn on pathway lighting
✓ True Whole-Home Scenes
Combine security + audio + lighting + climate automation:
“Goodnight” Scene:
- Arms the security system
- Turns off lights
- Lowers thermostats
- Locks all doors
- Closes shades
“Welcome Home” Scene:
- Disarms security
- Turns on hallway and kitchen lights
- Plays your favourite playlist
- Adjusts climate for comfort
This is where the ProSeries becomes more than just an alarm system — it becomes part of the lifestyle.
