Home Security
& Control

Your home,
connected your way.

Home security systems, connected home systems, lighting, home theater and multi-room audio, designed as one user-friendly system for homes across New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The approach

Connected home technology was once expensive, complicated and difficult to use. It doesn’t have to be.

Connected devices at home should make everyday life simpler. A glance at your phone shows the kids playing in the backyard. Your lighting, entertainment and security systems work together effortlessly. At Cooper Technology Group, we start by understanding your needs, design a system that works for you, and leave room to expand as your lifestyle evolves.

Convenience first

Connected home systems make everyday living simpler, giving you effortless control of your home whenever you need it.

Security first

See who is at the door, and know the garage is closed.

Others want certainty: live video of the front door, a text if the power fails and another when it is restored, proof that every door is shut.

Residential systems

8 disciplines, one team

01

Security & Surveillance

Monitored burglary, fire, carbon monoxide and flood protection, with cameras placed from a survey of your property. We install and service thousands of systems across New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

  • Honeywell
  • Resideo
  • Kidde
  • Hanwha
  • Cellular radio
  • Smoke, heat, CO, glass break, motion, door, window, temperature and flood sensors
  • Hardwired, wireless or a mix, chosen room by room
  • Cellular communication, more reliable than phone or internet lines
  • Battery backup in the panel for power outages
  • Hardwired IP cameras to a local NVR, or Wi-Fi cameras where wiring is impractical
  • Doorbell cameras with instant alerts and two-way talk

Placement matters. A smoke sensor within three feet of a supply duct collects dust and trips false alarms. Details like this are why we install every system ourselves.

Questions

Residential questions, answered.

Something else on your mind? Call (877) 266-7379.

Often not for a whole house. Provider routers are built for convenience, and coverage usually fades at the edges of a home. Locks, cameras and speakers need a strong, steady signal, so we typically recommend a current router with wired access points placed where they are needed.

A properly installed, monitored system detects fire, carbon monoxide and intrusion, and gets help moving while you are asleep or away. Placement and monitoring are what make the difference, which is why we design and install every system ourselves.

No. Our systems communicate by cellular radio, which is more reliable than internet phone service and does not depend on copper lines, which are being phased out in many areas.

Yes. We use hardwired devices where walls are accessible and wireless sensors where they are not, so an older home can be protected without opening up finished walls.

A 4K display, 4K sources such as a streaming device or player, a fast and stable internet connection, and HDMI cabling rated for the signal. We check every link in that chain when we design a room.
