How a Remote Start Becomes Part of a Complete Security Package

Remote Start Security

A remote start as part of a full security package ensures both convenience and the knowledge that you’re safeguarding your vehicle. Some drivers assume their factory remote start comes with its own security features. Often, this isn’t the case. Here’s how a remote start can become part of a complete security package.

Picture this: It’s 95 degrees outside and you’re about to get in your car, which is even hotter. In this case, starting your car and cooling it down prior to your drive is a nice convenience. What if we take this a step further and view a remote start as a useful component of a complete security system, combining convenience with peace of mind?

Our cars become treasured personal spaces, especially when we have a long commute. Why not do more to protect them?

A Remote Start with a Full Security System Pairs Convenience and Safety

A complete remote start and security package makes it more convenient and easier to access your vehicle in all kinds of weather, while added security features protect your investment in the event of accidents, break-ins, or theft.

Remote Start Security
A complete package pairs a control module with the remotes you carry, so you can choose the level of feedback and range that suits how you drive.

The simplest remote start is the everyday one-way system, minus the security features. If your car came equipped with a remote start from the factory, this might be what you already have. The next tier up includes anti-theft systems and GPS tracking. Often, a retailer will offer these security features in a full package. Many platforms come with smartphone control, meaning you can lock and unlock your car and start it using an app. There are both monitored and unmonitored systems available. An unmonitored system can be the more cost-effective option, while a monitored system allows the police to respond in the event of a break-in, for example. If you own a higher-end vehicle, a monitored system might make the most sense for you.

Remote Start Security
Security sensors, instant alerts, a starter kill circuit and GPS tracking work together to protect your vehicle from a break-in or theft.

Aftermarket remote start systems come armed with essential sensors to help protect your vehicle from theft. They can offer entryway sensors to detect a potential break-in, while tilt sensors will alert the owner if the vehicle is being towed. Shock sensors will alert the driver to any impacts. This type of system comes equipped with a remote start, making it easy for you to start your car and cool the interior on a hot day, or heat it up on a cold day. As part of a full security system, this convenient remote start feature can’t be beat.

Here’s How to Combine a Remote Start System with Throttle Control Anti-Theft

A throttle control anti-theft device, as part of a full security system, adds even more protection to your car, preventing a would-be thief from speeding away. If you own a higher-end car, consider asking a local dealer about your options in this category. This level of security provides the ultimate coverage and can also include safeguards that prevent valets or other drivers from speeding in your prized possession.

Remote Start Security
Arming the system as you walk away takes a single button press, and a two-way remote confirms that the vehicle locked.

Which Remote Start and Security Option is Right for You?

Now that you’re ready to invest in a remote start and security package, it’s time to think about the investment you’ve already made into your vehicle, your driving habits and where you live. This can help you decide which remote start and security package is right for you. It’s important to remember that the products you choose have to be compatible with your vehicle. Shopping for a new security system can feel overwhelming, so the best thing to do is speak with a qualified retailer. They will be able to make sure the products you’re interested in are compatible with your car. Once you’ve made your decision, their technicians will ensure a seamless, professional installation. This summer has been hotter than ever. Ready to discuss your remote start and security options? Visit a dealer near you to learn more.
