A Case Study with Alarm.com and Digit1919
As the real estate market in Dallas continues to evolve, so do the demands of modern apartment living. Today’s residents are looking not just for a place to live, but a community that offers convenience, safety, and cutting-edge technology. One apartment community in The Cedars neighborhood of Dallas is leading the charge, transforming traditional apartment living into a smart, secure, and enjoyable experience. In this article, we’ll cover how Protectus Security and Alarm.com are setting a new standard for apartment communities in Dallas-Fort Worth, creating smart apartment communities that residents are proud to call home.
The Future of North Texas Apartment Living with Smart Security
Smart Technology Integration
Protectus Security has partnered with Alarm.com to bring an unparalleled level of smart technology to apartment communities throughout the DFW metroplex. The Alarm.com app allows residents to control their thermostats, locks, and alarm systems all from one user-friendly interface, and allows the property management team to remotely control alarm systems, thermostats, and locks in vacant units, and view the property’s video cameras as well. This integration not only enhances convenience but also significantly boosts security.
First in Texas
Digit1919 is proud to be the first apartment community in Texas to offer this level of integrated smart technology. This pioneering move sets them apart from other properties and positions them as trendsetters in the real estate market.
“Our goal was to set ourselves apart from what’s happening in the area and be more of a trendsetter,” says Deric Medina, one of the key figures behind this smart community. “We wanted to offer something that no other apartment community in Texas had offered before.”
The Technology: A Seamless Integration of Smart Features
At the heart of this smart apartment community is the Alarm.com app, which controls everything from thermostats and locks to the security system in each apartment home. This seamless integration of technology allows residents to manage multiple aspects of their home environment from a single, user-friendly platform.
“It’s very user-friendly, very easy, and very convenient,” says Medina. “This technology has been very surprising day by day for me. I have never used a technology or an application like this at any community that I’ve ever worked for or even lived at.”
With the Alarm.com app, residents have the power to control their living environment in ways that were previously unimaginable. Whether they’re adjusting the temperature before arriving home, ensuring their doors are locked while away, or monitoring their apartment for security purposes, residents can do it all with just a few taps on their smartphone.
Enhanced Resident Experience
For residents like Jazzi Black, the decision to live Digit1919 was heavily influenced by the advanced technology offered by Protectus Security. The Alarm.com app not only simplifies her daily tasks, but also provides a heightened sense of safety. Knowing that you can control your home’s security features from your smartphone adds an invaluable layer of peace of mind.
“Not only do I have something that makes living here easier, but makes me feel safe too.”
The Partnership: Working with Protectus Security and Alarm.com
Creating a smart apartment community requires more than just cutting-edge technology—it requires a partnership with a security provider that understands the unique needs of property management. Protectus Security has been instrumental in ensuring the smooth implementation and ongoing support of the Alarm.com system.
“I work with Protectus every single day, whether it’s by phone call, text message, or email. They have been very helpful with their learning aspect and the training aspect of Alarm.com and this application we have,” says Medina. “The service is there, it’s very prompt, and it just helps our on-site team to create life easier for our residents.”
The Future: Setting a New Standard for Apartment Living in DFW
As Dallas Fort Worth continues to grow, so too will the demand for smart, secure, and connected living environments. This smart apartment community, powered by Protectus Security and Alarm.com, is not just meeting that demand—it’s setting a new standard for what modern apartment living can be.
For property managers and developers looking to create their own smart communities, the success of the Digit1919 project offers valuable insights.
