lifestyles. Innovative features allow homeowners to protect and control
their homes from anywhere. Customers can receive texts when someone

doors and check on their home, children or family pet from a
smartphone, tablet or PC.
Bell Aliant's team of trusted and reliable technicians is specially
trained and certified to set-up and customize the system for every
customer.
