Local Issues
Securing Your Home in Les Houches: the constraints of the valley entrance
As the gateway to the Chamonix Valley, Les Houches combines traditional hamlets with chalets scattered across the hillsides. From Coupeau to Vaudagne, from Fouilly to Les Trabets, all the way to the base of the Bellevue and Prarion slopes, each area has its own unique character.
Some chalets are isolated, set back from busy roads and largely hidden from view by the surrounding area. They often remain unoccupied for several weeks between stays. This is precisely what burglars are looking for.
The climate adds a significant challenge. In winter, snowdrifts interfere with low-end detectors, and power outages are more frequent. An alarm system in Les Houches must therefore rely on outdoor detectors that are unaffected by snow and on an autonomous transmission system capable of sending alerts even without electricity.

Remote monitoring in Les Houches: 24/7 responsiveness and on-site troubleshooting

Video Surveillance in Les Houches
In Les Houches, video surveillance meets two essential needs. The first: clear identification. Our 4K cameras handle intense snow glare perfectly and deliver a clear image day and night. The second: keeping a watchful eye on your chalet. From your smartphone, you can check at a glance the condition of the exterior after a snowstorm, whether the snowplow has cleared the driveway, or that everything is quiet during the off-season. We position the cameras at key access points—the driveway, main entrance, garage, and ski storage room—while ensuring strict respect for the privacy of the neighborhood during installation.

TEMPORARY SECURITY & CONSTRUCTION
Chalet Construction Site in Les Houches: Rent a Construction Site Alarm
At the entrance to the Chamonix Valley, the construction of new chalets and the renovation of farmhouses require high-quality materials and sophisticated technical equipment: copper, roof trusses, professional tools, and heat pumps.

- 100% battery-powered
- Multi-carrier 4G transmission
