According to our alarm system expert
Secure your home with the Somfy Protect Home Alarm. The set consists of a base station, 3 magnetic contacts, 2 remote controls, a motion sensor, and a siren. You can place the magnetic contact next to windows and doors and position the motion sensor in a logical spot in the room you want to secure. The motion sensor won't detect pets weighing up to 25kg, which is useful if you have a dog or cat. When the magnetic contacts or the sensor detect something, you'll receive a notification in the app on your smartphone (iOS and Android), so you'll be up to date with what's happening no matter where you are. A 90-decibel audio signal will be triggered on site. You can expand the alarm system to include up to 50 sensors to secure your home completely.

Bought this product because a neighbor was broken into. Ultimately opted for this alarm because it takes pets into account. Unfortunately, this works differently in practice. False alarms several times because the cats walked past the separate camera (also Somfy) and past the motion sensor. Consulted Somfy Netherlands and they reported very curtly: "Well, it's a movement, we can't do anything about that".
Eventually the motion detector was positioned differently after a lot of trying and got a different camera via Coolblue. Problem is now solved.

Nice and all, but for this price it should work flawlessly. The 'intellitag' does not detect that the sliding window is being slid open, nor does it detect vibrations such as on the frame. Most thieves don't pound on a window to open it. In my opinion, the opening of a sliding window can never be detected without the principle of a real magnetic contact consisting of two parts. Our sliding window rolls very lightly without any vibration... Then just wait for Nest Secure

The Somfy Protect alarm system has been in use for some time now. As a rule, it likes it and works fine. However, there are a number of points that you should pay attention to, or be aware of.
The system looks good. The installation and the software speak for themselves. You really set up the system like that. In my case, however, the base station regularly lost its connection to the internet for the first few days, while the AP is only a few meters away. In the end it turned out to be because my 2.4GHz and 5 Ghz WiFi networks had the same name. After I set up a separate 2.4Ghz only Wifi network, the problem was gone and the connection is very stable.
The reception of the base station is sufficient but does not stop. We have a single-family house, the reception of the sensors is just on. BG and 1st floor are going well.
What works very well is the integration with Olisto. When the last person leaves the house, the alarm switches on automatically. When the first person comes home, the alarm switches off automatically. If the alarm goes off, you can also let your HUE lamps participate, for example. The IFTTT integration also works fine.
We are less positive about the 'intellitag'. This sensor works fine for us on 'normal' doors such as the outside door, but works poorly on the sliding doors that we have. With the alarm activated, it is quite possible to unlock, open, close and lock the sliding door without any problems. The alarm will only go off if you open the sliding door relatively hard. A burglar who takes it easy can probably enter through the sliding door without any problems :s
We have decided to leave the 'intellitag' on the sliding doors, but have also installed Somfy indoor cameras in the relevant rooms. These cameras also function as motion sensors. So if someone enters through the sliding door unnoticed, the motion sensor will catch this. Well, solved but not quite right of course. The cameras are, however, highly recommended. The privacy shutter gives a good feeling, the image is also good.
