SALUS Protect · by SALUS Controls

Security that already speaks to your smart home

Most alarm systems are a second, separate box in the hallway. SALUS Protect is built on the same Zigbee platform as SALUS Smart Home, so a window sensor can raise an alert and drop the heating, and one app shows you the whole house.

Two ways to be protected

One platform, two routes to install it

The same sensors work with either system. What changes is who fits it, and what happens when the alarm goes off.

Professionally monitored

IMMUNITY

The EN Grade 2 flagship system, engineered for residential properties and small businesses. Wireless, customisable, and set up for 24/7 professional monitoring so an alert reaches a response centre rather than only your phone.

  • EN Grade 2 certified for the property types insurers care about
  • 24/7 professional monitoring available
  • Advanced wireless protocol across the sensor range
  • Controlled through the smartphone app

MERLIN

An intruder alert system for homeowners who want to fit it themselves. MERLIN joins the SALUS Controls Smart Home range, so the same app that arms the alarm can also run the heating and the lights.

  • Designed for self-install
  • Integrates with the existing SALUS Controls Smart Home range
  • Monitor the house and control heating and lighting from one app
  • Runs in the SALUS Premium Lite app

Coverage

Five things a home needs watched

Intrusion is the headline, but most household losses are not burglaries. The SALUS Protect range covers the openings, the movement, the smoke and the water.

INTRUSION

Movement inside

Zigbee motion sensors with a 90° detection angle and a pet-immune rating up to 11 kg, so a cat does not become a false alarm. Tamper detection reports interference with the sensor itself.

PERIMETER

Doors and windows

Slim wireless contacts report an opening to the app, and can trigger automation — opening a window can set the heating back instead of fighting it.

FIRE

Smoke

A photoelectric smoke detector with a sound-and-light alarm that also reports over the Zigbee network, so an empty house still tells someone.

WATER

Leaks and pipes

Water leak and pipe sensors catch the slow failures that do the most damage — the ones nobody is home to notice.

RESPONSE

Siren and alerts

A local siren plus push and email alerts, with an optional monitoring centre for the moments when nobody is looking at a phone.

PLATFORM

The same app as the heating

One app for security, temperature, lighting and energy — because a system people already open every day gets used.

How it fits together

Zigbee locally, cloud for the remote parts

The sensors talk to each other and to the gateway over a self-healing Zigbee mesh. Anything you do from outside the house goes through the cloud; anything local still works when the internet does not.

Architecture diagram: door/window, motion, smoke and water sensors and a siren join a self-healing Zigbee 3.0 mesh; a gateway with Zigbee, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth bridges up to 200 devices to the AWS cloud; the cloud feeds the SALUS Premium Lite app, push and email alerts and an optional monitoring centre. A note explains that the mesh and local siren keep working if the connection drops, while remote arm/disarm, schedules, notifications and monitoring need the gateway online.
Local radio for detection, cloud for remote control. Optional professional monitoring sits on top of the same platform.

One app

SALUS Premium Lite

Security, heating, lighting and energy in a single app — the same one that runs the rest of the SALUS Smart Home range.

The SALUS Smart Home app was retired at the end of November 2024 and accounts were migrated to SALUS Premium Lite, with setup guides published in nine languages. The migration is handled for existing users, and the platform is described by SALUS as GDPR compliant.

What you can do from the app

  • Arm and disarm the system
  • See which sensor triggered and when
  • Set automation — a window opening, a motion trigger, a schedule
  • Control heating, lighting and power in the same place

Where the app stops

Push notifications, schedules and remote control all need the gateway online. Detection itself does not — the mesh and the local siren work on their own.

Who makes it

Part of SALUS Controls

SALUS Protect is the security arm of SALUS Controls, the smart home brand launched in 2000 and headquartered for Europe in Rotherham, South Yorkshire since 2004. SALUS Controls is part of the Computime Group, founded in Hong Kong in 1974 and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since 2006.

That matters for a security product: the sensors, the gateway and the app are developed by the same organisation, rather than assembled from a third-party stack.
