Lennar, one of the nation’s top homebuilders, and security products manufacturer, Ring, have teamed up to create Lennar Communities Connected by Ring, a suite of connected home products in new Lennar homes managed by the Ring app.
Lennar Communities Connected by Ring enhances The Connected Home by Lennar with a simplified customer experience that aims to set a new industry standard for how communities are built and enjoyed.
The Connected Home by Lennar integrates technology features such as security and convenience in a suite of premiere smart devices, reflecting Lennar’s efforts to design and build homes that meet the needs of families well into the future.
Features of Lennar Communities Connected by Ring
The home has become even more central to everyday life as families count on it not only as safe shelter – but also as office, school, gym, and restaurant. Homes in Lennar Communities Connected by Ring start with the Ring Alarm security system and Ring Video Doorbell Pro, integrating technologies developed by brands such as Level, eero, Moen, Honeywell Home by Resideo and myQ smart garage technology to create a unified experience that emphasizes convenience and comfort alongside safety and security. Homeowners can control their compatible locks, garage door, thermostat and alarms, as well as get alerts for leak detection, all through the Ring app.
Additional compatible devices can also be added and customized to each family’s unique needs. Whether they’re home or away, Lennar homeowners now have control and awareness of their home from anywhere.
Lennar LENx Technology
“Technology and innovation are a core focus of Lennar’s homebuilding and financial services platforms,” said Lennar Executive Chairman, Stuart Miller. “Through our LENx technology division, we have invested in and innovated with best-in-class brands to re-imagine important elements of the home purchase, finance, and living experience. Our strategic relationships with Ring, Alloy, Level, Moen, eero, and others in developing connected communities are an important extension of our strategy. In particular, we strongly believe that the simplicity and security focus of Ring coupled with the company’s aggressive innovation cycle is quickly becoming the industry standard.
“Technology permeates every aspect of our lives, and our goal in building it into our homes is to enhance the way families live for years to come,” Miller added. “Ring’s mission of making neighborhoods safer aligns perfectly with ours – not only by connecting neighbors to one another, but also bringing an entire suite of smart home products together in an intelligent way that simplifies life rather than complicating it.”
“At Ring we want to continue raising the bar for innovation in community security, and we’re thrilled to work with Lennar to create a secure, connected lifestyle for homebuyers,” said Jamie Siminoff, founder and chief inventor at Ring. “By building entire communities of connected homes, we are able to bring neighbors together like never before. This collaboration offers an opportunity for homebuyers to live in a home that is designed to adapt specifically to their unique needs while enabling a connected experience across the entire community.”
