Keeping an Eye on Spring: Arlo Wants to Be Your Security Sidekick

Ah, spring. The season of budding flowers, longer days, and—let’s be honest—pollen that’s plotting your demise. While you’re stocking up on allergy meds (Costco’s generic versions are basically a public service at this point), it’s also the time of year when everyone starts thinking about sprucing things up, especially outdoors. And by “sprucing up,” we mean making sure your yard isn’t doubling as the neighborhood’s raccoon rave spot or the unofficial shortcut for door-to-door salespeople. If you’re in the mood to reclaim your turf—and make sure your packages aren’t doing a disappearing act—Arlo has a few gadgets worth checking out.

Feather River Smart Glass Doors Offer 4 Stylish, Energy-Efficient Upgrade Options with Hubspace Integration

At my former home in San Angelo, we had a lovely, glass-paned front door that made everything light and airy during daylight but lacked privacy after dark. We’d begun to avoid the front living room at night, so I added a privacy shade, but operating it was such a pain that we usually left it down. The Home Depot’s new Feather River Smart Glass Doors offer a better, more modern alternative. Pressing a button or giving a voice command to Alexa or Google Assistant switches the door’s glass from clear to opaque for the perfect balance of light and privacy.
