Security today is about more than protecting buildings. It is about protecting people, vehicles and having control wherever you are.
The HomeControl2.0 app, developed by Pyronix, transforms your alarm system into a powerful personal security and vehicle protection platform. From a smartphone panic button to integrated CarDefender vehicle protection, everything works together through one secure app.
At Oakpark Group, we design and install professional security systems that integrate seamlessly with Pyronix technology, giving you smarter protection with complete mobile control.

Smartphone Panic Button App – Instant Emergency Alerts
The HomeControl2.0 panic button app feature allows you to raise an emergency alert directly from your smartphone.
By pressing and holding the SOS button in the app, you can:
- Send an emergency alert to trusted contacts
- Share your live GPS location
- Instantly notify your chosen security bubble
Unlike traditional panic fobs that only work within your property, this smartphone panic button works anywhere your phone has signal.
This feature is ideal for:
- Vulnerable individuals
- Lone workers
- Teenagers travelling alone
- Anyone wanting additional personal protection
It effectively turns your Pyronix alarm app into a portable personal security solution.
Personal Help Alarm – Create a Trusted Safety Network
The Personal Help Alarm within HomeControl2.0 allows you to create a trusted group of family members or colleagues who are notified if you trigger an emergency alert.
How the personal help alarm works
- Download the HomeControl2.0 app on iOS or Android
- Add your trusted contacts
- Activate the SOS feature if needed
- Your contacts receive an instant location-based alert

Importantly, the system does not track your movements continuously. Your location is only shared when you activate the panic button. This makes the personal help alarm privacy-conscious while still providing genuine reassurance.
For families and businesses managing lone workers, this is a simple but powerful safety tool.
CarDefender – Integrated Vehicle Protection via Your Alarm System
Vehicle crime remains a significant issue across the UK. Pyronix CarDefender links your vehicle directly to your alarm system, creating a fully integrated vehicle protection system.

If vibration or tampering is detected:
- Your alarm activates
- You receive an instant notification via the HomeControl2.0 app
- You can respond immediately
Whether your car is parked on your driveway or roadside, you are alerted straight away.
For homeowners investing in perimeter security, CarDefender adds an intelligent extra layer of protection.
