Arlo Announces Strategic Partnership With Kartchner Homes

Partnership will Integrate Arlo’s Video Doorbell into Homes Built by Kartchner Homes


SAN JOSE, Calif. — Apr. 28, 2020Arlo Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ARLO),a leading internet connected security camera brand, and Kartchner Homes, a premier home builder in Utah and Idaho, today announced a strategic partnership to integrate award-winning Arlo’s Video Doorbell into homes built over the next 12 months providing homebuyers a premiere solution in smart entry technology.

Kartchner Homes has selected the Arlo Video Doorbell for its class-leading performance and features. Recently recognized by CNET as the “Best Video Doorbell of 2020”1, the Arlo Video Doorbell is a smart front entry monitoring solution that offers an industry-leading vertical field-of-view, high-definition video resolution, clear two-way audio, and a sophisticated design to complement any home style or design.

“Home building is a key vertical market for Arlo as we continue to expand beyond our retail and e-commerce channels. More than ever, home builders are looking to integrate smart home technologies as an added value and differentiation within the market,” said Tom Babula, SVP worldwide sales at Arlo. “This strategic partnership with Kartchner Homes will provide homeowners with the industry’s most intuitive front entry monitoring solutions. With Arlo Video Doorbell being compatible with both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa voice assistant ecosystems, new Kartchner Homes’ homeowners will be able to easily integrate Arlo Video Doorbell with the connected home ecosystem of their choice.”

“Kartchner Homes seeks to offer convenience and value to our customers, so when selecting smart features for our homes, the Arlo Video Doorbell was an obvious choice,” said Evan DeLong, Kartchner Homes Smart Home Specialist. “With one of the most competitive price points, Arlo has packed their video doorbell with all the same features as their pricier competitors, plus some. We love its notification features and slim form. We are excited to introduce this amenity to all of our customers moving forward.”

The future residents of Kartchner Homes with built-in Arlo Video Doorbells will enjoy smart notifications to detect front entry activity, along with two-way audio allowing them to speak with visitors without having to answer the door. By capturing footage in HD resolution and a square aspect ratio, the Arlo Video Doorbell allows users to fully view packages on the ground, or visitors from head to toe – ensuring no detail goes unnoticed. The Arlo Video Doorbell also makes answering the door as easy as answering the phone. While competitors utilize a multi-step notification and response process, the Arlo Video Doorbell delivers direct-to-mobile video calls for quick and easy reply, resulting in a streamlined process for real- time communication with guests.

  • Optimized front entry view - industry-leading vertical field-of-view with an optimized 1:1 aspect ratio allows for a complete view of the front door
