Ageing well at home: preserving the elderly's independence
People aged 65 and over now represent almost one in five of the UK population¹, and this share continues to grow. Today, 8 in 10 of them want to stay in their own home for as long as possible².
This desire is important when planning home improvements, whether for yourself or your loved ones. As people age, some everyday actions become more difficult. Closing shutters in the evening or getting up at night without risking a fall may seem simple, but they represent daily challenges for older adults.
En In the UK, around 2.5 million people over the age of 65 suffer at least one fall each year - the vast majority of them living at home³. Faced with this type of accident, staying at home can be compromised and loss of independence may seem inevitable.
However, a well-equipped home with a high-performance home automation system changes everything, making daily life easier for the elderlyand their caregivers. There is no need to redo everything. A few home automation devices tailored to older people are enough to simplify daily life, improve safety and restore peace of mind.

Getting up at night without fear
Three o’clock in the morning, your loved one wakes up and the hallway is dark. Searching for the switch by touch is precisely where the risk of falling begins.
Placed next to the bed, the Tyxia connected switch turns on the hallway lights with a single click. With one button, lights will turn on from the bedroom to the bathroom for safe movement. Our products also feature voice control, allowing your loved one to control lighting by voice via Google Home or Alexa.

Easily turning your home into a connected home
connected homes are accessible to everyone! With only a micromodule installed behind an existing switch, you can make your roller shutters or lighting remotely controllable. This is known as retrofit! You can connect what you already have and adapt the motorisation of your devices without major work.
Staying present even from a distance
Home security is not limited to falls. Your loved one is expecting a visitor but you are not there? Delta Dore connected cameras let you check in real time who is ringing the doorbell, from your smartphone. A simple and reassuring check.
For the prevention of household risks, the Tyxal+ Hub, combined with Delta Dore technical detectors, sends you a notification directly to the Delta Dore app in the event of fire, water leak or power outage.
And in case of intrusion, the sirens in your alarm system trigger automatically. You stay informed in real time. Anxiety is reduced thanks to the smart home. Your loved one feels supported, even when you are far away.
