How to incorporate geofencing with your Fort Wayne security system
When using geofencing with your home’s security, you’ll discover a wealth of options. Before installing your system, find out exactly what you can set up. There is a definite security boost as you can order your system to automatically lock your front door, arm your system, and even bring down your garage door while you leave. On the contrary, when you return for the day, you can take advantage of geofencing to open your garage door, unlock your main entry, or illuminate lights.
You’ll be happy to have extra convenience and the greater potential for energy savings along with enhanced security. Just consider having the ability to change your home’s comfort levels automatically based on where you are. There’s no reason to operate your A/C or furnace at full throttle when you’re not in the house. As an alternative, you can program it to automatically adjust when you depart and then switch back to your preferred settings upon your return.
There are quite a few devices you might control via geofencing, including:
- Smart thermostats
- Door locks
- Smart bulbs and plugs
- Garage doors
- Cameras
- Motion detectors
Want an alternative to geofencing? Set schedules and automations
In addition to geofencing, some security systems allow you to program automations and schedules. For instance, you can program your doors to lock or outside lighting to engage at particular moments each day. You could even have a few actions happen instantaneously when you’re going to bed. Or you may program custom “If This, Then That” rules such as unlocking your front doors whenever a smoke detector goes off.
