How to incorporate geofencing with your Bowling Green smart home
When integrating geofencing with your home’s security, you’ll have access to numerous possibilities. Before implementing your system, finding out specifically what you are able to program through your app is a good idea. There is a an undeniable security boost as you can have your system automatically lock your front door, activate your alarm, and even bring down your garage door when 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 turn on lights.
You’ll appreciate extra convenience and the opportunity for utility savings along with improved security. Imagine having the ability to change your home’s temperature automatically in response to your location. There’s no need to run your A/C or furnace at max effort when you’re not in the house. Alternatively, you can set it to promptly change temperatures when you depart and then switch back to your normal settings when you return.
There are various components you can operate through geofencing, including:
- Smart thermostats
- Locking systems
- Smart plugs and lights
- Garage doors
- Surveillance cameras
- Motion detectors
Want an alternative to geofencing? Configure schedules and automations
Besides geofencing, many security systems let you program schedules and automations. To illustrate, you can program your entrances to secure or exterior lighting to engage at designated times each and every day. You might even have multiple actions occur instantaneously when you’re turning in for the night. Or you might program custom “If This, Then That” rules like disengaging your locks whenever a safety alarm goes off.
