How to integrate geofencing with your Fargo smart home
When incorporating geofencing with your smart home, you’ll have access to a wide range of options. Before hooking up your system, find out exactly what you are able to set up. There is a definite security bonus as you can instruct your system to automatically secure your main entrance, activate your alarm, and even bring down your garage door as you leave. On the other hand, when you return for the day, you can utilize geofencing to raise your garage door, unlock your main entrance, or illuminate lights.
You’ll appreciate additional convenience and the greater potential for energy savings along with improved security. Imagine being able to adjust your home’s comfort levels automatically according to your location. There’s no point in operating your HVAC system at max effort when you’re not in the house. Alternatively, you can set it to automatically update when you exit and then go back to your normal settings as you return.
There are quite a few implements you can control with geofencing, including:
- Smart thermostats
- Door locks
- Smart plugs and lights
- Garage doors
- Video cameras
- Motion sensors
Looking for a geofencing alternative? Configure schedules and automations
In addition to geofencing, many home security systems permit you to program automations and schedules. To illustrate, you may order your entrances to lock or outside lighting to activate at designated moments every day. You could even have multiple actions occur at once when you’re turning in for the night. Or you may program customized “If This, Then That” rules like deactivating front door locks whenever a fire alarm is triggered.
