You’ll find numerous possibilities when using geofencing with your home security. Before installing your system, find out exactly what you are able to set up. There is a an undeniable security benefit as you can program your system to automatically lock your doors, engage your alarm, and even shut your garage door when you exit. Conversely, when you return for the day, you can take advantage of geofencing to open your garage, unlock your front door, or illuminate lights.

- Smart thermostats
