[Colorado-Talk] Disarming an alarm when entering a building

[Zachary N. Griego-Dreicer]

Most have apps for smartphones. If your manager allows it, maybe s/he could give you access to the app where you could disarm it just before you walk inside the door and arm it just after you leave. We had this at one of our houses and it worked pretty well. It was through ADT. Hth.
