Some creative sensor uses might be:
Gun Safe – Mount a sensor on your gun cabinet. That way, when somebody opens the cabinet, you will get a notification signal.
Liquor and Medicine Cabinets- Vivint sensors can also help you keep an eye on the contents of your liquor and medicine cabinets. Schedules can even be set in your Vivint Security APP to alert you if a cabinet door has not been opened by a certain time.
Hazardous Materials- A Vivint Alarm System can even help prevent accidental poisonings. Mount a sensor on any cupboards that a little one can reach that might contain harmful or toxic materials.
Tool Shed- A sensor can be mounted on the tool shed door, as long as it is close enough to transmit a signal to the hub of your Vivint alarm system. As your installer about special outdoor sensors to deal with extreme temperatures and the elements
Mailbox- Wouldn’t it be nice to know when the mail gets delivered? Contacts can be placed on the mailbox that can notify you.
Pool Gate - Families with young children are often concerned if they have a swimming pool. It is a good idea to mount an outdoor sensor on the gate that will let you know when someone accesses the pool area.
