Add an Access Control locking or unlocking schedule

Access Control locking and unlocking schedules can be added using the Alarm.com customer website.

Creating a schedule will not cause locks to change their status immediately. All scheduled actions will occur at the next scheduled time.

Example: An unlocking schedule is created at 11:00 AM to have all locks unlock at 7:00 AM and lock at 6:30 PM. Since the schedule was created after the unlock time, the schedule will wait until the following day at 7:00 AM to unlock.

To add an Access Control locking or unlocking schedule:

  1. Log into the Alarm.com customer website.
  2. Click Automation.
  3. Click Schedules.
  4. Click Add New Schedule.

    • Use business hours to use the Business Hours schedule that is already created and enabled on the account.
