In some implementations, the commercial facility 136 may be equipped with a sensor on the exterior of the front door 120b. Specifically, the sensor may allow user 124a to scan a badge or a QR code to gain access into the commercial facility 136. The control unit server 104b may receive scanned badge data or the QR code from the one or more sensors 114b. In response, the control unit server 104b then communicates the scanned badge data or the QR code to the monitoring server 134. The monitoring server 134 may compare the scanned badge data or QR code against a list of one or more codes associated with users allowed access to the commercial facility 136 and authenticate entry via front door 120b once there is a match. In addition, the monitoring server 134 logs an entry of a user along with the date and time once the monitoring server 134 determines a match.
For example, the monitoring server 134 may log an entry associated with the user 124a arming the residential facility 102 and shutting the garage door 127 every weekday at 8:30 AM, denoting the user 124a's departure. Twenty-five minutes later at 8:55 AM, the monitoring server 134 receives a notice that user 124a badges in at the commercial facility 136 to gain entry into door 120b. The monitoring server 134 may recognize a pattern based on similar activity of the user 124a between the residential facility 102 and the commercial facility 136. As a result, the monitoring server 134 logs an entry in memory that the user 124a travels from the residential facility 102 to the commercial facility 136 every Monday through Friday and the travel time is 25-30 minutes.
