Recommendation for an outdoor, front door motion sensor

[jrgolds]

Hi everyone,

I was hoping someone could recommend to me a motion sensor for the following:

When people come to my front door, the light turns on for 15 min. I would link it to a standard zwave switch on the inside of my house that controls the light and would have the rule only work during evening hours.

Any suggestions?

Is your front door under a sheltered canopy / roof?

If yes, lots of people just use indoor motion sensors.

Suggest you choose one with adjustable sensitivity parameters like the Fibaro Motion sensor, as out door environments can trigger a lot of false positives.

Yup, it’s sheltered.
