Front Door Lock behavior

We have a Schlage keypad deadbolt lock integrated with our Ring alarm and new to how things are supposed to work. We don’t have a sensor on the front door so if we set the alarm system to “Home” but forget to turn the lock on the deadbolt to lock it and then open our front door does anything happen? What should happen? Should we add a sensor to that door?

Thanks.

Nothing will happen. The lock will just arm/disarm the alarm - it’s not a sensor.

You need a sensor on your front door if you want the door to alarm if opened.
