This already exists -- search online for "smart locks".

It's only a matter of time before smart locks start charging a subscription fee. "Pay to manage your home's entry/exit security."

Without a doubt, smart-lock makers are thinking about and want to figure out how to get consumers to subscribe.

The subscriptions already exists, too.

Search online for "smart lock subscription".

I can add smart locks to my home alarm system. Which is also a subscription, of course.
