# HMCharacteristicTypeCurrentPosition

The current position of a door, window, awning, or window covering.

```
let HMCharacteristicTypeCurrentPosition: String
```

## Discussion

The corresponding value is an integer percentage. A value of `0` indicates a door or window is fully closed, or that awnings or shades permit the least possible light. A value of `100` indicates the opposite.
