| Z-Wave | Works Local | Local, accepts key, works on dead battery; loud motorSaved copyHere are a bunch from Schlage. https://www.schlage.com/en/home/smart-locks.html I had similar requirements: 1. Must work locally 2. Must also accept a key 3. Must work if there is a power failure or dead battery. 4. Use zigbee or z-wave, not wifi. I went with Schlage ConnectTM Smart Deadbolt. My only complaint is that it's loud when it locks and unlocks via a remote trigger. Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2023-12 | |
| Z-Wave | Works Local | Good locks once set up with ZStick 7Saved copy… these, and they are good locks once you get it going, you'll like it as well. Here's my setup. 1) Aeotec ZStick 7 , Sonoff ZBDongle - E, caseta hub pro 2) zwave-js-ui running in a docker container, with the ZStick device passed through. 3) HA running in a VM. The HA Zwave integration will allow you to \*not\* use the built in implementation and connect to the external zwave-js-ui docker container. 4) Install HACS, keymaster and battery notes on HA. ( though I think I read that the new lock cards do pretty well) 5) Enjoy all the cool things you can do with your lock. I have a large mix of … Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2024-05 | |
| Z-Wave | Works Local | Flawless integration for years; several users agreeSaved copySchlage connect zwave. The integration is flawless and key master is just icing on the cake. The other things I love about it is the look. You can get it in different styles and finishes to match your handle and/or door. And the security features are top notch from the deadbolt security plate to the tamper alarm. Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2024-09 | |

| Vera | Partly works Local | Partly in Home Lock state goes busy after Siri or Home command | Z-Wave via Vera Plus; node report busy after commandSaved copy… (Hass.io/Docker/Windows/etc.): Component/platform: Description of problem: I have homekit integration on my hass as well as the vera component. I recently installed a schlage connect deadbolt which I paired with my z-wave controller (vera plus). This setup allowed me to see the status of my deadbolt from vera, from hass, and also from homekit. My problem is that when I initiate a command through siri or through homekit, it appears that the the state for the lock goes from unlock to lock and then back to unlock even though I only asked for it to unlock the deabolt. This also leads to siri … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #17367 · 2018-10 |
| Not named | Partly works | Works in Home Works via virtual switch plus HomeKit automations | Only HomeKit; faked with virtual switch and HomeKit automationsSaved copyMy house had a Schlage Connect when I moved in, which only works with HomeKit (unless I buy a separate controller). I was able to fake it with a virtual switch and some HomeKit automations that lock/unlock the door based on the state of the virtual switch.

| Z-Wave | Not working | All eight stopped working under SmartThings; user considering switching to HASaved copy… SmartThings for five years now and went full-on with it when I built my new home 2.5 years ago. Today we have almost two hundred smart home devices, but my Schlage Connect Z-Wave locks have all at the same time (all eight of them) stopped working. They are the most important smart home devices in my home. We are in a large footprint ranch with doors all over the 3400+ square feet. Walking around to check the locks at night sure gets my steps in! 🤦♂️ So, I've done all the normal troubleshooting steps to get them working and am not here to rehash that. I'm in trouble. I've been thinking a … Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit thread · 2023-12 |
