I have the same issue with several Shelly BLU Door/Window sensors. It seams to be an issue with the latest firmware versions for the Shelly BLU Door/Window sensor. Integration of an encrypted device in HomeAssistant worked fine with the original firmware of the deivce (Version "20230522-134711/v1.0.6"). After Ugrading to "20240114-142209/v1.09" or "20240202-140519/???", the integration is no longer possible because the bind key is not accepted. The behaviour is the same if i upgrade a already encrypted device to the latest firmware or if i encyrpt the device after the firmware upgrade.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
