Schlage EncodeWorksBuilt-in WiFi and integrates directly with HA without hub
Saved copy
… with Yale is infuriating - you'd think basic app functionality would be table stakes by now. For hub-free options that work well with HA, I'd look at Schlage Encode or the newer Encode Plus if you want Apple Home Key support. Both have built-in WiFi and integrate directly with HA without needing a separate hub. The Encode Plus also supports Matter which should give you better future compatibility. Kwikset Halo series is another solid option - the WiFi versions connect directly and work well with HA. Their SmartCode series has z-wave models that pair directly with HA's z-wave integration if …

Schlage Encode BE489WBWorks CloudWiFi lock, easy to add, battery lasts 5-6 months
Saved copy
I can recommend the Schlage Encode BE489WB - Works over wifi though. The battery lasts a long time. I'd say maybe 5-6 months with normal use. Rechargable batteries go long way here. Easy to set up, easy to add to home assistant, easy to use schlage app if you need to resort to that in one-off situations. I had an issue with the initial one i purchased after a couple years; it randomly stop responding to the saved code even after a full factory reset and customer service sent over a replacement for free.

Schlage Encode lockWorksReliable with HA integration; auto-lock automations; battery hungry on 4 AAs
Saved copy
I use a Schlage Encode series, mostly because of aesthetics. But to be fair, it's been very reliable (albeit maybe a bit of a battery hog, but it's just 4xAAs, so easy to swap out or switch to rechargeables). It has an integration for HA, so I can set automations easily. For example, it defaults to auto-lock after 5 mins, but when the cleaners are over they're in and out of the door pretty regularly for those couple of hours. In HA, I have a "cleaning mode" button that turns on all the lights to full blast and disables the auto-lock on the Schlage...then I turn off "cleaning mode" and it set …

The problem I am unable to add the Schlage Integration. I have the Schlage Encode Smart WiFi Lever. I installed and created an account in the Schlage App and all works well there. I logged out and back in on Schlage App with email and password without any problem, but when adding the Schlage Integration, I get: My log shows the following errors: Logger: aiohttp.server Source: /usr/local/lib/python3.13/site-packages/aiohttp/web_protocol.py:451 First occurred: 2:29:29 PM (5 occurrences) Last logged: 2:56:47 PM Error handling request from 69.123.113.217 Traceback (most recent call last): File …
