Schlage Connect Touchscreen DeadboltWorksZ-Wave locks via Wink hub into Homebridge recommended; poster bought used Wink 1 hub

… Lutron for my switches and never had a Z-Wave hub, but I discovered that the locks installed by my home builder are z-wave compatible. They're this lock: Schlage Connect Touchscreen Deadbolt with alarm with Century trim I'd like to get these connected with my other devices, for things like checking lock status in the Home app and triggering automation when the door is unlocked. Clearly I'd need a z-wave hub of some kind but I wasn't sure if there were pros or cons to different hubs with regards to Homebridge/HomeKit. *Update:* I ended up buying a used Wink hub (version 1) for just $17 on …

Wink 3 devicesWorksWink Hub 2 with wink3 plugin great so far; Wink Relay liked
Saved copy
I've got a Wink Hub 2 up and running as the hub for everything and now using Homebridge to with the wink3 plugin. It has been great so far. One advantage is the Wink Relay's which I really like. They had a cyber Monday deal and I picked up a couple more of them for about $23 each. In my house these provide an intercom system as well as smart lighting controls for the areas they've been installed.

August Smart LockPartly worksWink plugin exposed lock but not DoorSense; another user found it unreliable
Saved copy
I do the same thing with great results. Both the lock and the DoorSense sensor is exposed to HomeKit via Smartthings. Before switching to Smartthings, I utilized the Wink Homebridge plugin to expose this lock in HomeKit. This integration does not expose the DoorSense sensor, but worked otherwise identically.

August Smart Lock via Wink hubPartly worksLock can be bridged via Wink hub and August Connect; DoorSense missing
Saved copy
I do not believe there is a plugin for it. The only way I can remotely see this working, save for August adding Homekit support (IIRC it won't happen due to some August/Apple spat), is having a Wink Hub, connecting your lock to it via the August Connect, and then using the Wink3 plugin. It's an expensive gamble for a small chance of it working though... Lack of Homebridge and/or Homekit support is the reason I went with a Schlage Sense lock several years ago...
