Z-WaveWorks LocalSwappable wireless card lets you upgrade protocol without replacing lock
Saved copy
I have Kwikset locks. I like they have classic designs that fit my 100yo home. In addition all non-Kevo, Kwikset code locks have the same setup and ability to add a swappable wireless card. You can purchase a dumb code lock, then upgrade the card to a new protocol without replacing the lock. Z-wave to z-wave plus or over to HomeKit all with the same physical lock.

Z-WaveWorks LocalAmazing after switching to HA with Zooz adapter

People dunk on them a lot, but I have two Kwikset locks with zwave and once I switched to HA and zwave-js, they’ve been amazing. I had mixed results with hubitat, but the Zooz adapter has been fantastic.

In use Kwikset Z-Wave locks and have for over a decade. They are outstanding. Battery life is great, range is amazing, keeps the 2.4ghz traffic low, and they are difficult to hack.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

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.
