You need to pick a wireless protocol and then add a USB stick to Homebridge. Pick between ZigBee and Z-wave. I went with Ring 2nd Gen Z-wave contact sensors for all my doors and windows. They update very fast and fairly inexpensive (6-pack is $99 USD), zero complaints.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
