      Just bought me a Schlage Smart lock.. They make some of the best and strongest locks out there..

      https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BKZW8CG/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&th=1

      BTW if you are into home automation like me, you really should stick with Apple HomeKit Products Why? Because apple designed the system that the products use. It's all encyprted using your iCloud Keychain and HomeKit uses AppleTV as a relay rather than exposing directly. Seriously you don't want lock makers (looking at you kwikset, they made bad locks anyway though) handling the Network security site of it.

        Assuming of course the lock makers didn't futz the implementation details, or actually issue updates for any unforseen problems in the future.

          Apple verifies them.

            I'll keep my door locks dumb, thanks. No reason to have a network connected deadbolt, especially if it only works with crapple stuff.

              Indeed

              If I decide to automate them (and I likely will) I will do it myself. That's a project I'd have a blast with haha.

                I'm curious to hear your experience with it. How it works, when it unlocks, how the app? works, etc.

                Trying to gather some real world data on living with these things.

                  Where'd that list of compromised home automation locks go? Dagnabit.

                    Anything not made by Schlage is pretty much on that list. Schlage is the only company that's done one that serious about security in the first place. Hence why their locks are damn expensive.

                    kwikset kevo can be opened with a screw driver.. The lock core is weak

                          We have a keypad lock from Schlage.

                          It works great. So much easier for the kids.

                            There was one of those on the AirBNB in Austin last year.. it was night until it didn't work the last day. I had no key I had to call the super.

                              We've had ours for many, many years with nary an issue.

                                You can put time restrictions and such on PINs/users. Maybe they did that.

                                I plan on taking the Cylinders out of mine and finding a blank one without a key hole.

                                  Nope, the super said they had problems before. She had to come use the use to get me in.
