Z-Wave Deadbolt Options
Hi all!
I searched to see if a thread was already created for this discussion but I didn't see one. Does anyone have any recommendations for a Home Assistant local only (preferably zwave or ZigBee) deadbolt? In the past I've had a Schlage unit that worked great, when it worked. It often had problems, battery life wasn't great, was on security 0, and wasn't water tight enough for my application as water damage finally killed this one. They're also a bit on the pricier side at >$200. Any other brands or technologies you would recommend?

It’s not necessarily any cheaper unless you get it on sale, but I’ve been a big fan of my August smart lock. I don’t have anything bad to say about it other than the built in auto-unlock could be a bit quicker (but then it’d likely drain phone batteries more, constantly polling for location.) and letting Home Assistant handle the automation solved that.
Do they still offer a model without their app requirements?
