I’ve recently decided to up my security, but I don’t want it to be an annoyance for the family to use. I also have an aversion to web hosted things, so I’d like something that is locally hosted/controlled, without a “Setup app”
I’m open to deadbolt and regular latch smart locks.
What options are out there? what do you use? do you like it?

Pretty much any Z-Wave lock like from Kiwkset, Schlage, Yale, etc. will do what you need provided you have a Z-Wave interface to HA already. No phone home for those devices.
I have the Wyze lock bolt and its pretty amazing.
- No cloud features at all, infact it has no network access. Its completely offline. You can only connect to it via bluetooth to add users etc.
- Can’t be picked because - it has no key hole at all
- Has a keypad to unlock via code, but
- It has a super fast fingerprint reader - just touch and you’re in. Only need the keypad if your fingers are wet and fingerprints fail to scan because of it (almost never)
- Reasonably priced
