I have the Assure Lock 2. I can tell you that it is by far the worst z-wave device on my network. It constantly reports the wrong state, so I can’t trust it. Defeats the whole purpose of having it. I also have one connected to their stand alone module plug and it reports the correct state but will sometimes drop the connection.

I’m using them with Home Assistant btw. The state reports correctly in their own app, but I have to be within 5 feet for that to work because it relies on Bluetooth.

I honestly don’t think there is a great smart lock on the market right now. Because I want z-wave I would try the Schlage lock - I’ve heard it’s great but I don’t love the design and I want keyless.

This is running to your doorbell? Get a PoE doorbell like Reolink or Unifi and don’t do this dangerous wiring.
