I have Schlage deadbolt lock and Ring doorbell and alarm system installed in the front door of my house. Although they are connected with each other but locking or unlocking the Schlage lock does not arm or disarm my alarm system. I am trying to figure that out. Now i am looking for a smart lock for my garage door. Currently it has a simple Schalge lock (not smart and not deadbolt). The key works with the Schlage smart lock in the front. Should i go ahead with the Schalge lock again? The only pro being i get to use the same key for the deadbolt. Its much costly and the integration with Ring alarm is not 100%. Or do I get a entirely different smart lock which would be cost effective but fully integrated with Ring? Tbh, Ultimately i plan to use Home Assistant primarily. Any help??
i think getting a different smart lock fully integrated with Ring would be cost effective, especially if you’re planning to use Home Assistant primarily. having a different physical key for the garage door might not be a big issue if you rarely use it with a smart lock.
