Quick verdict
Kwikset's SmartCode Zigbee deadbolt is a classic local-first smart lock: a keypad deadbolt that joins your Zigbee network and is controlled entirely through zigbee2mqtt or ZHA in Home Assistant, with no cloud account. Code management can vary by model and firmware, but for cloud-free keypad entry it is a dependable choice.
Standout: Keypad deadbolt with fully local Zigbee control through zigbee2mqtt or ZHA, no cloud account.
