Custom Component: Lock Code Manager - an integration to manage lock usercodes (Z-Wave only, for now!)

DarthNorse · July 17, 2024, 1:31am

I have the same issue as well.

The locks are definitely connected as I can control them via HA.

Apologies all, there is a bug that is rendering the integration unusable. I’m a newly minted father and I have had less time than I expected to work on this but I hope to come back to it soon.

I just tried to add this repo to my HAOS box and it throw an error that the repo wasn’t valid.

Nickolaos · October 1, 2024, 8:54pm

The issue is, that this is not an Home Assistant Add-on.
This is a HACS Integration.

Open HACS
++ Search for “Lock Code Manager”
++ Select the Integration
++ On the bottom right press the Download button
++ On the pop-up download the latest version.
++ Restart Home Assistant

And now it will be available.

Trying to attach the config to a dashboard or view, i’m getting general errors stating “Timeout waiting for strategy element ll-strategy-dashboard-lock-code-manager to be registered”

Ultimately facing the same issue mentioned above, any idea if/when this might get resolved so I can give this seemingly awesome integration a run?

@raman325 I saw updates to the repository. Is there an ETA on being back up and running? Thanks

raman325 · October 12, 2025, 10:11pm

is it completely broken at the moment?

Wraey · October 15, 2025, 5:59pm

Hi @raman325 I’m trying to install and it’s definitely not working at all right now. Here’s some warnings, and an error, from my logs.

raman325 · October 15, 2025, 8:24pm

thanks, can you open a github issue in the repo?

I’ve been playing with Claude and I’m trying to let Claude figure these bugs out. The pushes you saw were actually commits from Claude. I did some basic reviews but need to go through the PRs more in depth before committing the changes. I would like to get this integration back into a working state, and I’d love as a next step to add support for additional locks (zigbee, matter, direct integration, etc) although would probably need some help to do that correctly. If anyone is interested in helping out with that, DM me on Discord

rgerrans · October 18, 2025, 4:02pm

Here’s the issue I’m seeing when I tried to create a new dashboard

Configuration error
Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘startsWith’)

Will add to GitHub aswell

Wraey · October 21, 2025, 8:11pm

@raman325 I’ve added it. Any idea on an eta? Can’t get it installed / running at all right now.

tryingtoohard · November 6, 2025, 5:56pm

Hi there, I’m a past user of LCM and really liked it but unfortunately it broke last year (v0.5.1) and I uninstalled it.

However, I see that v0.5.2-b3 is on the repository so I reinstalled it. It installs well (which, from memory, is better than where I was at with v0.5.1). The slots are all unavailable and other fields greyed out.

If you need anyone to do some testing, let me know as I have some time at the moment to get into it.

raman325 · November 6, 2025, 10:20pm

Good news is I am actively working on it and hope to get it to the state I wanted it to be in before I dropped it. Bad news is what was just shared. Which entities are unavailable exactly? Can you set log level for the integration to debug, reload the integration, and share the logs? If you don’t want to do that here, same username on discord. Alternatively same username @gmail.com via email

tryingtoohard · November 7, 2025, 2:14pm

Sorry to be dim - I’ve enabled the debug logging but where do I find the LCM logs themselves?

tryingtoohard · November 7, 2025, 3:17pm

OK, found something in the main Core logs - is this what you need?

raman325 · November 19, 2025, 8:00am

to set debug logs, you have a couple of options, but the easiest way to do it is as follows:

Go to Settings > Devices and services
Find the LCM card and click on it (the top half of the card)
In the top right of the screen, there is a … menu where you can enable debug logging for the integration
Reload the integration. You can do that in the … menu in the middle of the screen for your particular config entry
Post the results, when you are done disable debug logging

I am about to push another pre-release that may help with the startup issues. Basically the integration tries to do too much all at once and overloads the Z-Wave network (that’s what I think is happening anyway). This newest release makes things more efficient, adds some delays between updates, etc. Coming out shortly

tmman · December 1, 2025, 1:24am

I just installed this via HACS and am getting the following issue when trying to load the lock codes via the UI:

Error loading the view strategy:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading ‘replace’)

Has anyone dealt with this? My YAML is as follows:

  - title: House Locks
    path: house-locks
    icon: mdi:lock
    badges: []
    strategy:
      type: custom:lock-code-manager
      config_entry_title: House Locks
      include_code_slot_sensors: true
      include:
        - lock.back_door_lock

rgerrans · December 6, 2025, 8:32pm

They current stable version has issues. The developer has a pre release beta he’s working on to fix. The latest still isn’t working for me yet. On my todo is to pull error logs to share with the developer

tybo611 · December 13, 2025, 1:11pm

I had this issue, FWIW, I was able to fix it by changing the total number of states to match the total expected on each device(30 in case of my lock)
