I have a very old Mobotix T26 system that has failed. It’s a full door entry system with pin pad, camera, door bell etc.
I haven’t been able to find a good replacement and honestly Mobotix has been pretty terrible so I don’t plan to go back to their products.
My main things are that I’d like a good camera (day and night) and pin entry so that I don’t always have to carry around a key. It also allows me to give others a code. I haven’t found a good all-in-one system. My next thought was that I split two use cases:
- Pin entry door system. There are many of these out there such as the Schlage smart lock
- Door bell / camera system.
The two things I’m unclear on:
-
Can these smart locks fit onto any door system? Right now I have a Wink Haus VdS M113345 autoLock AV3 | Winkhaus. Essentially auto lock hooks at the top and bottom and then the bolt in the middle. It’s unclear to me if I can just change the centre handle/lock piece and everything else just continues to work.
-
I want to avoid getting the door bell notification via one app and then having to open the lock app to open the door. E.g. I get a Schlage pin lock and G4 Doorbell Professional PoE Kit - Ubiquiti Store United States. Could those both be registered in Home Assistant so that I have HA sending the ring notification and then I have a custom button on the landing screen that unlocks the door lock?
Anything I’m missing or should look at?
