Door/Window sensors to add to existing system listed below

Hardware
1

My current system: Lenovo T520 running HAos, Wyze V3 cams, Konnected 6 Zone alarm panel with one motion sensor and one door sensor hardwired to it. I also have 4 Tuya flood lights and a Lutron RA2 lighting system. I currently have no Zigbee devices. I also have a CU7000 58" Samsung TV that came with SmartThings hub built in which keeps yelling at me about not finding a connected SmartThings dongle connected to it which I guess gives Zigbee capabilities to SmartThings.

I would like to add some more Door/Window sensors to the system. One option is to try and run wires to the two other doors that I have in the house and connect to the Konnected alarm board or perhaps setup some WiFi (BT, Zigbee,etc) door sensors? I did find some Tuya WiFi Sensors on Amazon but with only 3.7 stars not sure if that is a good option.

So I am here to see what experts might recommend for me to add to my system to get those added Door/Windows sensors going into the new year 2024 :partying_face:

For Zwave, the Ring door/window sensors.
For Zigbee, the Aqara door/window sensor.
If either is an option, get the Ring sensors.
If size is an issue, the Aqara.

I take it I will need a USB dongle for either Zwave or Zigbee attached to my HAos laptop with an extension USB cable?

Correct. You will.
