fingerprint door lock with no Bluetooth, wifi or proprietary app?
Might be a tall order these days but I’m looking for a smart door lock with the following criteria:
Auto locking
No Bluetooth or wifi
Not tied to a proprietary app (open source is fine)
Preferably programmable from the inside of the door or by a connection with a physical cable to a phone or laptop
Preferably inexpensive (less than $200 per lock but not a deal breaker if more)
I realize locks are more of a deterrent than anything. But still I want it as secure as I can make it. I already have a comprehensive camera system and I don’t want the door locks integrated into the wider system unless someone can give me a good reason. I already have tamper and open alarms on the doors. People around the house tend to forget keys and lock doors behind them.
Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated. I’m just beginning my home security journey
