I need a smart lock that works with Zigbee home automation hubs.

If you are running a Zigbee-based smart home (such as Home Assistant, Hubitat, or Samsung SmartThings), finding a reliable Zigbee smart lock gives you local control without relying on cloud apps.

Top smart locks with native or modular Zigbee support include:

Schlage is renowned for durability. While the Encode series leans Wi-Fi/Thread, the Schlage Connect Go to product viewer dialog for this item. utilizes interchangeable smart modules and offers explicit Zigbee and Z-Wave options for seamless integration into hard-wired home automation hubs.

Yale Assure Lock Series (with Zigbee Module) : Yale offers modular deadbolts and touchscreen locks where you can swap out the network communication card. By purchasing the lock and adding a Yale Zigbee Network Module Go to product viewer dialog for this item. , it integrates directly with your Zigbee hub.

A popular motorized deadbolt featuring Kwikset's re-key technology and a backlit keypad. The explicit Zigbee 3.0 version pairs smoothly with platforms like Home Assistant or SmartThings out of the box. [1][2][3]

To help narrow down the best choice, could you tell me:

• Which specific hub or platform are you using (e.g., Home Assistant, SmartThings, Hubitat)?
• Do you prefer a touchscreen, physical push-buttons, or key-free exterior?

If you specifically want Zigbee, I’d narrow the field considerably. The best straightforward option I found is the Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0.

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $188.99 (The Home Depot)

My picks

• Best overall: Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 — a true Zigbee 3.0 deadbolt, available in several finishes. It can communicate with a compatible Zigbee hub/coordinator rather than requiring Wi-Fi. Current listings are around $170–$190.

• If you use Home Assistant + Zigbee2MQTT: the 914 Zigbee is particularly interesting because Zigbee2MQTT supports locks and Home Assistant can automatically discover Zigbee2MQTT devices.

• If you're starting a Home Assistant Zigbee network: Home Assistant's current recommendation is the Connect ZBT-2 coordinator; ZHA natively supports lock devices.

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $188.99 (The Home Depot)

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 Satin Nickel - $172.90 (The Home Depot)

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 Matte Black - $170.37 (The Home Depot)

Important: make sure you buy the Zigbee version specifically. Smart locks with the same model family can come in Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, or other variants, and those aren't interchangeable.

If you tell me which Zigbee hub you're using (e.g. Home Assistant/ZHA, Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings, Homey, etc.), I can give you 2–3 locks that are confirmed compatible with that exact hub, including the best option for your budget.

If Zigbee is a requirement, I’d narrow it to these:

Best choices

• Yale Assure Lock with Zigbee - $279.99 (Wayfair)

1. Yale Assure Lock + Zigbee module — my top pick

• Direct Zigbee connectivity rather than Wi-Fi.

• Yale specifically lists SmartThings, Xfinity Home, and Amazon Echo Plus as compatible Zigbee systems.

• Keypad access and conventional deadbolt installation.

• Important: make sure the listing includes the HA2 Zigbee 3.0 module. Current Yale documentation confirms that module, but some newer Assure Lock 2 configurations are sold with different communication modules.

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $172.90 (The Home Depot)

2. Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 — good value

• Zigbee 3.0.

• Traditional keypad deadbolt.

• SmartKey mechanical re-keying.

• Currently around $173 for the satin-nickel version shown above.

• Yale Assure Lock Touchscreen with Zigbee - $269.00 (Wayfair)

3. Yale Assure touchscreen + Zigbee

• Same general Yale/Zigbee approach, but with a touchscreen keypad.
• A good option if you prefer a more modern appearance.

One important caveat

The Aqara U50 does support Zigbee 3.0, but Aqara says it requires an Aqara hub. Aqara LLC So I wouldn't choose it if your goal is to pair the lock directly with a generic Zigbee coordinator such as Home Assistant/Zigbee2MQTT.

If you tell me which Zigbee hub you have (Home Assistant/Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings, Amazon Echo, etc.), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 locks that are actually compatible with your hub, including current prices.

Finding a smart lock that natively supports Zigbee gives you a reliable, local mesh network connection that doesn't crowd your Wi-Fi. The best choices on the market feature modular or dedicated Zigbee integration , working seamlessly with platforms like Home Assistant, Hubitat, or SmartThings.

Add to list A highly reliable motorized deadbolt that uses a swappable network module. By ensuring you get the version with the Zigbee module (or buying the module separately), it integrates tightly into local hubs. It features a backlit capacitive touchscreen and a clean aesthetic available in multiple finishes.[1][2]

Add to list A motorized one-touch locking deadbolt featuring a traditional or contemporary keypad layout. It comes with native Zigbee 3.0 support and includes Kwikset's re-keyable SmartKey security feature, making it easy to match to your existing house key if desired.[1]

Add to list If you prefer physical tactile buttons over a touchscreen (which can be easier to press with gloves or in the dark), the push-button variant equipped with a Zigbee network module is a sturdy, dependable workhorse for home automation environments.[1]

To help narrow down the ideal choice, let me know:

• Which specific Zigbee hub or automation platform are you using (e.g., Home Assistant via ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings)?
• Do you prefer a touchscreen, physical push-buttons, or a key-free design?

If Zigbee is a hard requirement, I’d narrow the field considerably. Zigbee smart-lock options are less common now as Matter/Thread has taken over much of the newer market.

My top picks

• Yale Assure Lock with ZigBee - $279.99 (Wayfair)

• Yale Assure Touchscreen Deadbolt with ZigBee - $269.00 (Wayfair)

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $172.90 (The Home Depot)

• Kwikset SmartCode 916 Zigbee Touchscreen - $268.95 (Home Controls)

• Best overall: Yale Assure + Zigbee module. Yale's Assure family supports its HA2 Zigbee 3.0 module, and Yale specifically lists compatibility with Zigbee systems such as SmartThings, Xfinity Home and Amazon Echo Plus.

• Best value: Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee. A conventional keypad deadbolt with Zigbee 3.0, and it's currently around $170–190 in the results I found.

• If you want a touchscreen: the Yale Assure touchscreen Zigbee or Kwikset 916 Zigbee are good choices.

One important caveat: make sure you buy the Zigbee-specific version/module, not merely a lock from the same product family. For example, the current Yale Assure 2 can use different connectivity modules, and the module determines whether you're getting Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, etc.

If you tell me which Zigbee hub you're using (Home Assistant, Hubitat, SmartThings, Alexa/Echo, etc.) and whether your door is a standard US deadbolt, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options that will actually pair with your setup.

When looking for a smart lock that works with a Zigbee home automation hub , your options depend on whether you want a native Zigbee lock or a modular lock that accepts a Zigbee communication module. Because locks require high battery efficiency and reliable local control, native Zigbee options are specialized but integrate exceptionally well with platforms like Home Assistant, Hubitat, or SmartThings.

Top smart locks featuring reliable Zigbee integration include:

Add to list A top-tier biometric deadbolt that uses Zigbee 3.0 (via an Aqara hub for local automation integration and remote features) alongside Bluetooth and Apple Home Key. It supports fingerprint unlock, passcodes, and physical keys. You can view the bundle details or purchase options directly at the Aqara U100 Store.[1]

Add to list Yale uses a clever swappable-module design. While base models ship with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, you can buy or swap in a Zigbee Network Module to integrate the deadbolt directly into a Zigbee-based smart home ecosystem. Check out configurations on the Yale Home Store.

Add to list Kwikset offers dedicated Home Connect deadbolts and conversion kits built explicitly with Zigbee technology to interface seamlessly with security panels and automation hubs like SmartThings or Ezlo. You can browse specifications via the Kwikset Product Catalog.[1][2]

To help narrow down the ideal choice, could you tell me:

• Which specific Zigbee hub are you using (e.g., Home Assistant with ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, or SmartThings)?
• Do you prefer an entry method relying on fingerprints, a keypad, or Apple Home Key?

Yes. If Zigbee is a hard requirement, I’d focus on locks that explicitly have a Zigbee radio—not merely “smart home compatible.”

Best options

• Yale Assure Lock with Zigbee - $279.99 (Wayfair)

1. Yale Assure Lock with Zigbee — my pick

• Dedicated Zigbee connectivity

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $170.37 (The Home Depot)

• Yale Assure Lock Touchscreen with Zigbee - $269.00 (Wayfair)

One important gotcha

Don't accidentally buy a Z-Wave version of a lock. For example, the Kwikset HomeConnect 620 listings I found are Z-Wave, not Zigbee. Likewise, many current Yale Assure Lock 2 models use Bluetooth/Wi-Fi rather than Zigbee.

If you tell me which Zigbee hub you're using (Home Assistant/Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings, etc.) and whether your door is single-cylinder deadbolt, I can narrow this down to the best compatible model and check current prices.

When integrating a smart lock with a Zigbee home automation hub (such as Home Assistant via Zigbee2MQTT/ZHA, Hubitat, or SmartThings), you want a lock that offers native Zigbee support or a reliable Zigbee communication module.

Top options for Zigbee-based smart locks:

• Yale Assure Lock Series (with Zigbee Module): The [Yale Assure Lock SL Touchscreen Deadbolt Go to product viewer dialog for this item. ](https://www.keylessbuild.com/products/yale-assure-lock-sl-with-zigbee/6555907000015471816?srsltid=AfmBOopjxBTQfXmjcPg7nw1JmqjUHA6avAEW2nMBsP6SWsSDc7pOtbr0WHM) is one of the most reliable choices. By swapping out the network module, you can specify Zigbee connectivity to pair directly with hubs like SmartThings, Hubitat, or Home Assistant without needing Yale's proprietary cloud bridge. It's key-free, motorized, and robust.[1]
• Aqara Smart Lock A100 Go to product viewer dialog for this item. (Zigbee): The Aqara Smart Door Lock A100 utilizes Zigbee 3.0 to connect cleanly to Aqara hubs and compatible local orchestration systems. It features biometric fingerprint entry, NFC, and temporary pin generation. (Note: This is typically a mortise-style lock common in international markets or specific door setups). [1]
• ZKTeco AL30-Z Go to product viewer dialog for this item. : A more budget-friendly and accessible option, the ZKTeco AL30-Z Smart Lock features built-in ZigBee communication, PIN code access, and an RFID reader, designed to slot easily into generic Zigbee home automation networks.[1]

To help narrow down the best physical form factor for your door, tell me:

• What hub or software are you running (e.g., Home Assistant, Hubitat, SmartThings)?
• Do you prefer a deadbolt-only retrofit or a full handle/lever set?

Yes. If Zigbee is a hard requirement, I’d narrow the field to a few models rather than buying a generic “smart” lock—many popular locks use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, or Thread instead.

My top Zigbee choices

• Yale Assure Lock with Zigbee - $279.99 (Wayfair)

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 - $188.99 (The Home Depot)

• Yale Assure Lock Touchscreen with Zigbee - $285.47 (Wayfair)

• Kwikset SmartCode 916 Zigbee - $268.95 (Home Controls)

• Yale Assure + Zigbee module — my first choice if you want a well-established lock and broad home-automation compatibility. Yale specifically lists its HA2 Zigbee 3.0 module and compatibility with systems including SmartThings and Amazon Echo devices.

• Kwikset SmartCode 914 Zigbee 3.0 — a good value option, currently around $170–$190 in the results I found. It has a conventional keypad and SmartKey mechanical keyway.

• Yale Assure touchscreen Zigbee — similar Yale platform with a touchscreen instead of physical buttons.

• Kwikset SmartCode 916 Zigbee — touchscreen version of the Kwikset approach.

One important distinction: Schlage Connect is available in Zigbee, but make sure you buy the Zigbee version rather than the visually similar Z-Wave version. Schlage confirms that its Zigbee Connect locks have a blue circuit board, while the Z-Wave versions use green.

What I'd buy

If you tell me which Zigbee hub you're using—for example Home Assistant + Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings, Homey, or an Echo with Zigbee—I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 locks that are actually compatible with your hub, including current prices and whether they support lock/unlock status, PIN management, and automations.

Finding a smart lock that natively supports Zigbee gives you a fast, local, and reliable mesh network connection—bypassing the need for cloud-heavy Wi-Fi setups.

Top smart locks featuring native Zigbee support or modular Zigbee interchangeability include:

• Yale Assure Lock 2 / Assure Lock Series (with Zigbee Module) : Yale is one of the gold standards for Zigbee integration. By purchasing an Assure Lock (like the Yale Assure Lock Touchscreen Deadbolt YRD226 Go to product viewer dialog for this item. or the sleek key-free Yale Assure Lock SL Go to product viewer dialog for this item. ) and swapping in the plug-in Zigbee network module, it pairs seamlessly with platforms like Home Assistant, Hubitat, and Samsung SmartThings.

While some Aqara locks use a proprietary Zigbee profile or require their own Aqara hub to bridge into Apple Home/Matter/Zigbee setups, they offer phenomenal biometric and passcode response times native to the Zigbee family.

To help narrow down the best fit, tell me:

• What specific Zigbee hub or platform are you using (e.g., Home Assistant with ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT, Hubitat, SmartThings)?
• Do you prefer a keypad with a physical key override or a 100% key-free touchscreen?
