Ring Alarm Z Wave Smart Lock Integration - Ring 2019 Upcoming Updates
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лип 2024
- Ring recently announced that they now have integration with Z wave smart locks from different major manufacturers like Yale, Schlage and Kwikset. I'll link below the compatibility page where Ring will continue to update when more models and other brands that have smart z wave technology will be compatible. Please note that you need to have the Ring Alarm at this time to be able to control your z wave compatible locks.
So, for now, you will need the Ring alarm, specifically the base station which is the one responsible and acts as a hub to control the locks and also the alarm sensors using z wave technology. Also, for now, accessing the door lock in the app is a bit of a hassle because it is buried deep in the app...which I'll show you later on.

I bought the Yale Z-Wave smart lock on Ring's site ($220), but saw this video pointing out Ring's Z-Wave compatibility page. I ended up purchasing a lower cost Yale Z-Wave model as a result. Thank you - you saved me over $100 with this video.
I have the hardwired p.o.e.Ring Elite ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ recently installed the Ring Spotlight above the driveway after your review. Another ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ring product. Looking forward to future Ring products and ideas. You are my only neighbor / friend for tech help.Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
You are welcome :)
LH is the bomb. Always churning out the latest. Excellent once again 👍👍💯
Thank You. I appreciate it.
So many great new features coming from Ring. Thanks for covering these!
I know..more updates coming in 2019. You are welcome.
@@LifeHackster now is this your real security system or are you just doing reviews on them also what kind of cameras Re those that you have running outside of your home and are they all wired? And do you have cameras running inside your home as well
Thanks for the video. I was planning on switching my smart locks to the ring alarm system and this help alot.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Thanks for the info. Your videos are always helpful. I appreciate it!!
Thank You.
Awesome I was hoping this was coming!
Thank You. It needs to be updated more though to be user friendly.
I found an open box Kwikset 914zwave for $89 on ebay and it's working great. Agreed that control through the Ring app is a PITA. Looking forward to the updates to come.
Ring will definitely need to update the user interface of the door locks...it is just a hassle right now to lock and unlock from the app.
@@LifeHackster Alexa voice support is here for zwave locks connected via Ring Alarm. support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020637752-Control-Your-Alarm-Integrated-Smart-Locks-with-Alexa
Another great review. Unfortunately I won't be using this feature until someone comes out with a smart lock that covers the turn knob lock and the deadbolt lock. I agree with 24/7 recording using too much bandwidth but if it's used on 1 or 2 critical coverage camera's, it could be worth it.
A lot of what I've seen are only deadbolts. It would be nice if there is one that can do both. Also, for it to know if the door is actually closed or open instead of just locked and unlocked. It can be locked but the door is actually open. As to 24/7 recording, you be better off with an NVR system or a PoE system that records in your home network and doesn't rely on the internet.
Always trust your knowledge and reviews ty!
Thanks for this! Your videos are so informative. I went all in on the ring alarm system with cameras as well in large part because of your videos. I think the ring system overall is pretty good and by far the most Bang for buck in terms of the monthly subscription costs which is huge over the long run. I’m so glad that they are developing the z-wave integration more so that you can truly be a hub. I was betting on them doing this as I add more devices over time to make my home smarter. Finally glad that locks are integrated, even if it’s clunky right now.
Thank You. I like that Ring has major updates coming pretty soon.
Lifehackster, I have a specific scenario in mind for the ring alarm with 2zwave locks. With the ring alarm, can I set up the alarm to unlock one specific door when the system is disarmed by a specific user? I want zwave locks on my front door and garage entry door, but I want the ring alarm to automatically unlock the garage entry door when I disarm the alarm, but not family, friends, or guests. Is that granularity of control available with ring alarm’s zwave lock integration?
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Typing this June 2021; ring still hasn't put the icon on the main dashboard. I bought the Yale YRD256-ZW2-619 Yale assurance Lock SL with Z-wave and it was a pain to integrate it with the ring app. This video helped some but since the app & hardware has changed some, you are left figuring it out on your own. Thanks for the video; the only one here close to the product I bought from Amazon.
I bought the same lock YRD 256 ZW2 619 but I can’t connect to ring
Try to ADD BUT always said device is not found.( enter the master code follow by #-7#-1-# )
Yes! Cheaper option. THANK YOU!
I've had Ring ever since it started and grew right along with it. I've recently discovered the more Ring devices you have integrated in your alarm system, cams, motion/door/window sensors, the more bandwidth you use. So, if your internet is performing slower than usual, do keep that in mind while streaming. I turn off the unnecessary devices during movie nights.
Also, there are differences between the smart locks and what they work with and it is confusing. I bought the Connect deadbolt and I had to buy another device in order for it to work with Ring, pain in the butt and costly. Regretting all purchases at this point.
One more thing, if your electricity goes out, you have to reconnect every time, another pain in the butt cuz we have PG&E and they seem to cut us off whenever the wind blows!
Man, times changed since last time I messed up with z wave on Honeywell tuxedo 5 years ago running between panel and device. I need to see if older z waves can migrate to ring, and more importantly the expensive job of the main water valve z wave
I’m not sure if it will. I know the alarm sensors, you can only use Rings at this time.
Are you limited to a four digit code? Also, how many codes can the lock support. As I recall, most of these locks are limited to 20 or less.
Being that Ring doesn't offer a glass breakage detector will another brand z-wave glass breakage detector work with the Ring Security System?
For those who purchased the yale YRD226 there is no learn button, when syncing with the ring app, add device and follow instruction but use the gear icon instead of “#” which the app says. Got me confused looking for the learn button and the #.
Very informative video thank u!! Can’t wait for my ring + Yale lock to come in😆😆
Do u have a updated video about this z wave yale I was thinking about one I have the nest x but really like the ring
any idea if you can use existing door sensors with the ring alarm system? sense its z wave sensors?
Do they make smart locks for side gates? What distance is Max for connectivity?
Helpful, thanks.
Hi, I have a Ring Doorbell 2 and would like to add a smart lock. Can I do that without Ring Alarm?
Hey do you know if Yale doorman v2 work with ring alarm?
With RING, can I set my Yale lock to automatically lock after 30 seconds?
Great info!
Thanks.
Does your door lock disarm the alarm when you enter? (I'm Switching from a ge z wave setup that's 40 a month.) If you covered it in the video I missed it. Thanks for continuing to make cool update videos.
Not yet but Ring is working on an update.
This likely can be automated, like get scenes, if this do that, through Alexa maybe
Do you have any experience with Alfred Z-Wave integration with the Ring System? Is there any real benefit to buying a Z-Wave lock at all at this time if they are burying the lock controls deep within the Ring App? The only benefit I can see is being able to simply lock the door on the keypad when you leave and have the door lock and the Alarm system arm with one step but I don't think this is possible yet is it? This video is 3 years old and still no real integration with the Ring Alarm and Locks? If not I ill choose the Wi-Fi version for less $ since both can be integrted ith Alexa/Google anyway and the lock companies' app is most likely simpler to get to. Thanks for the great videos
Sorry if I missed it. But will ring alarm integrate with skate Schlage connect smart locks?
Ring integrates with z wave Schlage locks. Here are the compatible models -> support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017691131
Is it possible to clear the Owner passcode so everyone who enters must either use the app or a physical key to open the lock?
Anyway to set an 8 digit alarm code? Don’t see it in the app. Hope they add that.
I think only 4 at this time.
I would be interested in the AI option update for the Ring battery powered spotlight camera and eagerly await your review. Would you recommend the Ring battery powered spotlight camera? Thinking about purchasing a few to monitor the backyard. Keep up the great work.
I'm not sure yet with the Ring battery spotlights. I have no issues with lag and choppiness now but it seems like the cool off period is not what I wanted it to be. I need to test it some more...
@@LifeHackster Looking forward to your results. Thank you
How long the batter last. What happens if the battery is dead. Can we open the door with a manual override
You can use a 9 volt battery which you can connect at the bottom (terminals) and the keypad will turn on for you to input the code.
Please please do the ADT SmartThings kit. No one has any videos on that
I do have smartthings that I'll be checking and testing out. I might in my future videos.
LifeHackster your the man, I love your content.
Whereas if one has a window/door sensor installed with their Ring security system and one of this sensors were to be tripped (while armed), Ring notifies you of the alarm and which sensor created the alarm. However, if one integrated a deadbolt, z-wave lock into their Ring security, armed the system and the deadbolt lock was breached, Ring would not send an alarm; it would only advise that the deadbolt was opened. Not a secure system. Has Ring fixed this issue?
Can you please help me out? I have the 256 touch screen dead bolt and it keeps stating that it is unable to find my device when trying to connect it to my ring account.
My Yale door lock is exactly the same as that but I had it when I had AT&T as my alarm. I tried to follow this video but my app cannot detect my lock when I tried to add it to my Ring account. Any advice? Please?
It would be nice if you can setup users limited to certain times and day of the week only. Like cleaning lady, etc.
That’s a good idea..
Lots of interesting updates coming for ring. How did you get this email??
It was sent to me and I guess not all of their users were emailed if you haven't received it.
Is there a way to control an in wall light switch (example: Leviton DD0SR-1Z) thru the ring alarm base when a Ring floodlight camera detects motion? I want to slave my patio lights when camera detects motion
At this time, there is no integration between the alarm and Ring's cameras aside from sharing the same app. I am pretty sure an update is coming in the near future for full integration.
@@LifeHackster I was able to turn an Indoor Fan light (using Broadlink RF) when the Floodlight camera detected motion, I used Alexa Echo Routine. I wonder if I can do the same if I install an in wall switch Z-wave supported (thru Ring Alarm base). If Alexa can see the in wall switch then I will say it's possible. I'll keep you posted with results.
Hey. Have this been updated already, where you can access the smart lock features in the interface without going that deep in the app? I'm waiting on that to move over my whole system to ring. Please, make an updated video for this (haven't found one in your channel). Thanks!
As far as I know. Not yet but ring has this in the works.
Ok. Well. Thank you for the response. I’ll be following up on it. If it get’s released, please, make a review on it. Thanks.
Any word if the August pro lock will work w this Ring update?
I am not sure. If the August uses z wave, then it can be in the future.
I would like to see that when a code is used on the doors that it also disables the alarm
It will be on their upcoming future updates as per Ring.
Did they have a timeline?
Right, a timeline is very important
Any update?
Can anyone confirm if unlocking is now disabling the alarm?
Just a suggestion. For your videos just use a generic code (1234) for demonstration purposes. It is pretty easy to tell the lock code in the video is 2817 or 3 other possibilities from your hand positioning.
Thanks for the suggestion but don’t worry..I change codes after the video.. and the numbers you said are not even the numbers..
Will unlocking the lock disarm the Ring alarm? Also, locking the lock arm the system?
Yes, you can.
How long does the key pad last if not plugged in to ac power
Since i uploaded this review, I haven't charged my keypad yet. It still has some battery left. It just started saying the battery is low about a week ago.
I recently switched from AT&T Digital Life to the Ring Security System. Can you reset the Yale lock to be compatible with Ring?
This is exactly what I need to know as well, have you found out if possible??? Thanks!
Do you recommend any other smart locks, as I don't have the Ring Alarm?
The Nest X Yale lock is pretty good..just on the expensive side and no integration with their Hello doorbell. -> ua-cam.com/video/fDUwkmNZc_M/v-deo.html
@@LifeHackster I have the Ring Doorbell Pro and Floodlight... Thanks for the feedback.
There's integration with the Nest x Yale lock and Nest Secure
Great video I don’t know if you know this but Amazon now owns all of Ring . I found this our because I am having to replace my Lowe’s iris’s home Alarm Iris will be closing March 31-2019 . I have been reading about a new door lock to add to my Ring alarm system I called ring to ask about the kwikset 916 zwave I was told it will work on the Ring system and that when unlocking the dead bolt it will turn off your ring home Alarm and you will be able to use Alex to lock and unlock with a pin to (unlock only) it’s starting to make sense now that Amazon own Ring that it will Be Alexa friendly . But from what I am understand you will have to have a echo that has a hub like the echo show or you can get the 3 gen echo spot see when i order my ring home Alarm system Amazon gave me the echo for free but I did some more research and found out that the Ring door bell 2 has a hub in it . I went back a week later to order one more door sensors . The new Ring home Alarm set up now adds the 2nd gen ring door bell. The 3 gen echo is on back order I have had the Alarm for 3 weeks now and the echo will not be here till March 5 2019 . So after watching you video it all came together for me . I wanted to add the lock maker do they have a app that will allow you to unlock the door when you get close to the door like some of the others .
Thanks for the info. Ring has been updating their alarm and integrating more zwave devices on it. I'll be doing some follow up video eventually to cover all those updates. Yes, Ring was bought out by Amazon last year.
I’m interested in a door lock that is compatible with my Ring Alarm and Homekit . Is that even possible ? Does it exist ?
Probably not at this time.
Are you able to program it to disarm the Ring alarm whenever you unlock the Yale lock?
That would cause for loss of layer of security.
Wow nice
Still no word from Ring regarding integration of the Floodlights with the alarm system?
I haven't hear anything but Ring is mostly quiet when they release updates.
How is it not intergraded? What features do you miss out on?
Quick question. Is Ring compatible with the Nest Yale X lock?
No it is not.
@@LifeHackster damn it. Ok
Tried your instructions for Schlage, for some reason it doesn't pair-up. Any suggestions?
Has the device been paired to a Z-Wave controller previously? If so, make sure it is has been removed and excluded.
Has ring, updated the app to have an unlock button on the live call screen yet?
Not yet.
@@LifeHackster Thanks for the reply. Do you know of any future plans for it? Great content by the way. I was talking to one of the customer service agents at ring and he("unofficially") recommended your video.
For me the most important integration would be auto-locking when Ring knows the door has been closed for X seconds (via contact sensor).
Yes, that would be a good option.
All of these locks have auto lock built in
Can you try more z wave devices. Another UA-camr tried the ge door sensor but said it wouldn’t trigger the alarm, only trigger the chime. I hope that’s not really the case.
As to the alarm sensors, The Ring alarm will only work reliably with their sensors at this time. They might open it up and integrate with other zwave devices in the future like on what they did on the locks.
They updated the RING App I can unlock my front door from the Dashboard on the ring app. Love the Lock it’s Amazing!!!!!!
Will the alarm be disarmed when the door lock is unlocked, or does the person still have to go to the keypad to disarm the alarm?
I don't have the locks when I go on alarms on the app.
You have to set it up through the alarm - >security devices -> Locks. To access it, go to devices, -> Alarm base station -> locks. I found it easy to access the locks if you have Amazon Alexa.
Will there be an option to disarm the ring alarm when the door is unlocked?
Yes, in their future updates.
However will this only disarm when you unlock the door via its keypad? Because if it disarms when you unlock the door with a key lock pickers would have it easy
I have the Schlage Connect Z-Wave Deadbolt with built-in alarm model BE469 that is listed as compatible on Ring.com, but they're saying I have to have the alarm to make it talk to my Ring Doorbell Pro. Why can't I just connect it using Z-Wave thru my Samsung Smartthings? This makes no sense. Apparently, it's coming soon, but when?
I connected mine without any configuration to my Ring doorbell (which wasn't connected at time of install). Just go with the setup and see if it connects.
LifeHackster Maybe I'm confused. I want to be able to unlock my door straight from inside the ring app. After speaking with a Ring rep, my understanding is that function isn't available at the moment unless I have a Ring alarm installed. There is no option for locks under "set up a device" in my Ring app. Can you clarify?
@@mxpxboy77 - Oh.. I got you..Yes, you need the Ring alarm... The alarm base uses z wave that is why you can connect other devices to it.
Do other Z wave sensor work with the ring alarm
At this time No but Ring might open it to other z wave manufacturers in their future updates.
So I did see a video where some one was able to add a GE door sensor by clicking pair Manually and it was able to connect but didn’t set off the alarm if triggered. Hope ring adds that feature soon.
Do you know if Ring is compatible with IRIS by Lowes?
Probably not but I'm not sure.
Iris is shut down. Consider purchasing Zwave Plus items to replace items your Iris items.
It would be awesome if the alarm disarmed automatically as soon as you entered the pin number on the lock.
Will there be integration Ring alarm with Ring security camera?
There will be on their future updates.
Now when you lock the door you can set ring to arm the alarm
I was under the impression that once you unlock the door, that automatically disarms the alarm. Is that an option?
Yes..ring eventually made an update that now you can unlock the door and you also automatically disarm the system..
Yea, I installed the lock today. It does disarm the alarm. No Amazon Key is necessary.
@@LifeHackster can you update your description with all the things that Ring added since your video?
Any Alexa integration coming soon? Or is there some now?
Not at this time but I know Ring is working on an update.
It's here as of two days ago. support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020637752-Control-Your-Alarm-Integrated-Smart-Locks-with-Alexa
So I can unlock the door and it won't sound the alarm?
Yes, but it will go off when you open it.
No August locks?
Not yet.
I just installed a Schlage Connect and Ring said it couldn't update the access code :(
Contact Ring's customer support. Also, the alarm and the locks are Alexa integrated. I still need to check it out.
Does this integrate with Ring Alarm AND Google Assistant?
Yes, with the Ring alarm.
@@LifeHackster so not with Google Assistant/Homes also?
I use this everyday.
Can you open a door using ring?
Yes..with compatible smart locks ( uses zwave)
sigh...ring needs to find a way to control z-wave devices while on cell backup.
2018
is it safe
Yes it is..I have been using it without any issues.
What’s the point of linking the lock with the Ring alarm system?
You can arm the alarm when you lock and disarm when you unlock automatically.
LifeHackster - Thanks. That’s pretty awesome.
lol the navigation to lock/unlock the door is a joke. also should include an option to lock/unlock the door when arming/unarming the alarm.
I know. Ring said that they will have the update for the alarm (arm/disarm) integration in the works.
FIRST
With RING, can I set my Yale lock to automatically lock after 30 seconds?
