Kwikset takes a smart approach with its new smart lock

This smart lock splits the difference on Matter.

The Halo Select is Kwikset’s first new smart lock in five years, and its new features, updated design, and creative approach to connectivity could make the long wait worthwhile. Kwikset says it has also upgraded the motor to be more powerful and quieter than its previous locks, and the Halo Select meets the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association’s (BHMA) top AAA certification for physical security. These include lighting, thermostats, locks, robot vacuums, refrigerators, dishwashers, dryers, ovens, smoke alarms, air quality monitors, EV chargers, and more.
