I've recently decided to up my security, but I don't want it to be an annoyance for the family to use. I also have an aversion to web hosted things, so I'd like something that is locally hosted/controlled, without a "Setup app"

I'm open to deadbolt and regular latch smart locks.

What options are out there? what do you use? do you like it?

I've been looking for the same. Most of what I've seen is homebrew stuff where the lock is in the wall and snaps into a slot or standout on the door. There are plenty of homebrew solutions for that which work using home-assistant or whatever, but I wish I could find more commercial solutions which are not using cloud and/or proprietary software.
