I have a Yale lock on a cabin door (so not normal full thickness) and I understand I can use the Smart Latch 2 on this - https://archipro.co.nz/product/yale-smart-latch-assa-abloy however they seem to be EOL in NZ. Anyone have one they want to sell or know where I can get one?

Many thanks!

I have the deadbolt smart Yale with a HomeKit and Zigbee chip if you’re interested. Can check exact model later.

Thanks! I may not be able to fit a deadbolt - my Yake Unity locks do not work on the cabin door due to it being thinner than normal, but still keep to look at other options.

And good point, if another lock works, then I am happy to consider it. Yale is an advantage as I have the app vs. other apps. And I should point out that HomeKit it a requirement.

I have some Aqara u200 that I wasn’t able to use, they are added on to an existing lock.

@dylanp - can you tell me more about this - I thought they where a stand-alone lock?  

For everyone - I am still on the lookup, ideally for the Smart Latch 2.
