10 months agoI have three locks and managed to find three newish Kwikset 910 locks for anywhere between $20-40 each. You just have to watch ebay listings and wait for a good deal to pop up.

I honestly just use the frigate web ui as my dashboard. It has everything I need and can be easily accessed from the home assistant app. The only other thing I do is pop up the view on my fully kiosk wall panel when a person is detected for a minute or two. Makes it easy to just glance at who’s at the door without having to fiddle with it.
I mean this in the nicest way possible, but if this threw you for a loop, you’re in for a world of hurt once you get the software up and running. It’s not rocket science, but learning to administer any Linux server will take a little time. I’m sure it’s not bricked. Consider this an opportunity to learn how to write a new disk image and interact with your new server through the console.
