Depends on the lock. Some Wi-Fi models connect straight to your router. Others use a small plug-in bridge for remote access. Z-Wave and Zigbee locks always need a hub, such as SmartThings, Hubitat, or a compatible smart home system. Tell us your model when you call.
Most smart deadbolts run several months on a set of batteries, depending on how often the lock is used. The lock will chirp or send an app alert when the battery is getting low. Most models have a key cylinder or an outside emergency battery contact. Keep a spare key or a 9-volt battery where you can reach it.
Most smart deadbolts include a physical key override even though you will usually use the app or a code day to day. A few models are keypad-or-app-only with no key cylinder at all. Tell us if a physical key backup matters to you when you call.
