    While HA would be best, traditional remotes work too especially since one of the goals is an independent locking mechanism. I’m fine with clicking the button in my car or entering the code on an outside unit, especially knowing there are no common failure modes with a front door smartlock

      Absolutely 100%. Two of our cars have garage door openers built in anyway (Toyota), so that makes it even easier.
