Kwikset, the leader in residential security, announces that its line of SmartCode™ locks will be a part of Logitech’s new Harmony Living Home lineup of entertainment and home automation devices.

Logitech’s Harmony® Living Home brings together a wide array of compatible brands, such as Kwikset™, Honeywell®, Lutron®, Sylvania® and many others, to create one centralised and integrated system for home control.

Kwikset’s line of innovative SmartCode™ home automation security solutions is comprised of the industry’s broadest range of keyless entry deadbolt and lever locks, all designed to provide maximum convenience and security. Two recent additions to the SmartCode™ line are the highly popular SmartCode™ 914 Touchpad Electronic Deadbolt, with its best-in-class reduced interior size, and the new SmartCode™ 916 Touchscreen Electronic Deadbolt, which provides all the features of SmartCode – including keyless entry – combined with the added convenience and enhanced aesthetics of a capacitive touchscreen.

“In expanding its capabilities from entertainment system control to a full home automation hub, the new Logitech Harmony® Living Home provides a complete, centralised and integrated solution,” said Keith Brandon, director of Residential Access Solutions for Kwikset. “Our convenient and innovative SmartCode locks are a natural fit for Logitech’s home automation solution, as consumers will now have the ability to seamlessly control their locks and other connected devices using one central interface.”

Kwikset’s SmartCode deadbolts and levers with Home Connect™ technology integrate with home security and automation systems, allowing the locks to communicate with other wireless products in the home. 

Other features of Kwikset’s SmartCode locks with Home Connect technology include: Kwikset’s patented SmartKey® Re-key Technology, that allows homeowners to re-key their locks in seconds without having to remove the lock from the door; BumpGuard™ technology that protects homeowners from lock bumping; the ease of one-touch locking; and the ability to integrate with the widest variety of wireless security and home automation platforms in the industry.
