Smart Lock without Phone Home (partizle.com)

I've recently decided to up my security, but I don't want it to be an annoyance for the family to use. I also have an aversion to web hosted things, so I'd like something that is locally hosted/controlled, without a "Setup app"

I'm open to deadbolt and regular latch smart locks.

What options are out there? what do you use? do you like it?

Pretty much any Z-Wave lock like from Kiwkset, Schlage, Yale, etc. will do what you need provided you have a Z-Wave interface to HA already. No phone home for those devices.

I will comment that the yale version 2 required an app(setup via Bluetooth), which I was less than thrilled about. But I just removed the app when done and just use my zwave.
