POPP - Z-Wave Plus KeyPad? Other U.K. Keypad Options?

If this product is sold in Europe it should work with the ST UK hub from a frequency compatibility perspective.

From a device handler handler perspective, I went through the specs and most of it’s functionality will work fine with the stock ST Z-Wave Lock device handler (you may need to assign it manually). It will work like lock device where you can program user codes (e.g. using SmartLocks or any custom apps) and then it’ll send a unlock event when the correct programmed code is used. It supports upto 20 user codes.

If you want to use all the user code related features and if you have access to RBoy Apps you can use the Enhanced Universal Z-Wave Lock device handler which will enable all the additional features like invalid codes, tampering etc:

Do keep in mind that it doesn’t actually have a lock/physical device, so you’ll need a separate app to take actions when a user “unlocks” the keypad. For that you can create custom actions using CoRE or WebCORE if you’re familiar / comfortable using the (here’s a guide on how to create custom actions on CoRE/WebCoRE when using a lock handler):

Alternatively, if you have access to RBoy Apps you can use the Door Lock Code User Management SmartApp to both, program the users into the keypad as well as take actions when the the keypad is unlocked and locked (like opening/closing garage doors, or manipulating other switches or even operating other locks).

If you end up buying this keypad, ping me and we can add a few more keypad specific configurations to the Enhanced Universal Z-Wave Lock DTH that will allow you even more flexibility/control over your keypad.
