Can anyone tell me if the Samsung SHS H505 smart door lock is compatible with SmartThings? I can’t find anything on their website that says which protocol it uses and I can’t find any mention of it here.
At present none of the Samsung smart locks are compatible with SmartThings. They are very cool devices, but made by a completely different division. Most of them use Bluetooth, which is not supported at the present time by the SmartThings Hub. 
( there is a Bluetooth radio in the V2 version of the hub, but it has never been activated.)
It looks like that specific model, H505, doesn’t have any networking capabilities other than an RFID reader. It definitely doesn’t work with the smartthings platform.
Not quite true anymore

Hmmm. OK. So it looks like these two are compatible, but not the H505. That was the one I saw for sale in Home Depot. It looked as thought they’d marked it down as it was stuffed at the back of the shelf behind the other non-smart locks. I had a quick look this morning and can’t see where either of those other two are available here in Mexico. I’ll have a proper look at the links you provided later today. I really like the Yale Connexis lock, but this isn’t available here either. If I’d planned better, I could have brought one with me from the UK. The Samsung seemed like a good alternative.
The Samsung locks are really nice looking, in my opinion.
That said, be careful about going by what it says in that device type handler. Those two models are not normally sold with zigbee modules. If you just pick one up somewhere, unless it says zigbee on the box, it’s unlikely that it will work with SmartThings.
I would contact Samsung smart home (the division that makes the locks) and get the details from them before investing any money. And make sure you buy from someplace with a good return policy, just in case.
The Universal Enhanced Z-Wave Lock DTH added support for Z-Wave Samsung SHP-xxx and SDP-xxx models a while ago which allows you to configured advanced features like enabling/disabling keypads, reporting the build in motion sensors etc.
The SHS models don’t support Z-Wave modules AFAIK.

HI
I have SAMSUNG SHP 728 DOOR LOCK and using z wave module which is under the link below .this module supports your lock aswell
it works well in terms OPEN/ CLOSE but due to my lock software i believe it does not report instantly when the door opens , only if you click refresh on the app or every hour ( thats default setting to device handler )

Hi
If any of you wants the latest samsung door lock model working with smartthings or other EU frequency z-wave hubs check this out
I purchased one of them and i am over the moon with the quality, look, and works perfect with smartthings
Hi,
Sorry to resurrect this old thread BUT I am having the exact issue regarding Samsung Locks and inability to locate Z-Wave modules.
Has anyone figured that out? I am in the US but would import a hub if I could figure out what frequency would be available for the locks. I also see some people state they have a DP609 but I can’t locate information on the Z-Wave chips people are using to get it to work.
Thanks for reading.
The UK, EU, and most of Asia, all use the same Zwave frequency, so a UK model Aeotec hub should work with the UK module version of the lock.

That said, that hub would then only work with z wave devices that were also on that same frequency. You can’t mix and match US frequency Z wave and EU frequency Z wave on the same hub. And of course, devices like light switches, and smart plugs on the EU frequency are going to be physically designed for the kind of wiring and voltage that you find in EU homes, not US homes.
Although theoretically possible to have one smartthings hub using US Z wave, and one SmartThings hub using EU zwave on the same SmartThings account, The app also does location checking based on the street address of your hub, and I don’t know if it can handle an account with two different Z wave regions. Maybe someone else will know. 
But that’s all assuming that this lock will work with the EU frequency. Singapore happens to use the same Z frequency as South Korea, so if it’s a Singapore module you would probably have to get an Aeotec hub on the South Korean frequency. And again, other features are going to be region locked. So it just gets pretty messy if you’re trying to go out of region from where you actually live.
Hi JD,
Thank yo so much for your insight and reply.
I have been digging through a lot of specs etc on the different Samsung lock options.
So I have an idea of which lock I think I can get but I’m having trouble finding confirmation of Z-wave module availability for the Samsung locks.
I finally noticed a small detail in the manuals today and they do specify which locks will support Zigbee/Z-Wave but, I am not really finding reliable information on where to obtain a lock with a Z-wave module included.
The IoT versions seem to include the WiFi only option and need an app to control.
I’m hoping to bypass the app and use a hub along with the Rboy custom drivers.
I am sure someone will share the relevant details if they aren’t already here for me to find.
The SHP-DR719 is very close to this model:

But the instructions for the 719 don’t mention the Z-wave ability. I’m wondering if I should try plugging one in and seeing if it works anyway.
I will keep researching. Please let me know if you find anything. Thanks.
