Zwave door alarm with keypad?

[JDRoberts]

The alternative is to use multiple devices, which means the cost is going to go up pretty quickly. There are some all-in-one Z wave devices, but they’re only sold as part of specific security systems, and they are not compatible with SmartThings as they have additional proprietary features.

So that means you end up with one keypad device (either the Lowe’s Iris zigbee keypad or a minimote 4 button or an android tablet) +1 siren plus a door sensor.

That still doesn’t give you exit and entry delays, though, because SmartThings doesn’t support them in the official features. Which means you would need to use Core to put everything together.

FAQ: What is WebCoRE? (And what was CoRE?)

CoRE (now WebCore) is a very powerful community – created rules engine for SmartThings. It allows you to set up stacked conditionals like “If A then B but only while C and not if D.” Setting it up can be quite complex, but there are many community members who will be glad to help you. For example, here is a piston that one member created to notify him if the dog had already been fed twice that day and he picked up the dog bowl for a third time. He needed this because he has a large family and people didn’t always remember whose turn it was to feed the dog.

This allows for flexibility and an architecture that requires more memory than is av…

And as others have mentioned, there still the range issue depending on how far away the shed is.

So I think it might be possible to get the same functionality, but it would be quite a bit of effort and cost to set up.
