Kwikset has announced the upcoming launch of Halo Select, a smart door that offers both Wi-Fi and Matter built-in for homeowners seeking flexible, reliable, and integrated smart home security. Choose the connection method that suits the job best, and switch if the smart home needs evolve.
With the Kwikset app and built-in Wi-Fi (no hub required), Halo Select empowers users to control your front door from anywhere — lock, unlock, and grant access to guests, all without traditional keys. Homeowners can share access with family or trusted guests through unique codes or in-app, with real-time notifications ensuring they stay informed about who’s coming and going. The lock also integrates geofence technology to intelligently unlock as you approach your home.
By incorporating Matter over Thread, Halo Select integrates seamlessly with all compatible smart home platforms and devices. With Kwikset’s in-app compatibility check and guided setup, the transition to Matter is also simple and stress-free.
Halo Select redefines smart lock excellence by combining thoughtful design with trusted security and technology. Its bright user-friendly touchscreen features dedicated keypad indicators. The lock’s door status sensor confirms the door is properly closed and has not been left ajar, while instant notifications alert users to any potential security issues such as invalid code attempts or lock tampering. Halo Select features Kwikset’s new quiet motor for a swift locking and unlocking experience. Plus, Halo Select is third-party tested to meet the highest BHMA Grade AAA standards and UL 20-minute fire rating for added peace of mind.
Halo Select’s DIY installation is simple, requiring only a screwdriver, while the interactive in-app guide streamlines the process and provides clear hardware installation steps. No hardwiring required, the lock is powered by four alkaline AA batteries or a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack (sold separately) for better sustainability and convenience.
Kwikset will launch an NFC tap-to-unlock variant, Halo Select+, in early 2025.
Kwikset’s Halo Select will retail for $279 and is expected to be in-stock both online and in stores by mid-November.
