Which smart lock works with a Ring doorbell?
The Schlage Arrive Smart WiFi Deadbolt ($199) carries Schlage's "Works with Ring" badge. Ring is an Amazon brand, so any lock that works with Alexa can sit in the same Alexa app as your Ring doorbell; we track 12 of them. Remember that the Ring doorbell itself records only with a Ring plan, from $4.99 a month.

How to pick
- Built-in Wi-Fi is the simplest: nothing else to plug in. Bridge and Thread locks can have better battery life, but remote access needs extra hardware.
- Renting? A retrofit lock keeps your existing deadbolt and keys.
- Think about the whole front door. If you're about to pay for a Ring plan only for the doorbell, compare a no-fee doorbell plus lock in the planner.

Does a Ring doorbell need a subscription to work with a lock?
Locks connect through their own app or Alexa, not through Ring's plan. The plan only matters for saving the doorbell's video: without it you get live view and alerts but no recordings.
Is there a lock and doorbell in one?
Yes. eufy's FamiLock S3 Max and Video Smart Lock S330 and E330 put a doorbell camera in the lock, and they record without a monthly fee. They replace your Ring doorbell rather than working with it.
This is the general answer. Your house has its own.
