Kwikset’s SmartCode 888 Chosen for D.R. Horton’s New Smart Home System
Kwikset, a brand of Spectrum Brands Inc. – Hardware & Home Improvement Division, announced that its SmartCode 888 Deadbolt Lock was chosen to become part of the new Home is Connected smart home system from D.R. Horton Inc.
The inclusion of Kwikset’s SmartCode 888 in the system was based on its value (functionality at an entry-level price), reliability and high degree of security. Incorporating the latest Z-Wave 500 chipset, the SmartCode 888 offers keyless entry through a convenient, easy-to-use touchpad. Kwikset’s patented Home Connect technology enables the lock to wirelessly communicate with other devices in the home through a third-party smart home controller, as well as to remotely check the door lock status, lock or unlock the door and receive notifications.
