Hello Lemmy!

I have moved to a walkable area and no longer need to have my car keys on me all the time. My landlord has put in a crappy 4 digit combination style door lock, but said I could change it.

What is the best kind of keyless door lock that I can use instead? Ideally one with decent enough security to be as good or better than a key?

Thanks for your input!

I have a Yale PIN lock that has swappable wireless cards. I use it on a Zigbee network, but that's completely optional. It's fantastic. Even without the wireless, it's great.

I've had to reprogram it once or twice just due to issues with my smart home stuff, and even the physical interface is nice and easy, assuming you're just entering your PIN or if you have the manual available if you're doing anything more involved.
