I will be renting out a short term apartment over AirBnb and Booking. The entire apartment will be rebuilt.
What Nuki devices would you recommend me for the best experience and as close to no maintenance?
I need:
- door lock
- Opener
- Keypad
- bridge (for wifi connection)
- power pack
Questions:
- Are there other methods to unlock the main building doors? currently they are wired to intercoms for apartments
- Does a door lock work only with a Nuki cylinder, or what kind of cylinders?
- Does Nuki work with HomeAssistant?
- Is it possible to put a Keypad 2 pro outside and combine it with Opener? i would like to have a robust solution outside.

Let me share my two cents:
- Are there other methods to unlock the main building doors? currently they are wired to intercoms for apartments
=> You need to connect the Opener to the Intercom. Make sure to check for compatibility. though…
- Does a door lock work only with a Nuki cylinder, or what kind of cylinders?
=> You can use any cylinder that supports the “emergency function” (you can unlock your door from the outside even if a key is inserted on the inside)
- Does Nuki work with HomeAssistant?
=> The Nuki integration was introduced in Home Assistant 0.38
- Is it possible to put a Keypad 2 pro outside and combine it with Opener? i would like to have a robust solution outside.
=> That I do not know but my guess would be that it is possible.
