Are there any z-wave devices that could replace this door stop? It’s mounted on the face of a sliding door.

I'm not aware of anything that would be a direct swap for something like this, particularly within the Z-Wave ecosystem.

#

If it were me, I think I'd maybe start looking into what's available off the shelf for "dumb" electronic locks for sliding doors, and plan on pairing that with a gpio/relay device of your choice.

That wouldn’t be terrible if you wrapped the floor plate in a matching wood veneer honestly

I was looking for something similar to make my sliding patio door smart. There are locks but they look to be of varying quality and there is so much variance in the door types. I also saw the Haven products, but that price is absolutely insane so I just gave up on the idea for now

#

I also have a kickstop lock like yours but I did not find any smart direct replacement

Providing power is probably the biggest issue -- I really can't think of a clean way to provide hard wired power to something like this, which is probably why the Haven offering s so big/bulky.

It would probably be battery powered anyway like most locks

#

The biggest power requirement would be to move what would presumably be a pretty hefty locking mechanism

The bolt just has to move 1inch a couple of times a day. I feel like it could be simple design powered by 2 AA batteries

just found this but not sure if it works with home assistant. Pricey and installation doesn’t look easy.
