looking for device that checks whether door is locked

Post by curious »

Does anyone know of a device that checks whether the door is locked ?
Must be cheap :) and easy to install.

Note : I don't want to check whether the door is closed. And i do not want to completely replace my door lock (cilinder)
Hardware from Nuki etc are far to expensive.

lots of options:
  • microswitch
  • reed contact (need to fix a small magnet to the deadbolt)
  • hall element
  • deadbolt sensor
  • Insteon 2845-222 Hidden Door Sensor
