any model?
It depends on what functions you are after, and your current door and locks.
If you need a deadbolt or rim, there are A30, DS510, 3321 or DS705
If you are thinking of mortise type, DH525, 537, 538, P717, P718, DP609, DR708…
The electronic trilock Gainsborough looks great!

We have an August Smart Lock + Connect https://august.com/products/august-smart-lock-connect
it was more expensive than a lot of the competition. I ended up finding a good prices unit on eBay. It is good though. When you are within bluetooth range it opens and then locks automatically a predefined time later. I can also remote unlock and lock from anywhere. The app is really simple and intuitive. I have noticed that now and then the bluetooth will fail to unlock the door - seems to also occur when the batteries in it are running low. They get changed about once every 6-9 months. Hope that helps!
I have a Lockly deadbolt - they're available from Bunnings.
I love it - it's one of the few I found when looking that also has a fingerprint reader (there may be more now) and key backup just in case. A bit pricier than others but I'm more than happy with it. The fingerprint scanner is even handier than expected, for example, walk out, lock the door, realise I've forgotten something and rather than retyping a 6 digit pin just touch the scanner and boom. Admittedly only saves a few seconds but still….
Make sure it works without power too.
I believe there would be a warning message for battery low. thanks for your feedback.
