Key characteristics
Highlights
- ✓ Quick retrofit over the existing thumbturn
- ✓ Optional fingerprint + code keypad
- ✓ Fast motor and Matter support via hub
- ✓ Undercuts Nuki and Yale on price
Our take
SwitchBot's Lock Ultra packs a lot for the money: it retrofits fast, the optional fingerprint keypad is excellent, the motor is quick, and Matter support arrives via the SwitchBot hub. Build feels a step below Nuki and you'll want the hub and keypad to get the best of it, but as a value system it's hard to beat.
