Built upon the Thread protocol, which is purposely developed for IoT devices, the Smart Lock U200 Lite is Matter-certified and integrates with major platforms – including Alexa, Apple Home, Google Home, Home Assistant, and SmartThings – without the need for a proprietary hub¹. As an integral part of a connected home, the U200 Lite can be integrated with a variety of smart devices, from video doorbells, surveillance cameras to smart sensors, enabling users to create a customized and enhanced smart security system.

The U200 Lite is compatible with Euro mortise locks with the Emergency Function², and supports EU profile and select Scandi profile cylinders. Its hassle-free retrofit design offers homeowners and renters an instant update to their existing locks, without the need for complex installations, key changes, or door modification.

Multiple secure door entry options are offered by the U200 Lite. Family members can conveniently unlock it using mobile apps (Aqara Home and other Matter-enabled apps) or voice commands via Siri and Alexa. More intuitively, they can also unlock by simply tapping their iOS and Android phones on the provided NFC Sticker Card, which can be placed on the outside of the front door. Even when away, homeowners can remotely open the door for visitors using the mobile app. All remote functionalities, such as real-time alerts, device logs, and remote unlocking, are provided subscription-free.

With its built-in gyroscope, the U200 Lite provides acoustic reminders if the door is not properly closed, ensuring it is never left unsecured. Once closed, it automatically locks, and there is no need for an external door sensor —offering a more aesthetically pleasing and cost-effective solution³. Other popular features that the U200 Lite model retains from its predecessor, the U200, include:

• Quiet Mode reduces the noise level during unlocking and locking³.
• Pull Spring automatically retracts the door latch upon unlocking³.
• Turn to Lock/Unlock allows effortless manual locking/unlocking³.

Equipped with a 2,000 mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery, the U200 Lite offers a battery life of up to 6 months on a single charge⁴, eliminating the hassle of frequent battery swaps and promoting an eco-friendly lifestyle.
