Discontinued. The manufacturer no longer sells this one new, so a retailer link here can land on remaining stock, a used or refurbished unit, or a successor model - check what the listing is before buying.

Ultraloq U-Bolt Pro Z-Wave - Five unlock methods in one lock - fingerprint, keypad, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, and physical key

Quick verdict

The Ultraloq U-Bolt Pro Z-Wave packs five unlock methods into a surprisingly compact design. Z-Wave gives you fully local Home Assistant control via Z-Wave JS, while the fingerprint reader handles day-to-day entry. You'll need a Z-Wave controller, but once set up, it's one of the most versatile smart locks available for local-first setups. Availability is the catch: U-tec no longer lists it on its own storefront, so treat it as remaining-stock only.

Standout: Five unlock methods in one lock - fingerprint, keypad, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, and physical key.

Local control facts

Home Assistant: zwave_js integration, Local Push (home-assistant.io, checked Sep 10, 2026)

Why it stands out

multiple unlock methods - fingerprint, keypad, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, and physical key
Z-Wave integration with Home Assistant is fully local via Z-Wave JS
sleek, compact design compared to many smart locks

Reasons to hesitate

requires a Z-Wave controller for Home Assistant integration
Bluetooth range is limited for app-based unlocking
firmware updates require the U-tec app (cloud)
no longer listed on U-tec own storefront - remaining-stock only; the in-production Bolt Z-Wave has no fingerprint reader

Best for

Z-Wave Home Assistant setups wanting a feature-rich smart lock
households needing multiple unlock methods (fingerprint, code, key)

Avoid if

you have no Z-Wave controller
you want Matter or Thread support for future-proofing

Privacy and local-control notes

Z-Wave control is fully local through Home Assistant. Bluetooth is device-to-device. The U-tec app uses cloud for remote access, but Z-Wave operation needs no cloud. Fingerprint data stored locally on the lock.

Home Assistant support: supported · integration path: zwave_js.

Buying reality check

Price notes: Mid-range for a multi-method smart lock. Good value given the feature set.
