SwitchBot unveils high-torque retrofit smart lock for European doors

With 19 distinct entry methods ranging from palm vein recognition to standard NFC, SwitchBot’s Lock Ultra Max Vision Pro Combo aims to eliminate the need for traditional keys. Debuting at IFA, the system targets the fragmented European market by prioritizing broad hardware compatibility alongside significantly boosted motorized turning power.

Priced at €339.99, the package includes the Lock Ultra Max, the Keypad Vision Pro, and a Hub Mini Matter. This hardware suite supports 99 percent of European door configurations, including EU profile cylinders, Swiss round cylinders, and UK oval cylinders. For unconventional installations, the company provides specific adapters to ensure a seamless fit across diverse entryways.

The system distinguishes itself from the previous year’s €249.99 model through a substantial mechanical upgrade. The new motor delivers over 9 kilograms of turning force at 160rpm, effectively tripling the rotation speed of its predecessor. Users can manage access via facial scans, fingerprint authentication, voice commands, or smartwatch integration, positioning this retrofit device as a direct competitor to integrated smart lock solutions.
