Xiaomi's new smart lock upgrades existing locks without door modifications. Features fingerprint, app control, voice commands, and Matter protocol support.
Xiaomi has expanded its smart home lineup with a smart lock that users can install themselves without modifying their door structure. Designed to upgrade existing mechanical locks, it mounts over standard cylinders, requiring no alterations.
The device is compatible with eight lock types, including common Euro-profile cylinders, British mortise mechanisms, and ASSA 2000 systems. It supports keys up to 5 mm thick, though it has specific requirements for cylinder protrusion, making installation possible on most standard doors.
For unlocking, it offers multiple methods: a fingerprint scanner, permanent and temporary passwords, Bluetooth connection, remote access via the Xiaomi Home app, voice control, and traditional keys. Voice commands work with popular smart home ecosystems like Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Home, though some cases may require additional authorization. All authentication methods use the same security level.
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity allow real-time monitoring of the lock's status. The app displays access logs, current door status, security notifications, and alerts for family arrivals. The protection system includes automatic locking, reminders for open doors, alerts for forced openings, tamper attempts, and multiple failed entry attempts. An additional external keyboard with IP65 protection features a semiconductor fingerprint sensor with 99.3% recognition accuracy. Some functions may require installing the keyboard or a door sensor.
The lock supports the Matter protocol, ensuring compatibility with various smart home platforms, and runs on Xiaomi's proprietary MJA1 chipset. It is certified to the European cybersecurity standard EN18031. A built-in 2450 mAh lithium battery provides up to six months of autonomy with normal use.
Product information first appeared on Xiaomi's global website in October 2025. The smart lock is now available in Japan for 12,980 yen and in the UAE for 359 dirhams. Support pages for the UK and several EU countries have also been published, suggesting a potential European market launch soon, though exact dates and prices remain undisclosed.
