ULTRALOQ U-Bolt Pro Smart Lock with WiFi Bridge, 7-in-1 Fingerprint Keyless Entry Door Lock, App Remote Control, Backlit Keypad, Auto Unlock, Front Door Smart Deadbolt, IP65 Waterproof, 1Year Battery

So like some other people mentioned already its not perfect. But I think whatever negatives there are definitely out weigh the positives. So with that being said I will tell you how it is after 3 months of using it. I have a wife and a 18 year old son who also use the front door. I installed the door and had no issues with installation. I read about the bolts being too tight, so I checked the lock manually to verify its smooth as I went along, no issues. Once installation done I downloaded the app and started programming all of us into the app. I'm the tech guy in the house so I'm the administrator user. Adding everyone in is easy. I got a bit confused when you add a user email for the app. It should send an email to that user for the app. It didn't for some reason. No biggie, when my wife and son downloaded the app just make sure they sign up using the email address you have listed for them. They can use the app to unlock the door through Bluetooth but I'm the only user to unlock with wifi and program other users. That works for us. So I hooked up the bridge last which is why I think the email for my users didn't send. I probably should've hooked up the bridge first then program my users. Oh well it worked out in the long run. I did have some trouble hooking up to wifi but again I'm the techy guy so I figured it out. Must have 2.4 ghz wifi. Not sure if you can get your deadbolt changed to match your current house locks, I didn't try because I didn't buy this to use the key. We bought it for the ease of access it will give us. So as the keys they gave us work we never use them, its awesome. I like the fact that when we're not home I can check the log to see if my son is home or if he came home. It logs who came in if they use pin code or finger print. If you use key or unlock from the inside then it logs it as manual. No way to tell who it is. That's expected. Great feature. You can easily set up a temporary user with pin code to use at specific time or times. How many times they get to use that pin. I like it for my parents. I send them a code and they can walk right in. Now it doesn't know if the door is open or closed but my son left the house and didn't make sure the door was all the way closed. It notified me saying the lock is jammed. So with the door not closed all the way it was hitting the frame. I don't have my log notifying me with anything but it did notify for this which was good. So now I have lock the door when he leaves. To manually lock the door when you leave just press the big button on the bottom as you leave. This ensures him that the door is closed. Overall I think this is a great product and would recommend it to anyone. Very happy with this purchase. It takes time to set everything up but in the end it worked out great for my family. Oh I didn't hook it up to my Alexa. That was my choice, so I can't comment on that. I do have it hooked to wifi which I can control from anywhere. That was my preference I guess. Stop debating, just get it.

To start off, this is my 5th smartlock. From cheap to expensive, so I have extensive use knowledge, comparisons against competitors, and integration experience (smart integrated house). This lock is replacing a Kwikset Kevo and it's hands down a better lock. It's cheaper and the version I bought included the bridge (with the Kevo the bridge was an additional cost of around $100). I would say, with what I wanted, it's a perfect lock. This lock is for the garage interior door (standard sized door including the deadbolt cutout) and the objective behind a smart lock here is to assist with opening the door when hands are full and/or without a key/app in hand or opened. We solely use this door for entry/exit and it's behind garage doors for decreased accessibility to the public. The Kevo worked perfectly for this at first but as phones upgraded and security increased, the reliability of the blue tooth connectivity became less and less reliable and forced us to open the app to unlock the door at almost every use, defeating the purpose of a "hands-free" lock. Other locks performed nearly identical in regards to blue tooth connectivity as the Kevo, likely due to infrequent updates and wide ranges of phone models. This lock has great features, much more in comparison, and has 3 methods of preference. Biometrics, PIN, and geo-based auto-unlock. Biometrics seem to work flawlessly provided you set it up properly. I've used them about 40 times at the time of writing this review without one issue. PIN code works exactly as it should and does not require comment on this tried and true method (other than the PIN hide feature if you're paranoid someone is watching). Finally, the Auto-Unlock geofencing. This has worked perfectly so far. I put the target in the middle of my house, even though the actual lock is near the house edge. I did this to ensure that my house and backyard is covered in the radius so if I'm in either, it would keep the mode to back and not unlock if I leave the radius in my yard and re-enter causing the lock to unlock. It works like this, once you've entered the radius, it will unlock and set your mode to "Back". Once you leave the radius, it changes your mode to "Away", and the next time you re-enter the radius it will switch to back and unlock. This ensures it's not unlocking once you're in your house and are within the radius. This is intelligently designed and I'm confident that it's working as intended. You can also set to receive notifications once the auto-unlock feature is triggered so you'd know if your distance from the lock is triggering an unlock. I had someone assist in testing the range and it's pretty accurate. The lowest setting is 300m but will go up to 600m and 1000m. I do not use the auto-lock setup, but plan to once all the users of the door have PINs and fingerprints added, as it's time based but it is a good option as long as you have a PIN and/or fingerprint setup (so you wouldn't get locked out if you forgot your phone inside). The included bridge runs on the 2.4ghz band (pretty standard for smart home appliances due to its range and compatibility) and should be within 10-15ft of the lock. Mine has a full signal at about 12ft with a couch blocking the line of sight. I do not use Alexa or other smarthome companions for home security devices so I cannot describe it's integration features/skills but I imagine it's like the other security devices and only allows you to lock and not unlock. The only improvement I'd suggest is the nob on the interior mechanism. It's black on black and you can't easily see if it's unlocked or not. I plan to resolve this by dremeling a notch and painting the groove white to see its position. All-in-all, I'm very happy with this lock and if ever phone security is interfering with the auto-unlock feature, the biometrics and/or PIN can be used for an easier access method. I would recommend this every time someone wants to use a smartlock. SUPPLEMENTAL REVIEW - 7 Oct 2021 Everything is still working perfectly. Batteries were swapped 1 time over the year, so that's excellent. In comparison, my other locks required multiple changes over the year. No issues with it doing/not doing what was expected. Due to COVID, I did turn off the geo-fencing since we work from home now. The auto-lock is set to 10 minutes but we all have PIN and bio settings, no locked out people. Issuing codes to others is easy and it works without issue. Still 5 stars

It is a good lock and it has a good app to manage it remotely. I am very happy with it overall, however the battery does have some issues.

Produto de qualidade atendeu todas as expectativas, experiência de compra satisfatória mesmo sendo produto internacional, apenas a instalação no meu caso porta de alumínio requer um profissional qualificado

This lock is installed on our south facing main front entry door so receives a lot of use and a lot of heat from the sun every day. I mention this because after 10 months the deadbolt would not slide in and out smoothly. Perhaps too many grandkids closing the door while the bolt was in the closed position and the bolt got slightly bent. But not a problem as I contacted Ultra Lock and a replacement bolt was sent right away and I replaced it and works perfectly now. Some great features include being able to turn on or off or set the timing of the bolt closure especially if there is a lot of in and out activity. I found the fingerprint access and code is excellent and works well for the younger generation but for me being in my 60’s I think I have worn my fingerprints too much as it only works occasionally for me. I also like the setting to unlock the door as my wife and I drive up our driveway and then lock’s back up after we have been home for a set period of time. At night we never have to worry that we forgot to lock the door. The lock was easy to install and was a replacement for an older manual system and my wife really likes the look of the new Ultra Lock. I also like we can remotely control and check that our door is locked when we are away.

ACTUALIZACIÓN 2/DIC/25 : Después de varias actualizaciones de software y retroalimentación de servicio al cliente ya ha estado funcionando bien la cerradura. La batería ha funcionado bien, y el puente de WIFI ya trabaja correctamente a distancia. El tiempo de cierre se ha podido extender, aunque al no tener sensor de cierre se seguirá cerrando sola sin importar si esta abierta, pero bueno, en resumen ya funciona. De inicio se ve práctica y buena. Antes tenía otra marca que por ser comprada por YALE dejo de funcionar en México. No compren YALE. En esta que parecía buena, esta llena de errores tontos. - No puede detectar la puerta abierta, se cierra sola y siempre pega el pasador. - El tiempo de cierre es mínimamente configurarle. - Segun abre por proximidad... si, lo hace lejos y al llegar a la cerradura ya esta cerrada de nuevo. - El adaptador WIF siempre esta en error. Lo dejas funcionando y al rato ya se desconecto otra vez. - La bateria una vez que se baja siempre marca que esta baja aunque las cambies. Es una pena, pudo ser buen producto. Lo único buen es que la lectura de huella funciona aceptablemente bien en la mayoría de las personas. La opción de traer llave mecánica lo salva a uno de sus propios errores. Compre tres cerraduras para sustituir las anteriores AUGUST que eran muy buenas hasta que la empresa la compró YALE y decidió que solo funcionaran en EEUU y Canadá, pero no en México. Absurda política.

So I purchased this about a year and a half ago, and ended up getting the V1 version of this hardware. My experience in setting it up, adding users, and then daily usage of the lock was all good, though I did have some trouble with the install - mainly because I'm not very handy. Some of the features on the app are not for me - like the geofencing options, just due to the nature of permeant work from home and the pandemic, but all of the features included make sense. I especially like that I can give someone temporary access to the home remotely, or link the device for smart home automation purposes. I did run into an issue with my original unit. The fingerprint scanner just quit on me one day, though all other features worked without issue. I reached out to support, following the warranty process, and they were extremely helpful. I first walked through all of the troubleshooting steps, and then we deemed it a defective fingerprint reader. Since the launch, there is now a V2 of the hardware, which is what I was replaced with. V2 addresses all of the shortcomings and challenges I ran into with the installation of the hardware, specifically notable a MUCH improved version of the cable that links the front interface to the main unit, and the backplate mount is much better. A really good company doesn't just launch and forget a product - they continue to upgrade and iterate it. It's great to see Ultraloq is invested in their products and have made some enhancements in the one year since I bought it. I will certainly look at Ultraloq for more products in the future based on my experience, and I would recommend them to any family/friends based on my experiences.
