FAQs
Will the first generation of the Smart Lock also support HomeKit in the future?

Can the door sensor be retrofitted for the 1st generation Smart Lock?

Is the new Smart Lock 2.0 quieter than the first generation?
The loudness of the locking process of our Smart Lock is determined by the form factor. This is mainly due to the feature of retrofitting, which is very important for us. A lot has already been done to optimize the locking paths of the Smart Lock and thus shorten the locking period. In any case, the Smart Lock tuning leads to a significant improvement here. We know that the easy retrofittability of the Smart Lock is a major selling point for the majority of our customers. More than 80% of our customers use the Nuki Smart Lock on their existing locking cylinders. For this reason, we have also stuck to our successful hardware concept with the Smart Lock 2.0 and have not changed the form factor of the Smart Lock.
