How to choose
Unlock methods and codes
Fingerprint, keypad, app, voice, and physical key all appear across this group, in different combinations. The ULTRALOQ, eufy, Ulecoce, and Philips open by fingerprint, while the Yale opens by keypad, app, and backup key. Codes differ too: the ULTRALOQ stores 50 codes, the Philips creates up to 100 custom passcodes, and the Ulecoce stores up to 512 fingerprint and code sets. Match the method you use daily with the lock that offers it.
Wi-Fi, Matter, and hubs
Built-in Wi-Fi gives remote control without a hub on the ULTRALOQ, eufy, Philips, and Yale. The ULTRALOQ also supports Matter over Thread through Apple Home or other Matter apps, but that path needs a compatible Thread Border Router hub. The Ulecoce works with Alexa and Google Assistant only when paired with a Ulecoce gateway sold separately. Check which path your home already uses before you buy.
Battery life and auto-lock
Battery life is stated in months on two locks: up to 18 months for the ULTRALOQ and around 8 months for the eufy on 8 AA batteries. The Yale pairs auto-lock with DoorSense, which checks that the door is fully closed first. Compare the stated months and seconds with your own routine.
