5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to install!

2026-01-07    -J. Brooks

This lock was very easy to install. The App was easy to navigate. It works perfectly the first try. I personally like the smaller number pad on the outside of the door. My wife liked the size of the lever on the inside of the door. She said it made it easier to grab onto and lock the door. I recommend this lock.

4.0 out of 5 stars So far, so good!

My Yale/Nest lock became increasingly flakey, going offline sporadically until, after resetting it many times, it eventually refused to connect at all. (I worked the problem for a *long* time before giving up and buying this as a replacement. There were a lot of people online with the same problem and the "fixes" didn't help.)I was pleasantly surprised that the installation was easy. The only part of the installation that was poorly documented was the bit about the door sensor. The door sensor monitors whether the door is physically shut or not (since the deadbolt can be operated regardless of whether the door is open or closed). I watched the YouTube video and it explained things better that the written instructions, so, overall, installation was problem-free.The app is a little over-engineered, in my opinion. You set up "Addresses", "Locations" within an Address, and "Devices" within a location. I suppose it makes sense if, for example, you owned several properties with multiple buildings on each, with every unit in every building having two or more devices. For a person like me, with just one lock at a vacation home, it's overkill and unnecessarily complicated.The features of the app are great, comparable to what I had with the Yale/Nest lock. The two major differences are 1) that the ULTRALOQ has a sensor for when the door is open or shut and 2) the way to handle dead batteries.The Yale/Nest lock has contacts on the outside where you hold up a 9-volt battery to the lock, powering it long enough to get it unlocked. The ULTRALOQ has physical keys. I like having the physical keys very much, but they are no use if the physical key is not present. For example, if I wanted to give access to guests and the batteries were dead, I would have to drive hours to meet with them and get the door unlocked. It would be ideal to have both features: battery terminals AND physical keys. But I can't really knock it for not having a feature that I already knew it lacked.That said, the ULTRALOQ app tells me how strong the batteries are, which the Yale/Nest lock does not do. Another cool feature of the ULTRALOQ is that I can take it off the WiFi (and lose remote control capability) to extend battery life. I don't want to do that, but it's cool that it's possible.Replacing the batteries is easier with the ULTRALOQ. You need a tool or thin toothpick to get the battery cover off the Yale/Nest lock. The ULTRALOQ cover comes off just by applying gentle pressure.The ULTRALOQ has an "autolock" feature which seems a little too aggressive. I turned this off because I sometimes want to leave the front door open without the lock taking it upon itself to lock within seconds. There is also a feature to automatically unlock whenever a configured Bluetooth device approaches. That's also too automatic for me, but some users might appreciate it.Updating the firmware on the ULTRALOQ was a big pain. It took several attempts which failed randomly, despite the WiFi being strong and my phone being right next to the lock. That did not bode well, as it reminded me of trouble I've had with other devices. But it eventually worked.I would change my rating from four to five stars if the firmware updates worked more reliably and if the app was organized more intuitively. But, so far, the lock is working well and it has almost all the features I want.

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic lock!!!

The ULTRALOQ U-Bolt WiFi Smart Lock with Door Sensor has been a game-changer for my home security and convenience since I purchased it on June 9, 2024. As someone who was tired of fumbling with keys or worrying about lost spares, I was drawn to its 8-in-1 keyless entry system, which includes AI-powered fingerprint recognition, an anti-peep keypad, smartphone app control, auto unlock and lock features, web portal access, eKey sharing, voice commands via Alexa or Google Assistant, and traditional mechanical keys as a backup. Installation was straightforward, taking just minutes with only four screws and no wiring or drilling required, fitting perfectly on my standard US door. The built-in WiFi eliminated the need for an extra bridge, and the included door sensor provides real-time alerts on whether the door is open or closed, adding an extra layer of peace of mind. Right from the start, the lock’s IP65 weatherproof rating proved reliable through rainy seasons, and its ANSI Grade 1 certification assured me of its durability and strength. 19 15Over the past year, I’ve come to absolutely love how seamlessly this lock integrates into my daily routine. The fingerprint scanner, with its 360-degree live ID and self-learning AI, unlocks in a fraction of a second—even with slightly damp hands—and has been incredibly consistent, far outperforming other models I’ve tried in the past. Battery life has held up well, lasting 3-6 months with regular use, and the app sends timely low-battery notifications to prevent any lockouts. I’ve used the auto-unlock feature countless times when approaching with groceries in hand, and the ability to grant temporary eKeys to guests or family via the app has been invaluable for remote management, especially during trips. Integration with my smart home ecosystem, like triggering lights upon unlocking, has made everything feel more automated and secure, and the quiet motor operation ensures it doesn’t disturb the household. Despite some initial setup tweaks for WiFi stability, it has performed flawlessly in tests, responding instantly to commands without any major issues. 0 16In conclusion, after more than a year of daily use, I can confidently say I’ve loved the ULTRALOQ U-Bolt WiFi Smart Lock with Door Sensor more than any other smart home device I’ve owned—it’s reliable, versatile, and has eliminated so many small frustrations from my life. Whether for families, rentals, or busy professionals, its combination of advanced features, ease of use, and robust security makes it a standout choice. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their door lock; it’s earned its spot as a top-rated option in my book and continues to impress with every unlock.

Excellent after sales service.

After sales service excellent. Having purchased this item, I installed same, very easy to do, and it worked perfectly.However the device developed a fault in the bolt mechanism and I contacted the support. They quickly rectified the situation by replacing the whole lock (a new unit). I would definitely deal with them again, excellent service all round.

Works Great!

It connects through wifi and we can program temporary PINs. We can also unlock the door remotely! Good product!

5.0 out of 5 stars Stands behind their product.

2026-02-12    -Chris Bunthoff

I’ve installed several of these locks at two different homes and love the simplicity and operation of the locks. After nearly 1 year, one of my keypad’s illumination quit. The company sent out a replacement pad and all is well. It’s nice to have a company stand behind their product.

Easy and great support

Product was easy to install. It did fail within the first year but their support was absolutely amazing to deal with and sent a replacement out no questions asked. Will definitely buy this brand again.

The door sensor is critical, and this version has it.

Great little lock to replace my ubolt pro with fingerprint reader. The major advantage here is the door sensor. This means that it only relocks when the door is closed. The other lock (without sensor) was destroyed by being slammed shut after relocking automatically ; when the lock was already out and this shook the internal mechanism loose. The other still lasted 5 years despite this. The app is fine if basic.
