ULTRALOQ is expanding its smart lock lineup with three new models designed to give homeowners more ways to unlock their doors without relying on traditional keys.
The new ULTRALOQ Bolt Mission, Bolt Pro, and Latch 5 Pro bring different approaches to digital home entry, ranging from hands-free unlocking powered by ultra-wideband technology to tap-to-unlock credentials stored in compatible smartphone wallets.
The new collection was announced last week, and is built around technologies including UWB, Aliro, Matter, biometric access, PIN codes, and mobile apps. All three models are also Matter Certified and work with major smart home platforms, according to ULTRALOQ.
Bolt Mission Uses UWB for Hands-Free Unlocking
The flagship model in the new collection is the ULTRALOQ Bolt Mission, which the company describes as its first smart lock using ultra-wideband (UWB) technology.
Unlike a conventional proximity-based smart lock, Bolt Mission is designed to determine whether an authorized user is actually approaching the door.
The system combines Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) discovery, UWB ranging, radar-based presence detection, and local decision-making to determine the user’s movement and proximity.
That allows the lock to distinguish between someone approaching the home from outside and normal movement occurring inside the house.
The goal is to make hands-free unlocking more intentional rather than simply unlocking whenever an authorized phone happens to be nearby.
No Need to Pull Out Your Phone
Bolt Mission is designed to work while the user’s phone remains inside a pocket or bag.
The Xthings Home app can operate in the background, allowing the lock to respond when an authorized user approaches.
ULTRALOQ says users do not need to open an app, enter a PIN, or install a separate hub to use the hands-free entry feature.
The built-in radar also helps the lock determine when to remain active and when to conserve power. ULTRALOQ says the intent-detection process takes place locally between the authorized phone and lock.
Bolt Pro Brings Digital Keys to the Front Door
The ULTRALOQ Bolt Pro takes a different approach.
Priced at a stated MSRP of $269.99, the Bolt Pro is a premium deadbolt that supports Aliro-certified digital keys, allowing compatible phones and devices to function as a key through supported mobile wallets.
Instead of launching an app, users can simply tap a compatible device to the lock.
The system is designed to provide a familiar contactless interaction similar to the tap-based experiences people already use for payments and other digital credentials.
Multiple Ways to Unlock Bolt Pro
Digital wallet access is only one of the Bolt Pro’s entry methods.
The lock also supports:
- Fingerprint recognition
- PIN codes
- App-based access
- Physical key backup
- Compatible digital wallet credentials
That flexibility means different members of a household can use different access methods.
For example, fingerprints can provide personalized access, while PIN codes can be issued to children, guests, cleaners, or service providers without handing out a physical key.
Latch 5 Pro Brings Digital Wallet Access to Lever Doors
The ULTRALOQ Latch 5 Pro extends the company’s wallet-based digital key concept beyond traditional deadbolts.
With an MSRP of $249.99, the Latch 5 Pro is designed for doors that use a lever-style lock, making it suitable for locations such as side entrances, home offices, garage-entry doors, rentals, and shared spaces.
Like the Bolt Pro, it supports digital wallet credentials and fingerprint access, while PIN codes can be provided to temporary users or visitors.
The Latch 5 Pro is also both Aliro and Matter Certified.
Aliro Turns the Phone Into a Digital Key
A major theme across the new lineup is the adoption of Aliro, an open mobile-access standard developed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance.
ULTRALOQ is using Aliro to bring digital access credentials closer to the experience consumers already have with mobile payments and digital car keys.
The Bolt Pro and Latch 5 Pro are the first multi-model ULTRALOQ lineup built around Aliro-certified smart locks, according to the company.
For compatible users, the idea is simple: instead of carrying another physical key, a supported smartphone or wearable can provide access through a digital credential.
Matter Compatibility Connects the Locks to Smart Homes
All three new ULTRALOQ locks are Matter Certified, giving them compatibility with major smart home ecosystems including Apple Home and Google Home.
The Bolt Pro and Latch 5 Pro also work with Samsung SmartThings.
That integration allows lock activity to become part of broader home automations. For example, an unlocked door could trigger connected lights or adjust a thermostat.
Samsung Wallet can also provide individual digital keys to members of a household, while SmartThings can help manage related automations.
Three Locks, Three Different Access Approaches
Although the three models share some underlying technology, ULTRALOQ is positioning them for different entry scenarios.
| Model | Main Access Feature | MSRP | Door Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bolt Mission | UWB hands-free approach-to-unlock | $299.99 | Deadbolt |
| Bolt Pro | Aliro digital wallet + fingerprint, PIN, app and key | $269.99 | Deadbolt |
| Latch 5 Pro | Aliro digital wallet + fingerprint and PIN | $249.99 | Lever |
The Bolt Mission focuses primarily on automatic, hands-free entry, while the Bolt Pro and Latch 5 Pro emphasize digital wallet credentials and multiple authentication methods.
ULTRALOQ Is Moving Beyond Traditional Smart Locking
The new collection reflects a broader shift in how smart locks can handle authentication.
Traditional smart locks often require users to open an app, enter a PIN, touch a fingerprint sensor, or carry a physical key. ULTRALOQ’s latest models offer additional options that attempt to make entry more passive or more familiar.
Bolt Mission is designed to recognize an authorized user’s approach, while the Bolt Pro and Latch 5 Pro allow compatible digital credentials to be used much like a contactless payment.
The result is a lineup that gives homeowners different ways to balance convenience, access control, and smart-home integration.
Availability and Pricing
ULTRALOQ says the new collection will be available online through The Home Depot beginning in October 2026.
The company also lists availability through its own ULTRALOQ website and Amazon, with The Home Depot joining the retail lineup in October.
Pricing is as follows:
- ULTRALOQ Bolt Mission: $299.99
- ULTRALOQ Bolt Pro: $269.99
- ULTRALOQ Latch 5 Pro: $249.99
Final Thoughts
ULTRALOQ’s latest smart lock collection is built around three different interpretations of keyless entry.
The Bolt Mission is the most hands-free option, using UWB, Bluetooth, radar, and local processing to determine when an authorized user is approaching the door. The Bolt Pro adds digital wallet access to a traditional deadbolt while retaining fingerprint, PIN, app, and physical-key options. The Latch 5 Pro brings similar wallet-based access to lever-style doors.
Matter certification across all three models also makes the collection more relevant for homeowners who want their locks to participate in a broader smart-home setup.
Rather than making every lock behave identically, ULTRALOQ is offering several access approaches, allowing homeowners to choose between hands-free unlocking, tap-to-unlock credentials, biometric authentication, PINs, and traditional keys.
