Schlage’s UWB-enabled smart lock launches this month

It’s been more than a year since Schlage announced its first smart lock to support ultra wideband technology (UWB), but now it’s finally almost available to purchase. Starting June 29th, the Schlage Sense Pro deadbolt lock will be available for $399 in the US, allowing customers to unlock their doors by simply approaching them with a supported device, instead of using keys or biometric scans. The Sense Pro was first announced at CES 2025. It uses Schlage’s proprietary Converge technology for UWB, which requires a home key on a compatible iPhone or Apple Watch to calculate your speed, trajectory, and motion to unlock the door as you arrive. The Sense Pro is Schlage’s first lock to support Matter over Thread, allowing it to pair with a Thread-enabled Apple Home hub (including select Apple TV 4K and HomePod speaker models) for consistent, low-latency performance. It’s also compatible with Aliro — the smart lock standard that supports UWB hands-free unlocking and NFC tap-to-unlock. Schlage says the Sense Pro is expected to support Aliro digital keys in Samsung Wallet and Google Wallet “later this year,” which will also allow UWB-enabled Google and Samsung devices to use hands-free unlocking, or tap-to-unlock over NFC. The Sense Pro includes built-in Wi-Fi and can be managed remotely either through the Schlage Home app or the Apple Home app. …
