The new unveiled Lockly Zeno smart locks are its first ones to work with Apple Home and Home Key for use with iPhone and Apple Watch, the company said Thursday. Lockly Visage, with advanced facial recognition access technology, and Lockly Vision, with an integrated 2K video doorbell with intercom, are the two flagships.

“As technology progresses, so do customer expectations. We’ve made it our mission to always go above and beyond the cutting edge to set a new standard for the smart home industry,” said Frank Polidoro, Lockly CRO. “We are extremely excited to partner up with The Home Depot to bring our latest innovation to homeowners and the professional market.”

Lockly said the new Zeno Series features a sleek, upgraded design, resulting in locks 35% smaller than their predecessors. The four new smart locks boast several new features, including built-in Wi-Fi for stable and hubless connectivity, plus Apple Home app certification with Home Key access. That allows users to unlock their smart lock with an iPhone or Apple Watch.

So Lockly Visage features advanced facial biometric identification technology for hands-free entry. It uses binocular facial recognition and radar detection technologies to ensure personalized security.

The new locks and features include:

  • Lockly Vision Zeno Series integrates a 2K video doorbell with intercom and a next-generation 3D biometric fingerprint sensor for rapid recognition and enhanced security.
  • Lockly Secure Pro Zeno Series enhances convenience with a 3D biometric fingerprint sensor and Apple Home Keys access, along with programmable auto-locking and built-in Wi-Fi for seamless remote management.
  • Lockly PIN Genie Pro Zeno Series offers voice assistant control, Home Keys access and a hack-proof Patented PIN Genie Keypad. You can access the features through built-in Wi-Fi for comprehensive smart home integration.

Additional features found across the Lockly Zeno lineup include remote mobile app monitoring and control directly from a smartphone, programmable auto-locking for added security and offline access codes to create and share access codes without internet connection, Lockly said.

And the company added that current Lockly users will have an easy hardware transition to a Zeno Series smart lock with no additional door modifications needed. Users can also transfer settings to the new lock through the upgraded Lockly Home app that will be available soon.

Along with being Apple Home-certified, all Zeno locks are Google Home-certified and Amazon Alexa-certified.

Where to buy

You can find Lockly Visage Zeno Series at The Home Depot and Lockly.com for $349.00, along with the other locks. Those include Lockly Vision Zeno Series, at $429.00, Lockly Secure Pro Zeno Series, at $329.00, and Lockly PIN Genie Pro Zeno Series, at $229.
