The result is a flexible entry system built for different family members, everyday situations, and connected-home platforms. SwitchBot will showcase the Lock Ultra Max Vision Pro Combo at [IFA 2026](https://www.switch-bot.com/pages/events). Visitors can experience the system firsthand at booth #H1.2-146. **Faster, More Refined Retrofit Performance** At the heart of the combo, SwitchBot Lock Ultra Max upgrades an existing door lock from the inside without requiring users to replace the cylinder or modify the door. Its UltraDrive brushless motor reaches 160 rpm, delivering 3.2 times the motor rotation speed of SwitchBot Lock Ultra. Max Mode can complete unlocking in as little as 1.1 seconds, while more than 9 kg of turning force provides the power needed for everyday European lock mechanisms.^([1]) Users can choose Max Mode for a more immediate response or Quiet Mode for more discreet locking and unlocking during late-night arrivals, early mornings, and shared living situations. A high-precision magnetic encoder helps the lock track movement accurately, supporting smooth and consistent operation through frequent daily use. Performance is matched by a more premium industrial design. Lock Ultra Max combines an aluminum-alloy body with brushed electroplated stainless-steel detailing, while SwitchBot’s Fluted Light Design creates subtle highlights and shadows across the surface. Together with a closely fitted base ring, the design helps the retrofit lock feel more integrated with the door rather than like a separate device added afterward. **Up to 19 Ways to Unlock** SwitchBot Keypad Vision Pro expands the combo into a multi-user entry system with 3D facial recognition, contactless palm vein recognition, fingerprint recognition, passcodes, and NFC card access. Across the complete system, households can choose from up to 19 unlock methods, including the SwitchBot App, remote control, voice control, smartwatch access, widgets, Home Sharing, Auto-Unlock via geofencing, a physical key, and SwitchBot Remote. For hands-free entry, Keypad Vision Pro projects more than 30,000 infrared points to create a millimeter-level 3D facial map and complete recognition in under one second under laboratory conditions. The depth-based system is designed to resist spoofing attempts using photos or videos and can recognize users in low-light environments with built-in infrared illumination. Contactless palm vein recognition uses near-infrared sensing to read the unique vein pattern inside a user’s palm. This provides another biometric option for children, older family members, and users whose fingerprints may be difficult to read because of dry, worn, wet, or dirty fingers. Fingerprint, passcode, and NFC access remain available for family members and visitors who prefer more familiar entry methods. **Triple Power System for Dependable Everyday Access** Lock Ultra Max uses three layers of power to help keep the door accessible in unexpected low-battery situations. Its 4200 mAh rechargeable main battery provides up to 9 months of typical use, while an independent CR123A backup battery keeps the lock operational when the main battery is removed for charging or depleted, supporting approximately 500 locking or unlocking operations. Even when the battery is depleted, Micro-Power Unlock gathers residual energy for approximately 30 seconds before providing emergency unlocking assistance up to 5 times. The SwitchBot App also shows main and backup battery status and provides low-battery notifications, giving households time to recharge or replace the relevant power source. Keypad Vision Pro includes a 5000 mAh rechargeable battery designed to last up to 12 months on a single charge under typical use. Its approach-detection system activates biometric recognition when a user arrives, helping reduce unnecessary power consumption between entries. **Security, Privacy, and Awareness at the Door** The combo is designed with multiple layers of protection across communication, biometric storage, locking, alerts, status awareness, and power. AES-128 encryption helps protect access communication, while facial, palm vein, and fingerprint data is processed and stored locally on the device rather than made available through third-party smart-home platforms. Auto-Lock helps secure the door after entry or exit, and users can review lock status, door status, battery levels, notifications, and event history in the SwitchBot App. Lock Ultra Max also provides on-device voice alerts and in-app text notifications for important conditions, including a low main battery, backup-battery use, a door left open or unlocked, and 13 categories of weather warnings such as rain, snow, thunderstorms, and fog. **Made for European Doors and Connected Homes** SwitchBot Lock Ultra Max is designed to support 99% of European locks, including common EU profile cylinders, knob cylinders, Swiss round cylinders, and UK oval cylinders, with additional adapters available for less common installations. The lock mounts inside the door while retaining the existing cylinder, and Keypad Vision Pro can be installed outside using adhesive or screws, allowing many households to complete the upgrade without drilling or permanent changes. SwitchBot Hub Mini Matter Enabled is included in the combo, adding remote control through the SwitchBot App without requiring a separate hub purchase. It also brings the lock into compatible smart-home ecosystems through Matter over Bridge, including Apple Home and Home Assistant, so users can connect entry routines with the wider home rather than building a separate system around the lock. **Max Service for More Confident Ownership** For added peace of mind after purchase, customers who purchase the SwitchBot Lock Ultra Max Vision Pro Combo during the launch period will receive Max Service for Lock Ultra Max at no additional cost. Combining an additional one-year warranty with fast return and exchange support, Max Service is designed to make ownership simpler and more reassuring from day one.^([2]) **Pricing and Availability** Pre-orders for SwitchBot Lock Ultra Max Vision Pro Combo begin on September 03, 2026 through SwitchBot’s official [EU](https://eu.switch-bot.com/products/switchbot-lock-ultra-max-vision-pro-combo) and [UK](https://uk.switch-bot.com/products/switchbot-lock-ultra-max-vision-pro-combo) websites (activated on September 3), with an MSRP of EUR 339.99 / GBP 339.99.
