First unveiled at CES 2025, the Schlage Sense Pro Smart Deadbolt finally has a launch date: June 29, 2026, arriving at $399 with Ultra Wideband hands-free unlocking via Apple Home Key, Matter over Thread smart home integration, Aliro certification for Android support, and WiFi remote access.

Schlage first unveiled the Sense Pro Smart Deadbolt at CES 2025, and now, over a year later, the company has shared details about its official launch. The premium smart lock will launch on June 29, 2026, and will retail for $399 in the US and $549 in Canada. At launch, it will be available online through Amazon, Lowe’s, The Home Depot and Schlage’s official website, and Canadian consumers can also find it in physical Home Depot stores.

The big hardware upgrade in the Sense Pro is the addition of Ultra Wideband (UWB) tech, branded as Schlage Converge. Unlike regular Bluetooth locks that require you to be nearby or open the app to unlock the door, UWB enables the deadbolt to detect a user’s approach by measuring speed and trajectory. The door will automatically unlock when the user approaches the handle with a compatible iPhone or Apple Watch with an Apple Home Key.

The newest Aliro connectivity standard offers support for Android and is intended to improve interoperability between different smart lock brands. Schlage expects the lock to receive its official Aliro certification later this year, which will enable hands-free UWB unlocking for compatible Samsung Wallet and Google Wallet users. Android devices without UWB hardware will still be able to use the lock via standard NFC tap-to-unlock.

Besides proximity tracking, Sense Pro has a wide range of modern connectivity options. It’s Schlage’s first smart lock to support Matter over Thread, meaning it can talk directly to local smart home hubs like the Apple TV 4K or HomePod. For configurations not featuring a dedicated hub, the lock includes WiFi for remote management via the Schlage Home app. The housing also features a USB-C jumpstart port on the outside for backup power from an external battery pack if the internal batteries run out.
