Questions buyers ask What types of doors are suitable for the lock? The Aqara Smart Rim Lock U500 is designed for surface-mount installation on solid entrance doors 20–60 mm thick, with backset 40–45 mm and door gap 3–7 mm. Suitable for narrow-stile HDB main doors where mortise prep isn’t practical, and classic timber entrance doors. The dual-hook latches throw into a Strike Box mounted on the door frame — no mortise pocket required. NOT for gates — for outdoor metal gates, use the purpose-built Smart Gate Lock U500. Is the lock limited to a specific door opening direction? There are no restrictions. The lock supports all door opening directions, including left/right swing and inward/outward opening. Is this a Wi-Fi smart lock? No. The lock supports the Thread protocol, which is more stable than Wi-Fi and offers longer battery life. Which wireless connectivity protocols does the lock use? The lock uses Bluetooth 5.3, Thread (Matter 1.4), and NFC. Which certifications and tests has the lock passed? 1) CE certification 2) MFi certification 3) Matter certification 4) Aliro certification 5) Thread certification 6) IP65 certification 7) RCM certification, and more. What is the waterproof rating of the lock? The outer panel (keyboard) of the lock has an IP65 waterproof rating, and the inner panel has an IP54 waterproof rating. What are the operating temperature and humidity ranges for the lock? Operating temperature: Outer panel −35°C to 66°C, Inner panel −18°C to 50°C. Operating humidity: 0 to 93% RH, non-condensing. Temperatures or humidity outside this range may affect normal operation. What materials is the lock made of? The Rim Lock U500 has a solid metal construction with reinforced dual-hook latches and a genuine through-lock cylinder, designed for entrance-door durability. Which Aqara Thread-enabled Matter controllers are able to pair with the lock? As of December 2025, supported Aqara Thread-enabled Matter controllers include: Aqara Hub M3, Hub M100, Hub M200, Doorbell Camera Hub G410, and Camera Hub G5 Pro. Third-party Thread-enabled Matter controllers are also supported — see aqara.com/en/explore/everything-matter for the complete list. How many unlocking methods does the lock support? The lock supports eight unlock methods: 1) Fingerprint, 2) Password (regular, single-use, timed), 3) NFC (Apple Home Key), 4) Automation, 5) Voice control (Siri / Alexa), 6) Remote, 7) Bluetooth, 8) Mechanical key. Supported features may vary depending on the connected ecosystem. How many sets of passwords or other unlock methods does the lock support? In Aqara Home: 75 passwords total (6–10 digits, 2 per user), 25 NFC devices, 50 fingerprints, 100 total users. In Matter: 35 passwords (4–8 digits), 35 NFC devices, 20 total users. What should I do if the lock runs out of battery? When battery voltage drops below 5.1V, the lock alerts you in advance — replace the batteries as soon as possible. When the voltage drops below 4.9V, connect a power bank or any phone that supports USB-C-to-USB-C charging to the emergency USB-C port on the outer panel to temporarily power the lock. How long is the battery life of the lock? Up to 7 months on a single set of 4 AA batteries — measured in Aqara laboratories at 25°C, simulating 15 door openings and 15 automatic lock engagements per day. Battery performance decreases in low-temperature environments. Will the Rim Lock U500 fit my HDB main door? The Rim Lock U500 fits doors 20–60mm thick with a 40–45mm backset and 3–7mm door gap. Most HDB main doors fall in this range, and the surface-mount design works particularly well on narrow-stile doors where mortise prep isn’t practical. The Aqara Appointed Locksmith surveys your specific door before fitting — we recommend at least ~75mm of clear face for clean mounting. Installation requires three through-holes drilled (1×ø50mm 2×ø12mm), which we handle during install. Can I use the Rim Lock U500 on my HDB gate? No — for gates, the purpose-built Smart Gate Lock U500 is the right choice. The Gate Lock has fingerprint readers and mechanical key cylinders on BOTH sides, which is essential for gate use. The Rim Lock has access on the outer panel only — fine for entrance doors, but a poor fit for gates. Is installation included in the $699 price? Yes — the $699 price includes mandatory professional installation in Singapore. The Aqara Appointed Locksmith surveys your door, drills the through-holes, cuts the tailpiece to length, and configures the lock end-to-end. Typical install time is 60–90 minutes. What’s the Singapore warranty for the Rim Lock U500? 24-month onsite warranty in Singapore — warranty service comes to your door.
