Nuki Home Solutions is a smart lock maker based in Graz, Austria. Its retrofit Smart Locks fit over an existing door lock, and the range also includes the Opener for door intercoms and the Keypad and Fob accessories.
Nuki locks talk to a phone over Bluetooth. For remote access and voice control there are two routes: Matter over Thread on the newer locks (Go, Pro, Ultra and the 4th generation), which works with a Thread border router such as an Apple TV, Nest Hub, Echo or SmartThings hub, or Nuki's own cloud service, Nuki Web, reached through a Nuki Bridge or a built-in Wi-Fi module on models that have one.
That suits anyone who wants a lock that appears natively in Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings or Home Assistant, and people who like to script their own integrations: Nuki publishes a cloud Web API, a local Bridge HTTP API and MQTT support. Older locks without Matter rely on the Bridge or on Nuki Web, so the cloud and a separate accessory become part of the setup.

Published by Nuki Home Solutions; the iPhone listing mentions Apple Watch and the Android listing mentions Wear OS. Nuki Web, the company's cloud service, is a separate web-based service rather than an app, and we found no other official Nuki app listings.

Nuki's Matter guide says the phone must be within Bluetooth range of the lock to activate Matter, and the Web API page describes a Nuki Bridge that forwards commands to the lock over Bluetooth.
Nuki's Matter guide refers to remote access that works without a Bridge or built-in Wi-Fi module, and says Nuki does not plan to support Matter over Wi-Fi. A Nuki Bridge or built-in Wi-Fi connects the lock to Nuki Web. We did not find a Nuki page listing which models have built-in Wi-Fi.
Matter over Thread is supported on Smart Lock Ultra, Pro, Go and the 4th generation. A Thread border router is needed, such as an Apple TV 4K, HomePod, Nest Hub, certain Echo or eero devices or a SmartThings hub.
Nuki says Matter over Thread works with Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings. Matter is switched on in the Nuki app, and the connection cannot be undone once deleted, so it must be set up again from scratch. Home Assistant lists Smart Lock Go, Pro (5th generation) and Ultra as its supported Nuki Matter models.
Supported through Matter over Thread, and listed by Nuki under its Nuki Web integrations. Nuki's page describes voice control, status checks and routines. Not all Nest devices act as Thread border routers, and Nuki notes only Nest Wifi Pro supports remote access over Thread.
Supported through Matter over Thread and through Nuki Web. Nuki's page says the lock must be connected via Nuki Web for the Alexa route, and mentions voice commands and Alexa routines.
Smart Lock 2nd and 3rd generation connect to Apple Home using HomeKit over Bluetooth. Smart Lock Ultra, Pro, Go and the 4th generation use Matter over Thread. Nuki's page mentions Siri, Apple Watch and location or time based automations.
Nuki lists SmartThings under Matter over Thread, and its Matter guide names SmartThings Hub v3, SmartThings Station and Aeotec hubs as Thread-capable. A separate community Edge driver exists for locks used with a Nuki Bridge, written by an individual developer.
Nuki published an IFTTT integration. It needs Nuki Web activated in the Nuki app and the lock connected through a Nuki Bridge. The page gives example applets rather than a full trigger and action list, and carries no date.
Two routes. The Nuki Matter integration works locally over Thread, and Nuki is a Works with Home Assistant partner for Smart Lock Go, Pro and Ultra. The older Nuki Bridge integration, which Home Assistant contributors maintain rather than Nuki, talks to a Nuki Bridge over its local HTTP API (Local Polling). Nuki links to Home Assistant from its own integrations page.
Athom publishes an app marked Official on homey.app. Its page lists Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Homey Self-Hosted Server, and states that every listed Nuki device (Opener, Smart Lock, Smart Lock Go, Pro 4th and 5th generation, Ultra and the MQTT Smart Lock) requires a Homey Bridge. Flows cover lock and unlock, and Keypad PIN management for the Smart Lock.
The Nuki binding is in openHAB's own add-on list and covers Smart Lock (1.0, 2.0, 3.0 Pro and Smart Door) and Opener. It needs a Nuki Bridge with its HTTP API enabled and talks to it over the local network. Nuki does not maintain it as far as the page shows.
No dedicated Nuki node was found, but the search was combined with other platforms and was not exhaustive. The local Bridge HTTP API and MQTT support could in principle be used from Node-RED, which we have not confirmed.
A beta Hubitat app by an individual developer was posted on Nuki's developer forum in June 2020 for the Nuki Bridge, Smart Lock 2.0 and Opener. It is not an official Nuki release, and we could not confirm that it is still maintained.
No Domoticz plugin found when we searched for Nuki with several platform names together, which was not an exhaustive check.

A paid Control4 driver by Domaudeo, sold through DriverCentral, supports Smart Lock Go, Pro and Ultra with built-in Wi-Fi via Nuki's cloud API and polls the status. The page does not say that Nuki makes or endorses it.
A cloud API for locks with Remote Access, or locks reached through a Nuki Bridge. It uses a Nuki Web authentication key, offers webhooks and a Swagger interface at api.nuki.io, and does not cover local control or offline devices.
A local API served by the Nuki Bridge. The Bridge is found through a discovery call to api.nuki.io, and an /auth call plus a button press on the Bridge enables the API and returns a token. Calls then go to the Bridge's local address without internet access, though the Bridge still reports lock status to Nuki's servers.
Checked 11 November 2026 against the brand's own pages, app store listings and each project's own page. “Not found” means we searched and found nothing, not that it is impossible. Compatibility changes often. Spot an error? Tell us and we will fix it.
