Schlage, a trusted leader in home security for over a century, has announced the launch of the Schlage Sense Pro Smart Deadbolt, its most advanced smart lock yet. Available from June 29, 2026, this deadbolt is the first to feature Schlage Converge technology, which leverages Ultra Wideband and the user's home key on a compatible iPhone or Apple Watch for seamless hands-free unlocking.
How Schlage Converge Technology Works
Schlage Converge uses Ultra Wideband to calculate speed, trajectory, and motion, unlocking the door precisely as the user arrives. This is more precise than geofencing or proximity-only technologies, offering intuitive entry that understands intent.
