I’ve been using the U200 for a few months now without integrating it in any ecosystem. I’ve been loving the U200. Now, I have added it into my Home Assistant setup, but my main problem is that you can only lock or unlock it. You can’t just unlock the door without retracting the latch. Which is crucial for euro lock doors. I’ve already recommended the lock to 2 other friends, but I hope this feature gets added rather sooner than later.

Hi, We’ve received the same feedback in our testing group, and our team will definitely work on improving the experience. This month, we’ll first support the “Open door + Unlock + Lock” functions on HA (Matter). We’ll also update the Aqara Bluetooth unlocking experience soon.

That’s awesome!! Really looking forward to that!

Great news, I miss this feature really much. Is it also possible to implement data of who unlocked the door over matter so Home Assistant logs can show who unlocked the door?

I definitely agree. There needs to be a sensor in Home Assistant that shows who opened the door. This sensor is absolutely necessary for automations. A smart lock from a different brand that I used in Home Assistant before offered this sensor that showed us who opened the door through its own official integration. I hope this feature will be added soon :pray:

That looks great, however i can‘t see the open Door button when the door is unlocked in HA. I added the Lock (U200) via Matter over Thread.

I added the Lock first to Apple Home, then to HA

Hi, to enable the pull-spring function in HA , please use the Aqara app and enable the pull spring function. It will appear once activated.

I use the lock in Home Assistant via Matter over Thread. It works really well, and I’ve got the new latch functionality.
I would absolutely LOVE for the logs in Home Assistant to show who unblocked the door. Perhaps a sensor showing time and date of registered users from the Aqara app.

I have started today. Hard time connecting, but now it seems to be working. I would love to see the “Battery Charge Status” sensor working. So far, I have only got “unknown” and it would be good to disable the door opening while charging due to the wires.
