Is it possible that the locked door position engages the deadbolt in the same way as when I turn the key myself—so that it extends the deadbolt—but when unlocking, it does not also retract the latch, only the deadbolt itself? I only have a door handle on both the inside and outside, so a knob to push down. At night, I want the deadbolt engaged, and in the morning I want to unlock it, but the door should still stay shut.

@ferry Thank you for bringing up this interesting question about the U200 smart lock. Unfortunately, the reference information available doesn’t specifically address the U200 model or the exact functionality you’re asking about concerning the independent operation of the deadbolt and latch.
Typically, smart locks are designed to extend and retract both the deadbolt and latch for secure locking and unlocking. However, if you are looking for a feature where only the deadbolt retracts while the latch remains engaged, it may depend on the specific design and settings of the lock.
I suggest checking the user manual of the U200 smart lock or experimenting with the lock settings in the Aqara Home app. It might also be helpful to reach out to the community or Aqara support for more detailed guidance.
Please feel free to share more insights or any findings you come across, as they could benefit others with similar queries!
Thanks for your comment. We will add open door (unlatch) and unlock (only deadbolt) automation to aqara in the future to solve your second situation. In the first case you just need to unavalable the pull spring function on and it should work.
Hello, great question. I have a similar problem. I have the door set to automatically lock in the evening and I want to set the door to automatically unlock at the morning, but my type of door automatically “opens the door” after unlocking and retract the latch in the door, and after extending the latch, it stays open… I would just need to unlock the door and leave the latch in the extended position. When do you think we can expecting this function?
Hi, Thanks for your message. Could you take a photo for us to understand what type of door lock you are using? In most case you can just unavaliable the Pull Spring feature in Aqara Home app, and the lock will only Unbolt without Unlatch (Open door).
