Nuki says its Smart Module is now available in Europe for €359, bringing smart access to compatible electromechanical door locks with concealed installation and permanent power. The company also announced a white Keypad 2 NFC for €179 and a theft-detection upgrade for existing black keypads, priced at €4.90 for the replacement cover.
Austrian smart-lock maker Nuki has announced the European availability of its Smart Module, a concealed system for compatible electromechanical door locks, alongside a white version of its Keypad 2 NFC and a theft-detection feature. Nuki lists the module at €359; the keypad and theft-detection upgrades are priced separately.
The Smart Module connects directly to compatible motorised locking mechanisms and automatic door openers, rather than attaching visibly to the inside of a door like Nuki’s retrofit Smart Lock products. It can be built into a door during manufacturing or installed in an existing property by an authorised Nuki Pro Partner. For retrofit work, the hardware can be housed in a standard flush-mounted electrical box, according to the company.
Nuki says the module uses a permanent power supply, so it does not need batteries or regular recharging. It includes technology from the company’s fifth-generation smart locks and supports Matter, which Nuki says enables integration with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Samsung SmartThings. Features include remote control, Auto Unlock and digital access permissions through the Nuki app. Compatible accessories can add PIN, fingerprint and NFC unlocking.
The Keypad 2 NFC White Edition retains the black model’s NFC Tap to Unlock, fingerprint recognition and PIN entry. It is priced at €179 and will initially be sold in limited quantities to Nuki Club members, with wider availability planned. For owners of the black keypad, Nuki is offering a replacement battery compartment cover with a theft-detection sensor for €4.90; the company says replacing the whole keypad is not required.
Concealed Access for Compatible Doors
The Smart Module gives homeowners and door manufacturers another way to add connected access without placing a visible retrofit lock on the door’s interior. Because it is designed to work with electromechanical locking systems and can be included during door production, it may suit installations where a conventional add-on device is not wanted or is not compatible.
Its Matter support also links the product to major smart-home platforms, including Apple Home. That may matter to users seeking app-based access and smart-home integration, though the module’s compatibility depends on the door’s locking hardware and installation. Nuki’s announcement does not establish that it works with every motorised lock or door opener.
The keypad update takes a different approach: it offers a new finish and a relatively low-cost sensor upgrade for existing black Keypad 2 NFC owners. Nuki says theft detection can notify users when the keypad is moved or removed and restrict keypad use after detection. These are manufacturer-described functions; the announcement does not provide independent test results or details about performance in every situation.

From Retrofit Locks to Door Integration
Nuki’s established Smart Lock products attach to the interior of an existing door. The Smart Module instead connects to the door’s electromechanical locking mechanism and can be concealed within the installation. Nuki first announced the module in March 2026; the latest announcement concerns its availability and related keypad products.
The company says it has partnered with REHAU Window Solutions to support manufacturers incorporating the module into door production. The standalone module is available through the Nuki online store and authorised Pro Partners, as well as through participating door manufacturers. Nuki lists a recommended retail price of €359, while the white keypad is €179. The €4.90 sensor cover is intended for existing black Keypad 2 NFC units.
Nuki says the white keypad will start with a limited release for Nuki Club members before regular online-store availability. The prices cited are manufacturer-recommended retail prices in euros. The announcement does not specify availability outside Europe.
“The Smart Module uses a permanent power supply and does not require batteries or periodic recharging.”

Compatibility and Market Reach
Nuki has not named all compatible lock mechanisms, door models or automatic openers, so buyers will need to confirm compatibility with the company or an authorised installer. The announcement also does not state whether installation requires additional hardware or charges beyond the module’s listed €359 price.
Details about availability outside Europe have not been provided. Nuki has not given a specific date for when the white keypad will move from its limited Nuki Club release to wider sales. The company also has not supplied independent performance data for the theft-detection feature or described its response to every possible removal or tampering scenario.
European Sales and Wider Release
The Smart Module is available now in Europe through participating door manufacturers, authorised Nuki Pro Partners and Nuki’s online store, according to the company. Buyers considering a retrofit installation can contact a Nuki Pro Partner to check whether their existing electromechanical lock is supported and what work is needed.
Nuki says the white Keypad 2 NFC will be offered first in limited quantities to Nuki Club members, followed by wider availability through its regular online store. Owners of the black keypad can purchase the sensor-equipped replacement cover. The company has not announced dates for broader keypad availability or sales in markets beyond Europe.
