Get a Nuki Keypad 2 NFC try.nuki.io/4rLIiQN
Use code eric15 for 15% off the products in the Nuki shop until 4.30.2026
The Nuki Keypad 2 NFC adds Apple Home Key tap-to-unlock support to Nuki's retrofit smart lock, bringing it on par with competitors like the Aqara U200, but in a sleeker, more compact design. I walk through setup with the Nuki app, Apple Home, and Wallet, plus real-world performance testing on my parents' front door through unpredictable Chicago spring weather. If you're looking for a Matter-compatible retrofit deadbolt with Apple Home Key, fingerprint, and passcode access without changing your existing keys, this could be your best option.

๐ *About this video*
See how the Aqara FP300 battery-powered millimeter wave presence sensor is transforming my Apple Home setup with ultra-reliable occupancy detection, smarter closet lighting, and automations that work even when youโre not moving. In this video I walk through how the FP300 pairs over Zigbee or Thread, works with Matter over Thread, uses its built-in light level sensor and advanced presence detection to prevent false triggers, and how it compares to older Aqara sensors and basic motion sensors in a modern smart home.
