Available in Matte Black or Satin Nickel, the Secure Pro Zeno Fingerprint is a complete lock set that comes with interior and exterior escutcheons, deadbolt and strike assemblies, a mounting plate and mounting hardware, installation and setup guides, a drilling template, four AA batteries that will supply up to five months of power, and two keys. It also comes with a door sensor and a touch screen cover that can be used to protect the display from damage due to prolonged sunlight exposure. The lock can be installed on doors with a thickness of 1 ⅜ to 3 ⅛ inches, a 2 ⅜ or 2 ¾ backset, and a 2 ⅛ inch bore hole.
The exterior escutcheon looks similar to the Visage Zeno Series Facial Recognition Deadbolt, but it lacks the camera used for facial recognition. It has an IP65 weather-resistance rating and measures 5.3 by 2.5 by 1.1 inches (HWD). Like the Visage, the Secure Pro’s touch screen uses Lockly’s PIN Genie technology to constantly change the order of the numbers on the four-button keypad, making it difficult for someone to steal your code by peeking over your shoulder or by examining fingerprint smudges.
The display features a rectangular Apple Home Key sensor that lets you unlock the door with an Apple Watch or iPhone, and a round icon that wakes up the screen. On-screen indicators let you know whether the door is locked or unlocked, the Wi-Fi status, and when the battery is low. A Safe mode indicator flashes when the keypad has been temporarily disabled after three unsuccessful PIN code attempts.
Below the keypad is a round keyway with a fingerprint scanner that will accommodate up to 99 unique fingerprints. Along the bottom edge of the escutcheon is a USB-C port protected by a rubber cover. This port can be used to connect to a backup power source if the batteries die. Inside, it has 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios, and around back are data and Wi-Fi cables that connect to the interior escutcheon.
The interior escutcheon measures 5.1 by 3.0 by 2.1 inches (HWD) and has a thumbturn knob for manually locking and unlocking the door. The battery compartment and a programming button reside behind a removable cover. On the back, it has a data cable that connects to the exterior escutcheon and a door sensor cable.

The Secure Pro features include Auto Lock, a Welcome mode that temporarily disables Auto Lock if you’re expecting visitors, eBadges that provide temporary access via the Lockly app, and locking/unlocking via Apple Home Key, Alexa, Siri, and Google voice commands. It works with Apple Home, Alexa, and Google Home apps, and integrates with other smart home devices using Alexa routines and HomeKit scenes, but it doesn’t support IFTTT applets. If you can live without HomeKit support, the Desloc D110 Plus ($159.99) offers many of the same features as the Lockly for a lot less money.

The Secure Pro appears in a panel on the My Property screen of the newly redesigned Lockly mobile app (available for iOS and Android devices), which is also used to control the Visage. Tap the panel to open a Control screen with a circle that shows whether the door is locked or unlocked. A blue circle indicates locked, and a red circle indicates unlocked. Below the circle is a panel that displays the battery level and the current connectivity status (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth). There’s also a panel that tells you the last time the lock status was updated.

There are four buttons at the bottom of the screen. The Control button takes you back to that screen from wherever you are in the app, and the Log button opens a history of lock activities. Tap the Access button to add users, register fingerprints, and assign full-time, one-time, temporary, and time-scheduled access rights. The Settings button takes you to a screen where you can connect to Wi-Fi, edit your Admin code, add door sensors, and configure notifications and power settings. Here you can also configure Auto Lock and Welcome mode settings, enable Rain mode (which disables the keypad to avoid false triggering) and Random mode (which changes the numbers on the keypad with every button press), and generate a QR code for temporary access. Use the Sound and Tone settings to enable or disable keypad touch and fingerprint scan sounds.
