Ubiquiti UniFi Electric Lock (UA-Lock-Electric)

The UA-Lock-Electric is a high-performance electric strike lock designed by Ubiquiti to complement and integrate seamlessly with the UniFi Access ecosystem. As part of Ubiquiti’s comprehensive access control lineup, this electric lock provides secure, remote-controlled entry for doors, making it ideal for use in enterprise offices, commercial buildings, and high-security installations. Built to offer both security and convenience, the UA-Lock-Electric delivers reliable electronic locking functionality as part of a fully managed UniFi Access system.

This electric strike lock works by replacing a traditional fixed strike plate on a door frame with an electronically controlled mechanism that allows the door to remain locked or unlocked based on access credentials, schedules, or system commands. When connected to the UniFi Access Hub, the UA-Lock-Electric responds to access signals triggered by authorized entry methods—such as NFC cards, UniFi Access readers, or remotely via the UniFi Access Controller software—allowing for streamlined, contactless, and auditable entry management.

The UA-Lock-Electric is built using robust, industrial-grade components to ensure long-term performance and resilience in high-traffic environments. It supports fail-secure operation by default, which means it remains locked during power outages for maximum security. This configuration ensures the door cannot be opened without valid access, making it ideal for environments where secure access must be maintained at all times. Depending on system requirements, it can also be configured for fail-safe use where access is granted automatically in the event of power loss, suitable for emergency exit scenarios.

Designed to integrate effortlessly with the UniFi Access Hub, the lock is powered and managed through a centralized control system, enabling IT administrators to monitor access events, update user permissions, and generate audit logs—all through the intuitive UniFi Access interface. The electric strike lock can be mounted on various door types including wooden, metal, and aluminum-framed doors, offering flexibility across installation scenarios. Its compact form factor allows for clean, professional installation while minimizing visibility and preserving the aesthetics of the doorframe.

By utilizing the UA-Lock-Electric in a UniFi Access deployment, users benefit from a seamless and secure access control experience backed by Ubiquiti’s signature attention to integration, usability, and performance. Whether used in a single-door setup or scaled across a multi-entry facility, this electric lock is an essential component of a comprehensive access control strategy. It provides both physical security and digital control, empowering organizations to manage entry permissions with precision and confidence.
