Vault Lumina Smart Lock for Frameless Glass Sliding Doors
At A Glance
Not Available
Not Available
The Vault Lumina (Vault_Lumina) is a smart lock designed specifically for frameless glass doors. It is a compact unit with an inbuilt hook bolt that clamps directly onto the edge of the glass rather than needing a mortice cut, suiting 10mm to 12mm glass on either a single glass door or a pair of double glass doors. It suits residential and office entries where a clean glass-door look matters.
The Lumina opens by fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth from the Vault Smart Locks app, and a backup mechanical key, with remote access available when it is paired with the optional Vault G5 Gateway. Its slim body complements frameless glass entryways while still providing properly managed digital access.
Because it clamps onto the glass edge rather than sitting in a machined mortice, there is no traditional backset to work around and the installation is straightforward - there is no drilling into the glass at all. Confirming your door configuration (single or double) before ordering is still worthwhile so the correct strike is supplied. For framed narrow-stile sliding doors, see the Vault Eclipse or the Vault Sliding Hook Mortice.
Usually ships in 24 hours from our warehouse (excludes weekends and Queensland public holidays).
Key Features
- Purpose-built for frameless glass doors - the only Vault model that is.
- Inbuilt hook bolt mechanism for glass-door locking, rather than a standard mortice body.
- Clamps directly onto the glass edge - no mortice cutting and no drilling into the glass.
- Suits either a single glass door or a pair of double glass doors, with the strike specified to match.
- Five credentials at the door: fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth app unlock and a backup mechanical key.
- Optional remote access via the Vault G5 Gateway.
- Compact 72mm x 176mm x 20mm body for modern glass entryways.
- IP55-rated external module.
- Powered by four AA batteries (not included), with two RFID fobs supplied.
Frameless Glass Door Compatibility
The Lumina is designed for 10mm to 12mm frameless glass (minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm) and uses an inbuilt hook bolt rather than a standard door mortice. Installation is straightforward: the lock clips and clamps directly onto the edge of the glass, so there is no traditional backset to measure and no drilling into the glass itself.
It suits either a single glass door or a pair of double glass doors. On a double-door installation the strike mounts to the opposing glass panel; on a single door, a small strike plate is fitted to the frame and drilled so the hook bolt can engage. That is the one decision worth settling before the order goes in.
Glass door framing varies from job to job, so confirming your door configuration (single or double) and the glass thickness before ordering is the quickest way to get a clean fit and the right strike in the carton. On the Gold Coast we also offer a measure and install service that settles all of it before anything is ordered.
The external (outside) module is IP55 weather rated - protected against limited dust ingress and low-pressure water jets - which supports everyday exposed use where the installation is appropriate. The internal module is for interior use only.

- Inbuilt hook bolt mechanism
- Backup mechanical key
- RFID fobs x2
- Installation template
- Fixing hardware
- User manual
Four AA batteries are required and are not supplied, and the optional Vault G5 Gateway is a separate purchase. Exact carton contents may vary between production runs - confirm on delivery.
Battery, Power and Backup Access
The Lumina is powered by four AA batteries, not included. Use new alkaline cells, avoid mixing new and old, and replace them promptly when the lock signals a low battery. AA cells are the largest format in the Vault slimline family, which works in the Lumina's favour on runtime.
The Lumina includes a backup mechanical key for entry if the batteries are depleted or electronic access is unavailable. There is no USB rescue port on this model, so the key is the whole fallback. Keep a spare off-site rather than inside the door it opens - see where the keyhole is, storing the override key and what to do when the battery dies.
Suitable Uses
- Frameless glass entry and sliding doors in homes and offices.
- Retail, studio and reception glass doors where a clean look is part of the brief.
- Installations where an inbuilt hook bolt suits the existing glass-door hardware.
- Spaces that want fingerprint, PIN, fob and app access on a glass door without machining anything.
- Covered entries where the external module gets some weather protection - the IP55 rating is the lowest in the slimline family.
The Lumina needs a glass edge to clamp onto - it cannot be fitted to a framed aluminium or timber door, where the Vault Eclipse is the right answer. It is also not certified to AS 1905.1 and must not be fitted to a fire door; see Chapter 05.

Vault Sliding and Glass-Door Range
The Lumina is the glass-door specialist. For framed sliders, the models below are the right starting points. The whole line-up is on the Vault range overview.
Dimensions
Confirm your door configuration (single or double glass door) before ordering so the correct strike can be specified. The Lumina manual publishes no dimension drawing and no specification table, so these figures come from the product listing rather than the document.
Full Specifications
The Lumina user manual is the shortest in the Vault set and carries no specification table, no inclusions list and no dimension drawing - it documents the five-step adhesive-board installation and the app operation only. Every figure above therefore comes from the product listing rather than the document, and we have left out any row we cannot source.
Wi-Fi Remote Access (Optional)
The Lumina is controlled over Bluetooth from the Vault Smart Locks app, available on iOS ![]()
and Android. Bluetooth control works when you are near the door and needs no internet connection. Vault runs its own app platform - it is not a TTLock product.
Adding the optional Vault G5 Gateway bridges the lock to your home or office Wi-Fi so you can unlock remotely, issue and revoke passcodes from anywhere, and view the unlock history. For how a gateway works and whether you need one, see what a gateway does and the note on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and band steering, or the blog on whether you need a gateway at all. The wider range sits in modules and Wi-Fi gateways.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes - it is purpose-built for it, and it is the only Vault model that is. It uses an inbuilt hook bolt that clamps onto the glass edge rather than a standard door mortice, which is why it needs no machining and no drilling into the glass.
10mm to 12mm - minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm. Most frameless glass doors in Australian homes and shopfronts fall inside that range, but confirm yours before ordering because there is no adjustment outside it.
Either. On a single glass door a small strike plate is fitted to the frame and drilled so the hook bolt can engage. On a pair of double glass doors the strike mounts to the opposing glass panel instead. Tell us your configuration when ordering so the correct strike is supplied.
No. It supports fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth app control and a backup mechanical key. For 3D face recognition on a sliding door, see the Vault Alpha - though note the Alpha suits framed doors, not frameless glass.
Yes, but only with the optional Vault G5 Gateway. Without it the lock works locally over Bluetooth and onboard credentials, which is enough for most installations - see what a gateway does.
Additional Information
The Lumina is one of the few smart locks in any brand positioned specifically for frameless glass rather than aluminium or timber joinery, which is why its slim profile keeps a glass installation looking clean instead of bolted-on.
Because the Lumina uses an inbuilt hook bolt, it should not be treated like a standard hinged-door mortice smart lock - there is no lock body to match, no backset to measure and no mortice to machine. For hinged-door options see the mortice range in Chapter 01 and the mortice locks for smart locks category.
Unlike a mortice smart lock, the Lumina needs no lock body machined into the door. The manual's procedure is five steps: align the door seam with the stencil centre line on clean dry glass, apply the adhesive board, press out the air bubbles, clip the lock onto the board and fix it with screws. The one decision to get right beforehand is the door configuration, because that decides the strike.
The Lumina manual is the shortest document in the Vault set - it carries the installation procedure and the app operation, but no specifications, no inclusions list and no dimension drawing. Every figure on this page therefore comes from the product listing rather than the document. Where a figure is not available from either, we have left the row out rather than estimate it.
Vault charges a refundable assessment holding fee on warranty returns - $200 in metropolitan areas and $250 elsewhere - refunded when the claim is assessed as a genuine warranty fault. We manage the claim with Vault on your behalf.

Vault Lumina - FAQ, Setup and Owner's Guide
The questions below go further than the summary on the main page. For general smart lock questions see the Smart Lock FAQ, and for the wider decision the Ultimate Smart Lock Buyer's Guide.
Glass, Fit and Installation
From 10mm to 12mm - minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm. Measure your glass thickness before ordering. Most frameless glass doors in Australian homes and shopfronts fall in that range, but there is no packer or adjustment that takes the lock outside it.
It clips and clamps directly onto the edge of the glass. There is no drilling into the glass itself and no mortice to machine, which is what makes this a far simpler installation than a conventional smart lock. The manual's sequence is five steps: align the door seam with the stencil centre line on clean dry glass, apply the adhesive board, press out the air bubbles, clip the lock onto the board and fix it with screws.
Both. On a single glass door a small strike plate is fitted to the frame and drilled so the hook bolt can engage. On a pair of double glass doors the strike mounts to the opposing glass panel instead. Let us know your configuration when ordering so the correct strike is supplied - this is the one thing that cannot be sorted out after the carton arrives.
No. Because the Lumina clamps onto the glass edge rather than sitting inside a machined mortice, there is no traditional backset to work around - which removes the single most common ordering mistake on a smart lock. The figure to check instead is the 30mm recommended clearance around the lock body.
No. The Lumina needs a bare glass edge to clamp onto. A framed aluminium slider with a glass panel is a different job - the Vault Eclipse with a sliding hook mortice is the right answer there.
On the Gold Coast, yes. Our measure and install service confirms glass thickness, door configuration and strike placement before anything is ordered, which on a glass door is worth more than it sounds - a mis-specified strike on a glass panel is not something you can correct with a drill.
No, and the manual does not claim it is. The board positions and bonds the lock, and screws then fix it. Clean, dry glass is what decides whether the bond holds - it is the step most worth taking slowly.
Access and Credentials
Fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth unlock from the Vault Smart Locks app, and a backup mechanical key. See the access methods comparison for how these credential types stack up against each other.
Yes. The app issues permanent, timed and one-time PIN codes, so a cleaner can hold a code that only works on their scheduled day and a one-off visitor gets a code that expires after a single use. On a retail or studio door that is usually more useful than the remote unlocking is.
Two RFID fobs are supplied. More can be enrolled through the app if you need them.
Not in the Vault range. The Vault Alpha carries 3D face recognition on a sliding door, but it is a framed-door lock and will not fit frameless glass.
Yes - the unlock record reads in the app over Bluetooth, and remotely once a G5 gateway is paired. On an office or retail glass door that record is often the main reason to fit a smart lock at all.
App and Remote Access
No. The Vault Smart Locks app controls the lock over Bluetooth when you are near the door, and fingerprints, PIN codes and RFID credentials all work at the lock itself with no internet at all.
It bridges the lock to your Wi-Fi so you can unlock remotely, issue and revoke passcodes from anywhere, and view the unlock history. For whether you need one at all, see what a gateway does and the blog on whether you need a gateway.
Smart lock gateways generally rely on the 2.4GHz band, and combined 2.4 and 5GHz routers can cause pairing hiccups. The G5 is dual-band, which is why we recommend it - see our note on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and band steering before setting up.
No. Vault runs its own Vault Smart Locks app platform - it is not TTLock, does not use the TTLock app and does not carry the TTLock feature set. Our app platforms chapter compares the ecosystems.
Power and Weather
Four AA batteries, not included. Use new alkaline cells, avoid mixing new and old, and replace them promptly when the lock signals low battery. AA is the largest cell format in the Vault slimline family, which is a point in the Lumina's favour on runtime.
The included backup mechanical key gets you in, and on this model it is the only fallback - there is no USB rescue port. Keep a spare key off-site rather than inside the door it opens; see what to do when the battery dies and where the keyhole is.
The external module is IP55 - protected against limited dust and low-pressure water jets - which supports everyday exposed use where the installation is appropriate. It is the lowest IP figure in the Vault slimline family, so a covered entry is the friendlier position. See the IP ratings guide.
An IP rating measures ingress, not corrosion. For a beachfront position a covered entry, a periodic fresh-water rinse of the external module and realistic expectations are the practical answer - see our notes on coastal environments.
Keep the fingerprint reader clean with a dry cloth, and check the hook bolt still engages the strike cleanly a few times a year. Glass doors move with their hardware over time, and a bolt that is starting to catch is the earliest warning that something needs adjusting.
Warranty and Alternatives
Twelve months from purchase on the standard range, with 24 months on select Signature Range models where the listing or packaging says so. Batteries, consumables, cosmetic finishes, misuse and incorrect or unlicensed installation are excluded. Vault charges a refundable $200 metropolitan or $250 regional assessment holding fee on a warranty return, refunded when the fault is assessed as genuine. We manage the claim with Vault on your behalf - see Returns and Warranty. This operates alongside your Australian Consumer Law rights.
Probably not. The Lumina is purpose-built for frameless glass and needs a bare glass edge. For framed narrow-stile sliding doors look at the Vault Eclipse or the Vault Sliding Hook Mortice, and see the full Vault range guide.
No. Vault smart locks are not certified to AS 1905.1, and in any case a frameless glass door is not a fire door. See Chapter 05 for where fire doors are required in Queensland and which locks are compliant.
The Lumina is confirmed for 10mm to 12mm glass on a single or double glass door, but glass-door framing varies from job to job, so fitment should always be checked before ordering. See the Vault brand profile for where the range sits in the wider market.

Important Notes
Where a Vault product carries an Ingress Protection (IP) rating, that rating is stated on the individual product listing, packaging or technical documentation. Unless stated otherwise in writing, the IP rating applies only to the external-facing side of the lock - not to the internal assembly, handle, battery compartment, electronics, cables or connectors. The internal side must be installed in a dry, sheltered position. An IP rating describes water resistance, not waterproofing: the lock must not be submerged, pressure washed, or exposed beyond its stated rating, and all seals, gaskets and covers must be correctly fitted and undamaged.
Vault's manufacturer policy applies a warranty assessment holding fee, which is refundable if the fault is found to be covered under warranty. If a product is assessed as outside warranty or damaged by an excluded cause, a discounted replacement may be offered. We will confirm any applicable fees and options with you before any assessment proceeds.
This warranty is provided in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure, and to have goods repaired or replaced if they fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
