Vault Lumina Smart Lock for Frameless Glass Sliding Doors
At A Glance
Not Available
The Vault Lumina is a smart lock designed specifically for frameless glass doors. It is a compact lock with an inbuilt hook bolt mechanism that clips/clamps directly onto the edge of the glass rather than requiring a mortice cut, suiting 10-12mm glass on either a single glass door or a pair of double glass doors. It suits residential and office entries where clean glass-door aesthetics matter.
Lumina opens by fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth from the Vault Smart Locks app, and a backup mechanical key, with optional remote access when paired with the Vault G5 Gateway. Its slim body complements frameless glass entryways while still providing managed digital access.
Because Lumina clamps onto the glass edge rather than fitting into a machined mortice, there is no traditional backset to work around and installation is straightforward. Confirming your door configuration (single or double glass door) 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.
Key Features
- Smart lock designed specifically for frameless glass doors.
- Inbuilt hook bolt mechanism for glass-door locking (not a standard mortice).
- Clips/clamps directly onto the glass edge for straightforward installation - no mortice cutting, no drilling into the glass.
- Suits either a single glass door or a pair of double glass doors.
- Access by fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth app unlock, and backup mechanical key.
- Optional remote access via the Vault G5 Gateway.
- Compact, slim body for modern glass entryways.
- IP55 weather-rated external module.
- Powered by 4 x AA batteries (not included).
Lumina is designed for 10-12mm frameless glass (minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm) and uses an inbuilt hook bolt rather than a standard door mortice. Installation is straightforward: the lock clips/clamps directly onto the edge of the glass, so there is no traditional backset to measure and no drilling into the glass itself. Lumina 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 to allow the hook bolt to engage.
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. See the IP ratings guide, and for salt-air positions our notes on coastal environments.

Battery, Power and Backup Access
Lumina is powered by 4 x AA batteries (not included). Use new alkaline batteries and avoid mixing new and old cells. Replace the batteries promptly when the lock signals a low battery.
Lumina includes a backup mechanical key for entry if the batteries are depleted or electronic access is unavailable. Keep a spare key off-site rather than inside the door it opens. See where the keyhole is 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 wanting a clean look
- Installations where an inbuilt hook bolt suits the glass-door hardware
- Spaces wanting fingerprint, PIN, card and app access on a glass door
- Covered entries where the external module gets weather protection

Wi-Fi Remote Access (Optional)
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.
Adding the optional Vault G5 Gateway bridges the lock to your home Wi-Fi so you can unlock remotely, issue and revoke passcodes from anywhere, and view 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Lumina is purpose-built for frameless glass doors and uses an inbuilt hook bolt that clips onto the glass edge, rather than a standard door mortice.
10-12mm glass (minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm). Confirm your door's glass thickness falls within this range before ordering.
No. Lumina supports fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card, Bluetooth app control and a backup mechanical key. For 3D face recognition on a sliding door, see the Vault Alpha.
Yes, but only when paired with the optional Vault G5 Gateway. Without the gateway it works locally over Bluetooth and onboard credentials.
Either. Lumina suits a single glass door, where a small strike plate is fitted to the frame and drilled for the hook bolt, or a pair of double glass doors, where the strike mounts to the opposing glass panel instead. Let us know your configuration when ordering so the correct strike is supplied.
Additional Information
Lumina is one of the few Vault models specifically positioned for frameless glass doors rather than aluminium or timber joinery, so its slim profile helps maintain a clean visual look on glass installations.
Because Lumina uses an inbuilt hook bolt, it should not be treated like a standard hinged-door mortice smart lock. For hinged-door options, see the mortice-lock range in Chapter 01 - mortice locks.
Unlike a mortice smart lock, Lumina does not need a lock body machined into the door. It clips/clamps directly onto the edge of 10-12mm glass, so there is no backset to set out. The main decision to get right beforehand is door configuration: a double-door strike mounts to the opposing glass panel, while a single-door strike is a small frame-mounted plate drilled for the hook bolt.
Lumina is confirmed for 10-12mm glass on a single or double glass door, but glass-door framing still varies from job to job, so fitment should always be checked before ordering. On the Gold Coast we offer a measure and install service. See the full Vault range guide and the Vault brand profile.
Vault Smart Locks products purchased in Australia are covered against defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential or commercial use for:

Frequently Asked Questions - Vault Lumina
Fit and Installation
Lumina suits 10-12mm frameless glass - minimum 10mm, maximum 12mm. Measure your glass thickness before ordering; most frameless glass doors in Australian homes and shopfronts fall within this range, but it is worth confirming.
It clips/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 the installation straightforward compared with a conventional smart lock.
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.
No. Because Lumina clamps onto the glass edge rather than sitting inside a machined mortice, there is no traditional backset to work around. The main figure to check is the 30mm recommended clearance around the lock body.
On the Gold Coast, yes - we offer a measure and install service that takes care of confirming glass thickness, door configuration and strike placement before anything is ordered.
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.
Yes. The app can issue permanent, timed and one-time PIN codes, so a cleaner can have a code that only works on their scheduled day and a one-off visitor can have a code that expires after a single use.
Not the Lumina. If you want 3D face recognition on a sliding door, look at the Vault Alpha - but note the Alpha suits framed doors, not frameless glass.
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.
The Vault G5 Gateway bridges the lock to your home Wi-Fi so you can unlock remotely, issue and revoke passcodes from anywhere, and view 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 2.4/5GHz routers can cause pairing hiccups. See our note on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and band steering before setting up.
Power and Weather
4 x AA batteries, not included. Use new alkaline cells, avoid mixing new and old, and replace them promptly when the lock signals a low battery.
The included backup mechanical key gets you in. 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 rated - protected against limited dust and low-pressure water jets - which supports everyday exposed use where the installation is appropriate; a covered entry is still the friendlier position. See the IP ratings guide, and for salt air our notes on coastal environments.
Warranty and Alternatives
Vault Smart Locks products purchased in Australia are covered for 12 months from purchase (24 months on select Signature Range models). Batteries, consumables, cosmetic finishes and misuse are excluded. See Returns & Warranty. This operates alongside your Australian Consumer Law rights.
Probably not - Lumina is purpose-built for frameless glass. For framed narrow-stile sliding doors look at the Vault Eclipse or the Vault Sliding Hook Mortice, and see the full Vault range guide.

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.
