Vault Olympus Push Pull Smart Mortice Lock with 3D Face Recognition
At A Glance
The Vault Olympus (Vault_Olympus) is a full-size push-pull smart mortice lock for main entry doors. It combines 3D facial recognition with fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth app and mechanical key access, and ships configured with a 6068 (60mm backset) mortice to suit standard entry doors.
An internal cat-eye viewing screen lets you see who is at the door from inside the home without opening it. The Olympus runs on Bluetooth as standard, with remote access, activity history and remote passcodes available through the optional Vault G5 Gateway. It suits timber and aluminium entry doors 35mm to 60mm thick; for the closely related model, see the Vault Titan.
Estimated warehouse dispatch is 3 business days.
Key Features
- Full-size push-pull smart mortice lock for main entry doors.
- 3D facial recognition plus fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth app unlock and mechanical override key.
- Internal cat-eye viewing screen (digital peephole) to see visitors from inside without opening the door.
- Ships configured with the Vault 6068 special mortice (60mm backset, 68mm lock centres).
- Euro cylinder key override included.
- Aluminium alloy body in Black; IP55 weather-rated external module.
- Rechargeable lithium battery with a low-voltage alarm (under 6.8V).
- Bluetooth-first control, with optional Wi-Fi remote access via the Vault G5 Gateway.
Facial Recognition Access
The Olympus includes 3D structured-light facial recognition for fast, touch-free entry - it captures depth rather than a flat image. For the plain-English difference between camera types, see Chapter 06 - 2D vs 3D facial recognition. Vault does not publish a face-profile figure for this model; enrolment is managed in the app.
Face recognition works alongside fingerprint, PIN, RFID card, Bluetooth app control and backup key access - compare them in Chapter 03 - Access Methods, or browse every face-recognition smart lock we stock.
User capacity and performance depend on the model-specific hardware and setup.
Internal Cat-Eye Viewing Screen
The Olympus and the Vault Titan feature an internal cat-eye screen, so you can see who is at the door from inside the home without opening it.
It works as a digital peephole - the exterior camera shows on the interior display. It does not include an intercom, so there is no two-way audio or video to your phone; for that, look at the Vault Vision range (Fortress Vision, Nexus Vision, Guardian Vision).
The external (outside) module is IP55 weather rated for everyday outdoor exposure - protection against limited dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. The internal module, which houses the battery compartment and electronics, is for interior use only and is not weather rated. See Chapter 11 - IP ratings.
Access Methods
The Olympus offers six ways in, plus optional Wi-Fi remote access. For a plain-English comparison of what each method does well, see Chapter 03 - Access Methods.

6068 Mortice Configuration
The Olympus includes the Vault 6068 special mortice (60mm backset, 68mm lock centres, 304 stainless steel) as its configured lock body - the 6068's own sheet names the Olympus and the Titan as its compatible locks. Note the 6068 runs 68mm lock centres, not the 85mm pitch of Vault's Euro bodies, so the two are not interchangeable - see the Vault mortice comparison guide.
For mortice format background see Chapter 01 - mortice deadbolts, and confirm your backset before ordering with Chapter 02 - measuring your backset. Our full mortice range is under Mortice Locks for Smart Locks.
Battery, Power & Backup Access
The Olympus is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery. A low-voltage alarm (under 6.8V) warns you when the battery is running low, so you can recharge before the lock stops responding.
Euro-cylinder override keys cover entry if the battery is 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
- Main residential front and entry doors where face recognition and a door viewer add convenience
- Timber and aluminium hinged doors 35mm to 60mm thick
- Homes wanting touch-free entry plus fingerprint, PIN, card and app access
- Light commercial entrances where a full-size push-pull lock suits the door
- Covered outdoor entries where the external module gets rain protection rather than full direct exposure

Full Specifications


Wi-Fi Remote Access (Optional)
The Olympus is controlled over Bluetooth from the Vault Smart Locks app as standard, available for 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, review unlock records, and add supported Alexa and Google Home voice control - see what the G5 adds. The dual-band G5 avoids the band-steering problem that affects single-band gateways; for how a gateway works and whether you need one, see Chapter 08 - what a gateway does or the blog on whether you need a gateway at all.
Browse the wider range of modules and Wi-Fi gateways or Terry's full WiFi smart lock selection.
Mechanical Key Backup
The Olympus includes a mechanical key override, so entry remains available if the battery is depleted or electronic access cannot be used. The override runs through a euro cylinder, with keys supplied.
Keep a spare key somewhere off-site rather than inside the door it opens. For where the keyhole is hidden and what to do when the battery goes flat, see where the keyhole is and what to do when the battery dies. More locks with a physical fallback are in the Has Backup Key category.
Frequently Asked Questions
3D. The Olympus uses 3D structured-light recognition, which captures depth rather than a flat image. See 2D vs 3D facial recognition. Vault does not publish a face-profile figure for this model.
No. The internal cat-eye screen is a digital peephole for seeing who is at the door from inside. It does not provide two-way audio or video to your phone - for that, see the Vault Vision range in the range overview.
It is configured with the Vault 6068 special mortice (60mm backset, 68mm lock centres). Confirm your door preparation and backset before ordering.
Yes, with the optional Vault G5 Gateway. Without the gateway it works locally over Bluetooth and its onboard credentials. See Wi-Fi and remote access.
No. Vault smart locks are not certified for fire-rated doors. For Queensland fire-door compliance requirements, see Chapter 05 of the Buyers Guide.
Additional Information
The internal cat-eye screen is a viewing feature only - it shows the exterior camera on an interior display so you can check who is at the door before opening. It is not a video doorbell and does not stream to your phone. The same feature is shared with the Vault Titan; if you need a phone intercom, look at the Vault Vision range instead.
The 6068 special mortice format should be confirmed against your actual door preparation before ordering. Common fitting errors are covered in backset mistakes and spindle mistakes - on the Gold Coast we also offer a measure and install service.
3D recognition is convenient, but enrol faces carefully and pair them with a PIN or fingerprint as a backup. For performance, privacy and anti-spoofing background, see liveness detection and the Privacy Act notes.
The IP55 rating applies to the external module only, and salt air accelerates wear on all electronic hardware regardless of IP figures - see our notes on coastal Queensland environments and lock lifespan near the coast.
Vault's warranty policy includes a refundable assessment holding fee of $200 (metro) or $250 (elsewhere) when a returned lock is booked in for assessment - see the Vault warranty policy for how it works, and talk to us first so your claim starts in the right lane.

Vault Olympus Push Pull Smart Mortice Lock with 3D Face Recognition - FAQ, Setup and Owner's Guide
The deeper questions we get asked about the Olympus, answered in one place. For the basics across every brand, start with Chapter 03 - Smart Lock Access Methods and the Vault Smart Lock Range guide.
Access and Credentials
200 fingerprints, 150 PIN codes and 200 RFID cards or fobs. Vault does not publish a face-profile figure for this model - face enrolment is managed in the app. Every credential is added, renamed and removed from the Vault Smart Locks app, so you can run the whole household or a small team from one screen. For what each credential type does well, see Chapter 03 - Access Methods compared.
Yes. The app issues permanent, timed and one-time PIN codes. Standing next to the door, Bluetooth is all you need; to send or cancel a code from somewhere else you need the optional Vault G5 Gateway - see whether you need a gateway at all.
The Olympus reads the Vault RFID cards and fobs supplied with the lock, with capacity for up to 200. Browse other card and fob smart locks if RFID is your main credential.
Face Recognition
It uses 3D structured-light recognition, which reads the depth of a face rather than a flat image - a printed photo does not have depth, so it does not read as a face. For the plain-English difference between camera types, see Chapter 06 - 2D vs 3D facial recognition, and for how liveness detection works across face-recognition locks, the liveness detection section.
3D structured-light systems project their own pattern rather than relying on ambient light, so they are not dependent on daylight the way a plain camera is. Enrol faces carefully at the installed height and keep a PIN or fingerprint as the everyday backup - see Chapter 06 for realistic expectations.
Deploying facial recognition in a commercial, strata or managed rental setting may trigger obligations under the Australian Privacy Act - review the Privacy Act notes in Chapter 06 before installation. For homes there is no such hurdle. Other face-capable models are in the Palm or Face Recognition category.
No. The internal cat-eye screen is a digital peephole - it shows the exterior camera on an interior display so you can check who is at the door before opening. It does not stream to your phone and has no two-way audio; for a phone intercom, look at the Vault Vision range (Fortress Vision, Nexus Vision, Guardian Vision).
Door Fit and the 6068 Mortice
The Vault 6068 special mortice - 60mm backset, 68mm lock centres, 304 stainless steel, with an integrated turnsnib. It is the odd one out in the Vault mortice family (68mm pitch rather than 85mm), so it is not interchangeable with the 85mm Euro bodies - the mortice comparison guide shows the differences.
It suits aluminium and timber hinged doors 35mm to 60mm thick, with a recommended side clearance of 65mm. Measure before ordering - Chapter 02 - Measuring Your Door shows how.
Rebated (overlapping) pairs need the Vault Rebate Kit, which converts the Vault mortices for double-door use - confirm latch and strike alignment against your pair before ordering. Flush pairs and single doors do not need it.
No. Vault smart locks are not certified for fire-rated doors. For where fire-door compliance applies in Queensland, see Chapter 05 - Fire Door Smart Locks.
Power and Batteries
By a rechargeable lithium battery housed in the interior module. A low-voltage alarm warns you once the supply drops below 6.8V, so you can recharge before the lock stops responding. For charge and maintenance expectations across electronic locks, see the realities of electronic door locks.
Vault does not publish a battery-life figure for the Olympus - real-world life depends on how many unlocks a day the door sees and which credentials you use. Recharge when the low-voltage alarm sounds rather than running it flat.
Use the mechanical override key. Mechanical override keys are supplied (euro-cylinder override), and the key works in every power condition. See what to do when the battery dies and where the keyhole is hidden.
Remote Access and the Vault App
No. It runs on Bluetooth as standard - every credential works at the door with no internet at all. Wi-Fi only enters the picture if you add the optional Vault G5 Gateway for remote features. See what a gateway does and does not add.
Remote lock and unlock, remote passcode creation and deletion, unlock-record viewing and supported Alexa and Google Home voice control - the lock talks Bluetooth to the G5, and the G5 talks to your router. The full list is on the G5 Gateway page, with the range comparison in Chapter 08.
Smart lock gateways use the 2.4GHz band, and routers that auto-merge 2.4GHz and 5GHz cause most dropouts. The dual-band G5 avoids the worst of the band-steering problem; if you have had dropouts before, read why smart locks drop off Wi-Fi before setup.
The Vault Smart Locks app, available for iOS and Android
Weather and Coastal Exposure
The external (outside) module is IP55 weather rated - everyday outdoor protection against limited dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, on the outside module only. The internal module houses the battery and electronics and is for interior use only. For what IP figures actually mean, see Chapter 11 - IP ratings.
Salt air accelerates wear on every electronic lock, whatever its IP rating - rinse-free coastal care and realistic lifespan expectations are covered in coastal environments and how long digital locks last near the coast. A covered entry makes a real difference.
Installation and Setup
A confident DIYer with the right door preparation can, but most fit problems trace back to measuring - see when DIY makes sense and the common installation mistakes. On the Gold Coast, Terry's offers a site survey and installation service - or start with our advice and installation page.
Door thickness first - the Olympus suits doors 35mm to 60mm thick - then the backset against the included 6068 mortice (60mm backset, 68mm lock centres) and side clearance (65mm recommended). Start with Chapter 02 - measuring your backset and the backset mistakes to avoid.
The manual's seven-step installation covers both handings - the mortice and cylinder are adjusted and the tailbar and 8x8 spindle are cut to the door during fitting. Confirm your door's handing with us when ordering.
Warranty and Support
Vault covers the standard range for 12 months from purchase, with select Signature Range models carrying 24 months where stated on the listing or packaging - the full terms are in the Warranty section above and the Vault warranty policy.
Yes - Vault's warranty policy includes a refundable assessment holding fee of $200 (metro) or $250 (elsewhere) when a returned lock is booked in for assessment. The fee and how it is refunded are set out in the Vault warranty policy; talk to us first and we will point your claim in the right direction.
Contact Terry's first - we sold it, and we will manage the claim path with Vault on your behalf. Start at Returns and Warranty.

- Normal wear and tear.
- Cosmetic damage that does not affect performance.

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.
