Vault Phantom Slimline Smart Lock - Lever or Knob - Black or Gold
The Vault Phantom is a slimline smart lock built for narrow aluminium and timber doors where space is limited but digital access control is still wanted. Its slim body suits narrow joinery that larger smart-lock escutcheons cannot fit or would look out of proportion on.
Phantom opens by fingerprint, PIN code, RFID card or fob, Bluetooth from the Vault Smart Locks app, and a mechanical override key. It is available in Black or Gold, with lever or knob handle options, and remote access is available when you add the optional Vault G5 Gateway. It suits residential and light commercial doors where both appearance and fitment matter.
If your door is a standard-width stile, the plain lever Vault Prime or the lever-or-knob Vault Neo may suit better.
Estimated warehouse dispatch is 3 business days.

Mortice and Latch Options

Battery, Power and Backup Access
The Phantom is battery powered, with 4 batteries (not included) installed in the back body behind the battery cover as part of the standard setup. Confirm battery installation and key access during initial setup.
Phantom includes mechanical override keys for entry when 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
- Narrow aluminium doors and screen-style entry doors with limited stile width
- Narrow timber doors where a full-size smart-lock body will not fit
- Residential front, side and internal doors

Wi-Fi Remote Access (Optional)
Phantom 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. Phantom is a slimline lock designed for narrow aluminium and timber door stiles where a larger lock body would not fit or would look out of proportion.
Yes, when paired with a compatible sliding hook bolt mortice. The standard 60mm backset mortice is for hinged doors only, so a different mortice must be selected for sliding-door use.
No. Phantom uses fingerprint, PIN, RFID card, Bluetooth app control and mechanical key. For 3D facial recognition on a lever lock, see the Vault Guardian.
Yes, when paired with the optional Vault G5 Gateway. Without the gateway it works locally over Bluetooth and onboard credentials. See what a gateway does.
Phantom comes in Black or Gold. The lever is available in Black or Gold; the knob is available in Black only. Confirm the handle style and finish before ordering, as these cannot be exchanged after purchase.
Additional Information
Phantom suits doors where stile width is limited. Measure carefully before ordering, as stile width and door thickness both affect whether a slimline smart lock will fit.
Fitment must be matched to the actual door and application. Selecting the wrong mortice type is one of the most common installation errors, covered in backset mistakes and spindle mistakes. On the Gold Coast we also offer a measure and install service.
Phantom is the slimline lever-or-knob lock for narrow stiles. For a standard-width lever, see the Prime or Triton; for another slimline option, the Eclipse or the face-recognition Zenith. See the full Vault range guide and the Vault brand profile.

Vault Warranty
Vault Smart Locks products are backed by a manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential or commercial use. All claims are handled locally by Terry's Tradies Pty Ltd and its associated websites, trading names, and subsidiaries - start with us and we'll manage the process with Vault on your behalf.

- 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.
