Danalock is a Danish smart lock brand from Poly-Control, and Salto Systems has held an equity stake in the company since 2017. Its main product is the Danalock V3, a motorised retrofit lock sold in Bluetooth, Z-Wave, Zigbee and HomeKit versions, controlled from the Danalock app or from a smart home hub.

Works with full table
The lock version decides how it connects. The Bluetooth model works with the Danalock app and, with the optional Danabridge, remotely. The Z-Wave and Zigbee versions can also join a hub, and the HomeKit version was designed for Apple Home. Salto's own page warns that adding a Z-Wave lock to a hub before the app turns Bluetooth off.
That suits people who already run a Z-Wave or Zigbee hub, or who want a retrofit lock that keeps the existing cylinder and key. It is weaker for voice control, because we found no direct Alexa or Google Home support or Matter on Salto's pages, and the HomeKit version is no longer in production.

The current app. Salto's support page calls it the official app going forward and says it is the main control for Danalock locks, including the V3 HomeKit version once that is updated to dual-mode firmware 2.7.5. The App Store listing mentions calibration, lock status, GPS auto-unlock, latch holding, PIN code management and pairing with a Danabridge. Published by Poly-Control.
A legacy app that is still listed on the App Store. Salto's support page recommends switching to the Danalock app and gives this app only in connection with account deletion. We could not find a Google Play listing for it.
A second legacy app named on Salto's support page, again only for account deletion with a recommendation to move to the Danalock app. We found no store links for it.

| Platform | Status | What it means | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connection | |||
| Bluetooth | Yes | Bluetooth is the base connection for the lock and the Danalock app. Salto's product page names BLE 4.2 and 256-bit AES encryption between lock, phone and accessories. The Bluetooth-only version does not work with Z-Wave, Zigbee or HomeKit, and the Danabridge gives it remote control outside Bluetooth range. | Salto Danalock V3 product page Salto Bluetooth page (Spanish) |
| Z-Wave | Yes | The V3 Z-Wave comes as BTZE for Europe (868.4 or 869.85 MHz) and BTZU for the USA, Canada and Mexico (908.4 or 916 MHz), and the version must match the region. The lock can be used in the app, with a hub, or both. Adding it to the hub before the app disables Bluetooth. | Salto Z-Wave page |
| Zigbee | Yes | The V3 Zigbee BTZB is built on Zigbee 1.2, was made before 2020 and has a Zigbee module that cannot be updated. Salto lists Echo (4th gen and Plus), Homey, Home Assistant, Hubitat, SmartThings and other hubs as compatible. | Salto Zigbee page |
