    Tapo brings a 4K doorbell and a palm vein smart lock to Australian front doors

    SYDNEY, Australia - 13 October 2026 - TP-Link has launched the Tapo D260 Doorbell Pro, a 4K video doorbell that recognises familiar faces, and the Tapo DL130, a smart lock that opens with a palm or fingerprint.

    Between them, the two devices cover the front door's two main jobs: showing who is there, and letting the right people in.

    Tapo D260 Doorbell Pro

    The D260 records in 4K. Its 180° diagonal field of view takes in visitors from head to toe and packages left on the ground.

    • Fewer false alerts: Dual motion sensors and radar-powered detection separate real visitors from swaying branches, shadows and passing headlights, cutting down on false alerts
    • Recognises familiar faces: On-device facial recognition builds a library of familiar faces, and that biometric data stays on the doorbell
    • Smart alerts, no subscription: AI detection of people, animals, vehicles and packages comes with smart alerts at no extra cost
    • Wire-free or hardwired: Runs for up to 180 days* on a single charge, or can be hardwired for 24/7 recording with pre-roll footage
    • Doorbell calls with voice masking: Calls go to the owner's phone, with voice masking for answering unknown visitors

    Tapo DL130 smart lock

    The DL130 reads the vein pattern inside the hand. It recognises a palm in under 0.33 seconds and works with wet, dirty or sweaty hands, as well as children's hands.

    • Palm and fingerprint access: A fingerprint sensor (up to 100 fingerprints) sits alongside the palm reader, and all biometric data is stored in the lock, never sent online
    • Flexible access: Permanent, one-time and scheduled passcodes, plus an activity log and real-time notifications
    • Built-in safeguards: Auto-lock, a door-left-open alarm and a built-in doorbell
    • Certified and weatherproof: BHMA Grade 2 certified and IP65 weather-rated
    • Never locked out: A rechargeable main battery with a built-in backup, plus USB-C emergency power from a phone or power bank

    "A lot of what happens at the front door is everyday stuff, like your kids getting home before you and realising their keys are still on the kitchen bench. You want to see who’s there and let them in, without your face or fingerprints ending up in the cloud. That’s why we built both the doorbell and the lock to keep that data on the device itself," said Neville Wang, Managing Director, TP-Link Australia and New Zealand.
