OverviewTedee Dry Contact is a compact wired control module that enables local wired control of a Tedee smart lock (Tedee GO2 or Tedee PRO) using dry-contact inputs. The unit communicates with the smart lock over Bluetooth and can trigger lock and unlock operations without requiring an internet connection or a Tedee Bridge for local operations.
Key features- Wired dry-contact control for Tedee GO2 and Tedee PRO smart locks
- Local Bluetooth operation for unlocking without internet or Bridge
- Compact, retrofit-friendly form factor (matchbox-sized)
- Two logical inputs to trigger lock and unlock actions
- Two outputs: lock status (locked/unlocked) and attention/fault signal
- Designed for permanent wiring and professional installation
Installation and operationTedee Dry Contact must be permanently installed and powered within the Bluetooth range of the paired smart lock. The Tedee app is required for initial installation, pairing, configuration, calibration and firmware updates. After pairing, wired inputs such as push-buttons or relay outputs from alarm or building control systems can trigger locking and unlocking. The module provides lock status and an attention signal on two dedicated outputs and is intended to be wired to existing controllers and a local power source.
Use cases- Push-button at a reception desk for press-to-unlock operation
- Integration of a wireless smart lock into KNX or other wired smart-home/building systems
- Adding Tedee locks to legacy alarm or building management systems without rewiring
- Controlling automatic door openers, access buttons, or other wired entry methods
Compatibility and limitationsTedee Dry Contact is compatible with Tedee GO2 and Tedee PRO only. One Dry Contact unit supports one smart lock. The module replaces the need for a Tedee Bridge for local wired control but does not provide remote cloud access by itself. Verify the installation location is within Bluetooth range of the paired smart lock and confirm operation via the Tedee app before finalising wiring.
Safety & deployment notesThe device is intended for professional installation to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical standards. Permanent wiring and correct power connections are required. The property owner or administrator should retain Tedee app owner/administrator access for calibration, monitoring (including lock battery level) and firmware updates. Tedee is not responsible for the physical security of the installation or protection against unauthorised access to a wired setup.
Frequently Asked Questions (summary)- Can one Dry Contact control multiple smart locks? No — one Dry Contact connects to one Tedee PRO or Tedee GO2 only.
- Is a Tedee Bridge required? No — the Dry Contact works locally over Bluetooth without a Bridge for wired control.
- How does it integrate with other Tedee devices? Events triggered via Dry Contact are reflected in the app and other integrations remain available (Bridge-based remote features optional).
- Does it support the pull-spring feature? If the lock’s automatic pull-spring is enabled, it will execute after an unlocking operation triggered via Dry Contact.
- Can I self-install? The product is intended for professional installation; technically skilled personnel may install following safety procedures and using the Tedee app for pairing and configuration.
- Is the Tedee app still required? Yes — the Tedee app is needed for initial configuration, pairing, calibration and firmware updates. End users can use wired methods for daily unlocking after setup.
