Janus International Group announced the launch of the Nokē Infinitē, a battery‑free dual‑technology smart lock that combines Bluetooth and NFC power‑harvesting, on April 6 2026. The new lock expands the Nokē Smart Entry platform, which already powers 458,000 units in self‑storage facilities worldwide.
The Infinitē is designed for on‑door installation and delivers keyless entry, remote monitoring, and battery‑free operation by harvesting ambient power from radio‑frequency and light sources. The power‑harvesting circuitry can capture up to 0.5 mW of energy, sufficient to run the lock’s microcontroller and Bluetooth radio without a battery, reducing maintenance costs for operators and eliminating the need for battery replacements.
Janus’s strategy to convert one‑time door sales into long‑term service contracts is reinforced by this launch. The company reported Q4 2025 revenue of $226.3 million, a 1.9% decline YoY but beating analyst estimates, and an adjusted EPS of $0.11, missing consensus. The Infinitē is expected to drive adoption of service contracts and increase recurring revenue in 2026, supporting the company’s guidance of $940‑$980 million in revenue for the full year, an 8.6% increase at the midpoint from 2025.
The self‑storage market is shifting toward proptech, and Janus’s 458,000 installed units represent a 25.5% YoY increase. The global smart‑lock market is projected to grow significantly by 2030, and Janus differentiates itself with a battery‑free design that eliminates battery maintenance. While other proptech firms offer smart‑access solutions, the Infinitē’s dual‑technology and power‑harvesting features provide a competitive edge in the self‑storage segment.
CEO Ramey Jackson said, "We are pleased to announce the launch of our latest innovation, Nokē Infinitē—a reliable, scalable, on‑door, wireless smart locking solution designed specifically for the self‑storage industry." He added, "At Janus, we are committed to advancing smart security and automation technology. With Nokē Infinitē, we are extending our industry‑leading technology to self‑storage facilities worldwide, reinforcing our position at the forefront of global innovation."
Janus’s 2026 guidance of $940‑$980 million in revenue, an 8.6% increase at the midpoint from 2025, reflects confidence in the growing demand for smart‑access solutions. The Infinitē is expected to contribute to this growth by expanding service‑contract adoption, thereby strengthening the company’s recurring‑revenue pipeline and reinforcing its leadership in the self‑storage door market.
