Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch Deadbolt, Black Suede Keyed Smart Entry Door Lock with Wi-Fi Connected Touchscreen Keypad and Fingerprint Scanner for Vacation Rental Hosts, YRD420-F-CB1-BSP

Really good app that makes installation easy. Product works great. I didn’t really need the biometrics but it was available quicker. The only issue I had was the instructions for setting up the WiFi Connect weren’t clear. Called support and they cleared it up. Overall a great integration between hardware and the app. Plus us tech support was great.

Arrived just on time! A bit of scratch but doesn’t affect its functionality. I am happy with it

Really good lock nobody got in anymore lol

2 years ago I decided to buy a smart lock for our front door. After everyone expressed their dislike for the smart lock that I chose I decided to look for a new one. My requirements were few but easy enough to fullfill. My kids and husband hated always having to connect to an app to open our front door so I wanted something that was easy to use and didn’t depend on a finicky app. We also wanted a smart lock that actually locked the door, our old one wasn’t even doing that correctly. When I came across the Yale Assure Lock and it met all of my requirements I decided to give it a try.As soon as the lock arrived my son and I got to work removing the old smart lock and replacing it with the Yale Assure Lock. The lock comes with detailed instructions and multiple tools to help with installation. While I wish that I could say installation was a breeze and took no time at all, sadly it did not. My son and I got caught up in a few places, with all of the steps needed to install the lock a certain way depending on your door. At some points the pieces just weren’t fitting together right or as pictured and it required a little problem solving but we did eventually get it installed.I have a teenager and a grade schooler so I love the ease of assigning each of their own specific code to unlock the door. When anyone unlocks the door I receive a notification on my phone showing who has unlocked the door. This is great for keeping tabs on my kids. I also love that I can assign a recurring code with a limited access time for our housekeepers. I no longer have to make sure that I am home to unlock and lock the door when they are here. The app also gives the homeowner the ability to check the status of the door. If it is green the door is locked and if it is red it is unlocked. If you want it to be locked or unlocked you can also control it via the app. The Yale Assure Lock also offers a feature that unlocks/locks the lock based on your phones location. So many times I have arrived home with my arms full and love that my front door is already unlocked for me.My family has been using this lock for well over a month now and it is lightyears better than our previous lock. Besides a slightly difficult installation, my app does occasionally say that door has been left open when it is closed. I will troubleshoot that and report back with any changes. Overall I am very impressed with the Yale Assure Lock. I love that it is so easy to use and that we are able to assign different codes to each family member, friend or even our housekeepers. This lock is amazing and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality smart lock for their home.My Rating Scale⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - outstanding and I would highly recommend this product⭐⭐⭐⭐ - exceeds expectations but there were a couple small issues⭐⭐⭐ - meets expectations but there were a few issues⭐⭐ - needs improvement⭐ - unacceptable and I would not recommend this productThis product was provided to me at a or no cost in exchange for my honest review

Muy contentos con la calidad

I have Google home as my smart home hub/brains, and I use Google’s nest wifi pro router mesh system in my house. I bought and installed this lock on a side door to my house, thinking that if I liked it I would later add another one to my front door. I won’t be doing that.One thing to know about the lock is that there are various tests they’ll give you in installing the lock to replace an existing deadbolt in terms of the size of the existing hole in the door, the location of that hole relative to the door edge, etc. My door passed in everyway but one. So there I was with my old deadbolt removed, this new yale lock package open with parts strewn around my work bench, and NOW you tell me that it won’t fit my door? Should there not be some (easy) way for the customer to determine that BEFORE buying the lock?But mine wasn’t far off, the hole in my door was about ¼” in diameter too big, so I tried it anyway, I think compensating with the latch part that comes out at the edge of the door and made it work.The lock itself seems fine, and I very much like using my finger (actually thumb in my case) print to open the lock quickly. But I bought this as something to integrate into Google Home. I could get a simple keypad lock, I imagine, for less money and certainly less hassle.I’ve tried every combination of things and gone round and round with Yale product support. A positive is that they’ve responded pretty quickly. They just haven’t come up with anything useful. I’m asking to either be escalated to a higher level of support or for a refund of that part of my purchase. I’m not optimistic. A(nother) downside of their support is that they just ignore parts of my response that they aren’t inclined to respond to.The hoops they’ve had me jump through are ridiculous. They tell me that the bridge connect unit has to be plugged in fairly close to my lock, and I get that --- Bluetooth doesn’t have super range, though in fact I can connect from my phone to the yale lock (via Bluetooth since their POS wifi bridge doesn’t work) from much farther away than they demand for connection. But they also told me at one point that the bridge unit has to be no further from my router than 15 feet. Perhaps their design staff all live in tiny homes and/or small apartments and aren’t inclined to do any product testing in the real world, but for a unit designed to bridge from Bluetooth to wifi that, IMO, is ridiculous. I got it to within 20 feet of my router mesh node and saw at that point that I had strong wi-fi connection; measured my wifi speed at that point using speedtest.net and found I was getting 300-some Mbps download and about 25 Mbps upload speed there. But it still just immediately tells me that it can’t connect.This is the newer approach they have to wifi connection. The previous approach (and btw, the only approach the documentation refers to) is a sort of module that you plug in to the lock itself. I think the idea was that with the new approach a single wifi bridge could serve multiple locks, and that sounded good to me when I chose to buy this thing. I asked product support if the older plug-in wifi module would work better and they told me that it wouldn’t.So. If all you want is a smart lock that works via key, fingerprint or keypad, this is a fine unit. If, however, you aspire to connect it to your smart home, I would suggest that you buy … well, I don’t know what. Maybe some other manufacturer actually tests their products before shipping them to end users. This one apparently does not.Ah, and I should add about the fingerprint sensor: the first time I tried to set this up I gave up and abandoned it. It requires you to keep pushing your finger on it through 12 steps, and I kept getting stuck around step 5 or 6 and it wouldn’t go further, eventually timed out. I had a phone like that once, a real PITA. But I went back later and with more patience and care was able to advance it through all 12 stages with my thumb, and it opens flawlessly (the few times I’ve tried) via thumbprint now. Much easier than keying in a code each time. But just be warned, it’s not the easiest fingerprint reader that you’ve used in terms of registering the fingerprint in the first place.

Description is misleading. Says it connects with WiFi. However package does not contain WiFi module and unit will not connect to WiFi.

Very satisfied with the purchase. I own the GEN 1. I wanted the fingerprint feature so bought this. Setup is a breeze. Very satisfied. Now, I just need to dispose the other one.
