Assure Lock 2 Touchscreen Deadbolt with Z-Wave, Black Suede | Auto-Lock with DoorSense, unlimited codes, backup key, Z-Wave hub required, Only compatible in US and Canada

I recently installed a Yale lock and I’m very impressed with its performance. It feels sturdy, secure, and well-made, giving me peace of mind about my home safety. The locking mechanism works smoothly and reliably, and it’s easy to use on a daily basis. I also like the modern design, which looks great on the door without being bulky. Installation was straightforward, and overall it feels like a high-quality product that you can trust. Definitely worth it for added security and convenience.

I love the look and functionality of the new lock. Was able to set up very quickly on their app. Problem was I wanted to integrate with our alarm system which uses alarm.com app. Spent a lot of time struggling with the alarm.com app add devise feature. It kept failing. One thing that initially wasn’t clear is that the locks app generates a code that you need to enter on the lock to pair it with the alarm system. I was trying to use my alarm.com code. It is in the app under settings. In the end I had to add from the alarm panel rather than the alarm.com app but it works well. Love having keyless entry on the bathroom door for post jacuzzi shower!

This was the 2nd Yale Assure 2 door lock that I installed in my house. Fairly standard installation. Fortunately for me, I was replacing an existing deadbolt lock so the door and door frame already had the necessary holes drilled. Since I was going to use this lock with my Home Assistant hub, I didn't bother trying to add user codes with the Yale App on my Smartphone. I created the user codes from Home Assistant. The only thing different from my previous installation is that I decided to install the small magnet which works with the 'DoorSense" sensor. I drilled a 5.8" diameter hole about 1/2" into the door frame 2 inches up from the center of the striker plate, and then inserted the supplied small magnet with cover. So when the door is closed, the Yale lock app will show the door status as "closed". Seems to work pretty well.

Worthless if you have an iPhone in the US. The app required to set it up is calle Yale Access and isn’t available in the US App Store so you have a $220 paper weight

I have had this for about a year. I have the wifi module that I paid extra for and this thing eats batteries. I'm finally writing this review as I have had enough. I replaced them 2 days ago and already down 6%. It's not the wifi connection as I have a ubiquiti wifi extender via POE right above it. There's no issues with the deadbolt going into the lock. I dont even use the automatic features. 99% of the time I am manually changing the lock so I have no idea what is draining the batteries. I'd avoid.

Expensive? Yes. Quiet? Yes. Works with Smartthings? Oh yeah! The lock looks sleek. The hidden buttons are a nice touch and having the option to unlock with a key is great. I have the zigbee module and am able to lock/unlock when I'm remote. This unit comes with a small door sensor and I recommend you install it by drilling into the side of your door frame like the instructions suggest. This is much better than sticking it to the side of the door where it can be ripped off accidentally (like mine did). Best smart door lock I've had so far.

Mixed feelings about these Yale smart locks. The physical product is solid - installation was straightforward and the build quality is good. The fingerprint reader works decently (though not perfectly) at about a 75% first-try success rate. The major letdowns are all software-related: The Yale app is frustratingly basic and poorly designed Having to register the same fingerprints separately for EACH lock is ridiculous Bluetooth auto-unlock is unreliable at best App connectivity can be spotty For the price point, the software experience should be much better. If you're buying multiple locks, be prepared for some tedious setup and management. Pros: Easy installation Good build quality Decent fingerprint reader Cons: Terrible app experience No fingerprint sharing between locks Unreliable auto-unlock Expensive for the features you get

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Works great with my security system
