Yale Assure Lock with Z Wave Smart Home Technology and Touchscreen Keypad

Bernard Austin: Very easy to install and setup. Yale 24/7 support is great if you have any issues. Very reliable, this is my third lock and they all before well. Battery performance is great, I change the batteries every 6 months to be safe, it is usually at 70% when I change them, I assume it can last a year+ if you needed it to do so.

Antoine: Easy to install and connect / configure with our RING alarm system. Can monitor, lock and unlock remotely through the app easily.
I do however find the touch screen does not respond as quicky as I would like.

Overall great product. 100% recommend.

J MancillaJ Mancilla: This Lock replaces our regular door lock we bought the Ring alarm for the house we included cameras and a garage opener so this was the missing part in our system at first I was a little skeptical to buy this lock cause I read few reviews about the lock giving trouble to connect with the Ring alarm but after I decided to buy the lock the installation was very easy and the setup took only few minutes and is been working fine the only thing I had to modify was the plate in my door cause the lock was touching one of the edges and the alarm was saying that the door was jammed so I decided to grind the opening in the plate a little and that resolved the problem so far is a good buy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

L Au: The is the 2nd Yale Zwave deadbolt that I bought. The first one (RYD210) was bought back in 2011 and it is still work well. I replace it because the color on the outside is all dull due to 12 years weather exposure. This touchscreen one look much more luxurious and I like the voice instruction is very convenience. Also the sound effort is much soft. But other than that, the installation design and functions are all pretty much sme as 12 years ago. And work just the same. Fairly reliable with few issues that can be resolved by completely reset and reprogram. The only thing lack is the random code feature that Kiwkset/Weiser has so people cannot see your finger print to guest your code.

MikeH: Great lock, functions as it should. Replaced 2 garbage Schlage locks (they are the WORST company ever with zero customer service and support) with these and the experience was wonderful. Just make sure to buy configured as you need it. You can get it with a) no connectivity b) with WiFi or c) with zWave (might be other options I don't know). In my case I wanted integration with Ring and it worked perfectly, setup was ultra fast and simple.

As another reviewer mentioned make sure it locks and unlocks without hitting the sides (best way IMHO is to ensure the door catch pulls the door to the correct position for the deadbolt to lock).

S.S: I have been using this lock for almost 2 years now.
It is on the main door of the house so it is used many times a day.

The first time I had to change the batteries was after about 22 months of use.

Being Z-wave I have been able to integrate it in to my home automation setup and it works well, but I like that it will also work in its own without joining the z-wave network.

Recently we had temperatures in the 40 degrees Celsius range and this lock is on a south facing wall that has no shade or protection from the sun. It performed perfectly without issue.
In the direct sun it is a bit hard to see the blue numbers on the keypad but you can still see them. You just have to hold your hand up to shade the number pad.
If I had more doors where I could use these locks, I would buy one for each door.

You need a door that is ONLY locked by a deadbolt. If you have a deadbolt AND a door handle lock, then you will have to leave the door handle unlocked to get much use out of this in any sort of home automation setup.

I like that I can unlock my door to let people in no matter where I am (at work for example) and the lock it again when they leave....

JD: The lock itself is very well constructed, solid, streamlined, and very attractive. Installation was a breeze, and everything went together perfectly, until...

Connecting the lock to my Abode security hub has not gone well at all. I cannot count he innumerable number of attempts I've made to get this thing integrated into the system so that I can control it remotely via my phone. it came with no instructions, everything must be found on your own online, which means you better know exactly what you're looking for, and how to find it.

Following both the locks instructions on pairing (which is brief) AND Abodes instructions it seemed pretty straight forward, but still has not worked after two weeks of trying. Upon reaching out to both Abode and Yale, they each directed me back to the other for possible resolution. I believe I may have a faulty Z-Wave module that came with the lock, so I will be reaching out to Yale or the seller about that.

Being a techie myself, ironically I am not a fan of all of this connectivity. It seems to cause more problems than it claims to solve, and you spend more time working to debug, repair, reboot, reset, troubleshoot, and being on...

Neil: I've used a number of keypad locks over the years and a couple of smart home locks. This lock is well built and responsive, it is designed to fit a couple of different deadbolt hole sizes/positions (two most common north american standards) and comes with a good installation guide (read it). I had no problems installing, although the deadbolt resizes for "deeper" holes and how it does that looked a little odd at first (it looked like the deadbolt was retracting too far) until I understood how it worked. The z-wave function was easy to install and setup and I have mine paired with a Samsung SmartThings Hub v3 with no issues and now incorporated into a lot of routines with door sensors and proximity sensors. Setting codes is straight forward. I find the keypad a little odd since it is a flat surface and needs to be "palm" touched before lighting up and activating, but once you get used to it you are fine. It does NOT have number randomization, so a lock that gets heavy use may eventually show the key code numbers through wear on the display, but for a garage lock like I am using it this isn't really a concern for me. I'm quite happy with the look and build quality.

M. Bryant: I have Abode home security & automation system and needed a lock that works with it. The Yale Assure lock with z-wave was up and running in 10 minutes (to be fair I have installed a lot of regular dead bolts, this isn't really any different, just have to make sure you put the wires in the right way, but that's pretty easy). The z-wave integration with Abode was easy enough, although if your not tech savy you may struggle with that part. Nice that I can set it up to notify my phone when its open, AND I can lock and unlock through my Abode phone app

The lock is grade 2, so better than a regular cheap deadlock you'd pick up at the hardware store, so it is a step up in security, just make sure your strike plate on the door frame using 3 inch long screws that reach the frame, otherwise it won't matter if you have grade1 or 2 or 3 deadbolt- anyone could kick it open in a few seconds. This comes with everything you need, screws and all, just make sure it goes all the way into the frame of the house and not just the trim.

The touch screen is very nice and responds very well and the autolock function works really well, especially when you have kids and hands are always...

Mark Neveu: Installation took less than 15 mins, another 5 mins to connect to my Z-Wave hub (used Smartthings, which I had set up the day prior and connected it to Alexa ahead of time). Then another 5 mins to setup my family codes and settings. This is Super easy, anyone can install this. So in 25 mins I can now say "Alexa, lock my door"! Was very impressed with the simplicity of the design, the clear instructions, and the quality of the materials. It looks great too. Setting up codes and settings is easy thanks to a printed menu you get, plus the thing speaks to you!

One thing I was caught off guard by was learning that you cannot UNlock your door with Alexa. Thinking about it, that makes sense, but I feel these huge banner ads "Works with Alexa!" should have a disclaimer on it. You really just need the voice feature to LOCK the door, and to check if it is locked, which this does perfectly. ME "Hey Alexa, is my front door locked?", ALEXA "Let me check if your front door is locked... Yes your front door is locked"

And last, the Alexa-Smartthings 'dance' is funky and hard to follow. You jump around back and forth between the 2 apps trying to understand who is doing what, and most...
