Great lock for Smart Home Automation
I bought two of these, one for my entry door and one for the back door. I am on a let’s make our home a smart home kick right now. Part of that is I want to eliminate all keys except for my vehicle key fob. And, it is also important for me to use one application to control my home, in my case, I am using Apple Home – therefore to some degree HomeKit compatibility is important. This review is about the the installation, lock itself, the Yale Access App, and HomeKit integration.After looking at a lot of locks I landed on this one, the Yale Assure Lock 2 with Wi-Fi. It looks nice, it is keyless, and it is HomeKit compatible.INSTALLATION: Installation was a breeze for me. I am replacing existing keyed deadbolts. So no need to align a door to a frame. The lock itself easily installed in the existing cutouts. I didn’t even need to replace the door frame strike plate as my old one works fine. I found the instructions easy to follow, the lock installation of the physical device/lock took me about 15 minutes, most of that was just making sure I did it per the instructions.THE LOCK: At first my thought was this is a $200+ deadbolt and in my head I was comparing it to a normal deadbolt. This is absolutely the incorrect view. This is a computer that has a physical deadbolt it controls. When thinking like that the $200+ price tag is not all that bad. I would say good value for the money. The only criticisms would be that the physical locking mechanism (thing that turns the deadbolt mechanism to extend it into the door frame) is a simple flimsy piece of metal, versus in normal deadbolts it is typically a non-square type of peg to do that job. I am unsure if this really matters at all though, as long as it does the job it is kind of who cares. Another criticism, which if you think about it, would really be an unfair one, yet important to note, is the size of the interior part of the lock is HUGE (comparatively speaking) – reason for unfair – where would the batteries and computer portion go if it wasn’t this big?YALE ACCESS APP: The working of the lock portion is good enough. The set up is horrible. You must watch (or scroll) through the installation instructions for each item, just to be able to set it up, would be much nicer to have a skip. My issue is that on one of them I had to do things more than once, and for my second lock, I knew it all already and just wanted to set it up. C’mon Yale, allow the “Skip”.HomeKit INTEGRATION: There have been a lot of negative types of comments on this, which I don’t understand because I easily added each lock to HomeKit. Scanning of the HomeKit QR code did not work on either lock, this has been commented on a lot with this reviews. For me, I merely manually entered the device IDs and it worked immediately without issue. Granted, you cannot scan the QR which is easier for sure, but not enough to rank lower.All in all, a great purchase IMO, could use some improvements, but really good just the same. Lock Feature rating is 4 stars due to what I comment on, I just expected better, not sure if better is necessary. Tech support I rated 4 stars, this is not by dealing with a tech support staff, it was the only place to rate the app and the setup issues I discussed.

Love the ease of use
We love this lock. We live on the second floor in our home. I was continually going downstairs to check if the door was locked. Not anymore. Easy to use, I don’t have to worry about my door being left unlocked. I can check from my phone app. It locks quickly when I leave the house. I do not know why we waited so long.

Dangerous, overheats and terrible battery usage
*****Updated Review May 2024****Device errors and overheatsI bought this lock in Nov 2022 (so roughly 1.5 years now) and would highly discourage anyone buying this lock as it is dangerous and overheats.The battery issue has always been terrible on this product. It last maybe 1 months tops before needing replacement, so I’m constantly burning through batteries. A couple months ago, the lock was low on battery, so husband replaced it and then less then a week later the lock was again low on batteries. I thought perhaps my husband mixed up the double A batteries and put the low batteries back in by mistake and just let it be assuming it was a mistake.Just last week, the lock started giving error sounds that it wasn’t locked even though the door was locked and then indicated it was low battery, so I changed it. Again, less than a week later it was low battery and continued having errors. When I went to open the compartment to replace the battery, I could smell smoke, and when I removed the front 2 batteries, I could see that the top coil touching the battery was so hot it was glowing red. I immediately removed the rest of the batteries from the hot coil/device and burnt my finger with a small shock in the process.When I contacted Yale, they did a simple apology, didn’t care at all that I burnt my finger, that the device overheats or care to fix/understand why it was having potentially dangerous issues, but that the device is over a year old and since it was, out of warranty, and the most the can do is offer 20% discount on the next product. Such a terrible response. I will not be buying another product from them, especially if it puts me or my household in a potentially dangerous situation.********”When this works, it’s wonderful but due to the terrible battery life and finicky app I wouldn’t recommend it.Set up: not as straight forward and took a lot of trial and error. The app set up also wasn’t included and I had to call for them to tell me how to set it up since this was too new at the time.Battery: this thing just chews through batteries. I’ll need new batteries every month and there’s no way to see battery life. You get a warning sound when its almost dead and then within a day it’ll stop working and you won’t be able to lock your door from the outside unless you manually do it. Also, Everytime I put new batteries in it resets my connection to the app….App: laggy. I get booted everytime I put new batteries in.

No complaints so far! It’s worked perfectly 90% of the time.
We got the Yale smart lock to replace our regular keypad lock for our Airbnb. We wanted to be able to change the code between guests for more security as well as being able to deactivate codes on occasion. It took a little bit of time to set it up and install it, but I was able to do it alone. The location of our door is pretty far from the wifi router (though we do have an extender). Occasionally I get a notification that it has lost its wifi connection, but usually comes back up within a few minutes. I love the wifi feature because we can check it when we’re not at the house and also help a guest get in if they are having troubleââand we don’t even have to be in the same state!One reason I was led to purchase this particular lock is I thought that it would have automation with Airbnb to set codes for us. I tried forever to get it to work, and Yale doesn’t have the best support (and different support sites for different countries). So I never could get it to work (this was about 6 months ago). Well Airbnb just rolled out a new integration feature this week with this particular lock series, and let me tell you, it is a game changer! Airbnb will set and send codes for you, so no more manually doing it and sending the codes to guests! I’m so glad we ended up getting this one.

Nothing wrong with this unit, function as it should and the price was right. Have four (4) Schlage units and the code to open those is different. Itâs confusing sometimes. BUT thatâs our problem not Assure.

Ive bought several of these and what’s strange is some come with the wifi module and others don’t. You definitely need the wifi module in order to do any automation through certain software for the Airbnb automation. It’s been working great for me and I’m using Hospitable to link everything through my Yale account. Works flawlessly and haven’t had any issues at all.

Tenia cita con el carpintero para venir a instalar estas chapas de seguridad, hicieron las perforaciones en las puertas, instalaron el producto siguiendo todas las especificaciones y al momento de querer programar la chapa no conectaba con el celular después de 1 hora de las distintas formas de intento para registrar el producto en la aplicación. Terminamos marcamos a Yale Mexico para que nos dijeran que este producto no es compatible aqui en Mexico. Mi puerta tiene ya las perforaciones de acuerdo al tamaño de esta chapa y es un error que por no especificar yo tendré que absorber.

Lamentablemente opte por una cerradura Yale, solo puedo decir que no funciona en México, nunca se pudo activar y por ende no hay mas que decir, habrÃan de mencionar que hay cosas que simplemente no van a funcionar en territorio mexicano y que solo trabajan y tienen respaldo en el paÃs de origen, que en este caso es de EUA.
