Yale R-YRD256-CBA-619 Assure Lock SL Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Touchscreen Deadbolt

Before I had just august, with keypad, and connect. Very sketching and went through batteries like crazy. Half the time it would not work or connect with Bluetooth. So I upgraded and purchased tge yale lock with keypad, keyless, wifi, and Bluetooth with connect. Since I purchased, I have not had any connection issues and works great.

It's Great! Sleek design and better than earlier generations. Brushed nickel finish fits perfectly with our door and haven't had any problems (yet) with battery life like on our previous generation Yale Nest lock. Assure 2 is the way to go.

Super awesome Wi-Fi and bluetooth deadbolt system. I have installed this deadbolt lock on my front door and the instllation wasn't that much of a pain. Yale provides some very useful tutorial videos that walk you through the install process. I was able to get this deadbolt lock system up in running in about 45 minutes. I really like that this system has Alexa built-in so that I can ask Alexa to lock or unlock the front door. It will also unlock the front door as I approach it as long as I have my phone with me. Overall I have been very happy with this system It was easy to install and it is very easy to use. Overall I would highly recommend this Yale Assure Lock system.

The main feature that sets this lock apart from the competition is a working auto-unlock / auto-lock feature based on a geofence around your home. This is a big time saver. It works well with the Connected by August WiFi version. Installation is fairly straightforward, this replaces your existing deadbolt and it's only slightly more complicated than installing any other deadbolt. No Specialty tools required and DIY friendly. The outside keypad looks beautiful, the inside box is a bit clunky looking because it has to hold the batteries and electronics. Works great and gives peace of mind knowing when your door is opened and by whom.

Attractive and has a heavy, solid feel. Directions are for the base model and if you added a module it'll look like you have items which aren't on the parts list. Don't panic; you just have to rely on the app for info on how to add the WiFi/BT module. Also note (not in the directions) that you have to take a battery out, install the module, then put the battery back in. Physical installation pretty straightforward, although I would prefer the bolt have more of a taper to lessen the chance of it hanging up on the strike plate. Would buy again.

This items is the z-wave version, which means that you cannot change the codes remotely nor do you have access to the Yale Access App. you need to connect this device to a smart home hub like a ring system. This was not detailed anywhere in the details on the item. It works well and is easy to install in the door, but we really wanted to fundtion which allowed us to change codes remotely.

Go with Z-Wave version if you can. It provides a more reliable internet connection and integrates perfectly. This August version was more difficult to set up and connect to my WiFi. The Lock is very simple to install, but the August / Yale app were not reliable and the wireless module needs to be within 15 ft or less for it to work. Connecting to Apple Home Kit was a pain and not reliable. Replaced this with a Z-Wave model and everything works perfectly.

I cannot get this lock to work remotely and it's so frustrating. My codes for rental clients aren't working, it works well with the master code or if my phone is close by.

One of my orignal Yale locks stopped working after a year. I spent hours trying to reestablish a wifi connection. This new Yale Assure lock works with a different app so codes must all be added separately. Very frustrating and inconvenient.

I requested a black and a oil Bronze was sent. I tried to call to change, sent email and nobody replied. I had to use the wrong one. I found out after that black was sold out.
