Yale YRD226NR0BP Touchscreen Deadbolt Bronze Finish Lock

It works as advertised

It Works well for 5 years after that I had to buy new one

I got this because I'm tired of losing my keys or having to worry about keys while walking my dogs. It was super easy to install, looks super pretty on the outside and inside the door, and does everything it says it should. Now the bridge works “okay”, every once in a while I get a notice that my wifi got disconnected, but it immediately reconnects. I like that I can remotely open the door for people and give them temporary codes as I please. I just use my Apple Watch to tell Siri to unlock the door for me and it plays a nice little jingle as it unlocks to welcome me home :). I liked it so much I bought another one.

This product has two parts - lock from Yale and module/hub from August. Switching out the Yale lock was easy and simple, by just following the video instructions. The August module and hub setup is slightly confusing but can be achieved by following the August app instructions closely. For me most confusing was the module registration. If you don't do that, it won't work (lot of people might have faced this). Another fopaux to avoid, is to ensure the deadbolt and strike plate are aligned and work well as they can cause issues in functioning later. Once setup is complete, it works like a charm and August integration with Amazon Alexa or Google Home is relatively easy.

Lock worked great and was easy to install. Unfortunately, the rubber gasket was wrinkled in the box and it required manipulation to get it to work, although still not perfect. Otherwise, I would have ranked it a 5 star product

This lock is pretty amazing over all. Easy to install and comes with step by step manual on how to add and remove key codes. I use this for an investment rental property. No more making new keys when bad tenants move out. You just have to remove their key code access. I use this with the Ring door bell to give me that extra piece of mind. However there is one issue that I haven't had time to resolve and that's the option to master control from my phone. It doesn't seem to work. I tried following the steps and youtube as well but mine won't connect to allow remote access from phone.

The battery runs out every 3 or 4 days, the electronic board of the yale cannot be calibrated and I am still waiting for the replacement. I do not recommend this Yale smart lock

First couple days Auto Unlock worked great. Now it hasn't worked in the last 2 weeks. Pretty bummed. Also when it auto locks there is a weird clicking sound like 3-4 times

My lock is three years old and failed. I did all the troubleshooting and was informed by yale that the only thing they could do was sell me a new one at 20% off as their warranty was only for 2 years. I work in product development so here's what they're really doing; they're making at least a 40% margin going to retail with retailers charging another 30-40%. Since this is direct, they get all that extra margin as well and the cost is mostly profit. In short, they're selling a product they know is going to break and then trying to make you feel like they're helping by selling you another and still making 60% of their profit margin. Then when it breaks again, they profit again! It's like a hidden subscription! I'll never buy another Yale product again. If you want to deal with all that, we liked it.

Purchased brand new lock April 2023. 3 years later lock is in perfect condition but just stops making any sounds when activated or used. Through all tests have come firm inner speaker is still good but something is wrong with board where it no longer makes any sounds during usage. No big deal right? Well if you want to manually program codes or anything all the voice prompts are gone. The only way I can program anything is through the app. The product lasted exactly 3 years. Now they offer a 20% discount to replace it.
