Yale Smart Door Locks

What is a smart lock?

Remember all those times you left without locking the front door or locked your keys inside and had to call a locksmith? Leave lockouts, hide-a-keys and worries behind with help from a smart door lock. Grant access to expected and unexpected visitors from work, the store or on the beach, watch your door automatically unlock when you arrive with an armful of groceries and use your companion app to keep track of who’s coming and going at all times.

Just like you can ease into each day by asking Alexa or Google™ to report on the news or weather, you can also say “goodnight” to your voice assistant to automatically switch off your lights, adjust the thermostat and lock the door, all while you’re getting tucked into bed for the night.

How do smart locks work?

Choose the smart locks that work best for you and your family. Keyless-entry door locks work via a touchpad, key fob or sensor that knows when you’re approaching, and electronic door locks provide the option for both key and keyless access. With some locks, you can hand out family passwords to your kids for when they get home from school and temporary passcodes to the pet sitter while you’re on vacation.

With seamless connectivity, automation is simple. Like other smart devices, some smart locks connect via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth® and others use a networking hub with technologies like Zigbee and Z-Wave to communicate. Find a smart lock that works with the smart home devices, motion detectors and surveillance systems you currently have.
