Yale Assure YRD256-CBA-619

I put this lock on my front door and it took me several weeks to do it. If you do it just right it might take only a few hours. Putting the Yale lock on is fairly straight forward but there can be problems. We have a fairly new house and had been using a deadlock for years and did not expect an alig...

Easy to install. The keypad looks and works very nicely. The locking mechanism seems to work well. BUT, the August integration is a nightmare. There are no less than three (3) different apps you can install in various materials provided in the box.. One just gives you online instructions and product...

Wouldn’t buy again. When leaving door open, sometimes the deadbolt will trigger from the slightest touch of the door. This causes the deadbolt to hit the frame when closing. Also, the app setup was seriously frustrating. I co softer myself a tech guy. There’s multiple apps referenced in the document...

The lock works fine for a few months at a time but the battery dies frequently and there are regular connection issues with Wi-Fi. For some thing as critical as our front door lock these issues aren’t acceptable and we’ve decided to replace the lock.

The lock will auto lock when you walk past it or brush up against it. The numbers are very difficult to read in bright sunlight. When you install it make sure the screws are not too tight or the lock will not function correctly

For the August/Yale integration the initial setup appears to be designed by someone who said let’s make this as confusing as possible. TLDR: Instructions reference 3 different apps (Bilt, Yale Access, August), setup requires ignoring picture from August app and scrolling down. App freezes during set...

I did a lot of research before purchasing this lock. My criteria for the lock was: 1) A digital keypad in case I do not have my phone with me 2) Geofencing so that it will detect when I’m approaching the door and automatically unlock 3) WiFi and internet connectivity so that I can remotely lock or u...

The Yale Assure Lock SL YRD256-CBA ultimately seems to be a good lock for me to monitor and control my front door. My house is pre-wired with sensors at every door and window and they all work except for the front door. My goal was to add the front door to Home Assistant and I found that HA has supp...

I put a lot of time into finding a lock with all the features I want. This one had the most out of any I could find. The only thing missing is biometric entry. It would be nice to not have to trust my kids to not give away their codes. But that's a review for another place. PROS The design is sleek ...

I’ve installed quite a few keypad locks, including the Nest Yale. This one has been the worst, hands down, to install. The included instructions are garbage, a legal-size sheet that doesn’t cover the smart functions. The app, too, is garbage, wanting a QR code which it fails to scan, or the serial n...
