No se puede configurar en Mexico. este tipo de cerradura YRD450 solo es compatible con la App Yale Access que solo se puede instalar en US/Canada

We’ve had a basement unit for years that we either let family stay in or rent out, and for the longest time, we stuck with a traditional key. I know, I know — I’m old school, I still have a Hotmail account and write checks at the grocery store (just kidding, sarcasm).I honestly don’t know why it took us so long to upgrade, but my husband found the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch Deadbolt. He’s tech-savvy and installed it faster than it’s taking me to write this review. And even though I’m a bit of a tech idiot, I can actually use it without any issues!If you’re looking for a modern, easy-to-use upgrade for your door, this one’s a winner — it’s secure, sleek, and honestly, even I can handle it.

No funciona en México!!! Increíble que lo vendan en un país en donde no se puede usar.. hice toda una puesta alrededor de esta cerradura y al momento de instalar, sorpresa!! No funciona!!

The Yale lock is a perfect example of bad engineering. The lock is beautiful looking, with a very clean design, but has some horrible issues that make it impossible to recommend.Issue #1 - Yale breaks the whole concept of Apple's Home app with this design. With Apple Home, we often share our Home to family members when they housesit or are staying at our house. All of our 80+ accessories work flawlessly, EXCEPT Yale. This is a problem when unlocking the front door is a critical requirement for housesitting. For these family members, the door lock in the Home app says "SETUP NEEDED". It turns out this is because Yale requires anyone using the Home app to also have the Yale app installed, to personally have enabled Home sharing between Yale & Home apps, and to be a FULL ADMINISTRATOR in the Yale app. The point of the Home app is I can avoid using these third-party apps, and that I can share access without requiring everyone else to install these third-party apps. And, no, I don't want my mother or cousin to be an administrator in Home or Yale, with the ability to remove accessories or change critical settings. This is bad, insecure design and incredibly frustrating.Issue #2 - Fingerprints. I bought this more expensive model because the idea of a TouchID-like experience for my front door sounds wonderful. However, the setup process is incredibly error-prone, with the lock often flashing red and the app showing an error message when trying to setup fingerprints. Yale's helpful support article suggests you factory reset the lock when you get the error message (thanks!) even though it requires complete re-setup of the entire lock, and even though the error message eventually goes away if you re-attempt a few times per day until it works. Even once fingerprints are registered, for most family members it works less than 50% of the time, and I appear to be the only one who considers using my fingerprint an option. WORST OF ALL, the fingerprints disappear from the lock once every time you change the batteries (which is more often than the advertising suggests), but the app will tell you that they're still registered. So you first have to unregister each fingerprint, and then re-register each fingerprint, multiple times per year! And again, this process will likely take several days to complete, with you entire family frustrated throughout the process and telling you that you wasted hundreds of dollars on a complete piece of crap, and can we please just go back to using a physical key again, it was so much simpler.Issue #3 – Battery life. Even though we don't use our front door super often, and even though we have strong WiFi signal at the front door, and even though we purchase high quality batteries, the battery life is pitiful, and we have to change them about twice as often as the manual suggests. Rechargeable batteries are not allowed (and will immediately flag a low-battery warning), so this lock is bad for the environment as an energy-hungry device that requires the frequent disposal of AA batteries in a home where we otherwise use 100% rechargeable batteries. But the most annoying part is that this necessitates the fingerprint issue mentioned above.Issue #4 – Entry code sensitivity. Compared to the prior model of Yale HomeKit lock which we used at our last house, this model is very finicky when it comes to entering the entry codes to unlock the door. I typically have to enter the code 2-3 times to get it to register. This is due in part to two poor design choices: the backlit numbers are dimly backlist, making it a bit hard to see them in direct sunlight; and the sound when tapping in the numbers is very quiet, making it hard to hear when you have tapped successfully on a number. Between these two features, it's quite easy to mis-type the code.At this point I'm on the lookout for a replacement device. I personally love the idea of not having a keyslot on the front door, but I may have to give up on this preference for the sake of getting a more functional smart deadbolt in a house full of otherwise mostly flawless home accessories.

No es como la nest yale, esa si es buena, tras la separación de nest la interfaz es mala, pero lo peor es que ya no se cierra sola aunque la calibres...

This lock will unlock by itself without notice. You will come home to an unlocked door. This lock would unlock every day around the same time. When I checked the application on my phone, I saw that the locked door was now unlocked. That was after my wife came home to an unlocked door. "NOT COOL".

Este dispositivo requiere un app que no se puede descargar en México. Porque venderlo entonces!?

It’s been about a month so long enough to do a decent review. It’s my front door lock so obviously gets used several times a day. My favorite part is how the fingerprint works. It’s spot on every time. Also Alexa interface is important to me because of recent back issue leave me with lots of pain and little mobility. So to tell Alexa open the door is a big help. Speaking of Alexa, I had my eye on this lock but thought it was a bit pricey. So I went with a lower end knock off. Actually it was a very stout system but the most important part to me was Alexa access. It was advertised as Alexa compatible but it never worked once. It would just twirl if you did it in the app and if you spoke to Alexa she would say the lock doesn’t exist. Laying out the extra cash to get the Yale lock was the right thing to do. I’m going to purchase a second one for my back door. This leaves me one exterior door that is still keyed. Just in case both decide to lock me out! One more thing. The jury is still out on battery life. After about 3 weeks I had to replace the ones that came with it. However I did miss the calibration step when I set it up and the manual says if not calibrated right it can eat batteries. I will come back to this review if I have more to say about that.

Had the Assure Lock for more than 3 years with no issue. When this fingerprint model came out, I made the switch. Ordered during Black Friday sale and got it delivered in early December. Installed it and was working well, until yesterday. Just slightly more than 2 months since installation, I got locked out of my house. Nothing worked. HomeKit, Yale app, PIN, fingerprint. Thought perhaps the battery died, tried a 9V to the pins on the outside of the lock, doesn’t work either. Waited for an hour to try, still couldn’t get anything to work. To only way was to get a locksmith to drill through the lock, and in the process getting it destroyed. I suspect the front panel facing outward was faulty, and caused everything to stopped working. Once the locksmith severed the connection to the front panel by cutting the wire, the back panel with the single button worked miraculously. Somehow it reconnected via Yale app and HomeKit, and batteries proved to be still working as the motor still worked. However at this stage, the front panel was already destroyed since I was locked out of the house. Although the first gen was good, I have totally lost faith in this 2nd gen product. Be wary when purchasing this product.

La app Yale Home para iOS en la versión disponible en México no reconoce el dispositivo. Al parecer es un problema generalizado ya que hay varios casos similares reportados en el App Store. La única respuesta es que hay que contactar a soporte técnico que está en Costa Rica y que no ofrece servicio más que por correo electrónico. ¡Lamentable!

Este producto no funciona en México. Este cerrojo necesita la app “Yale access”, pero esa aplicación solo está disponible en la App Store de Estados Unidos. Para México existe “Yale Home”, pero al momento de intentar registrar este modelo, arroja un error “No Devices Found”, del cual es imposible seguir. Intenté muchas veces, de verdad no compren este producto a menos que tengan acceso a la app de Estados Unidos, y aún así no me arriesgaría. Pésimo.
