After going hands-on with the Yale AssureLock 2, it's clear that this smartlock doesn't cut any corners.
The Assure Lock 2 is the newest edition to Yale’s lineup of smart locks. It’s the follow-up to the original, well-reviewed Assure Lock, and so far, it seems to be hitting all the right notes.
One of the coolest parts of the Key-Free Assure Lock 2 is the ability to charge the device from outside your home if the battery dies. Like the old Assure Lock, pressing a standard 9V battery to the terminals on the bottom of the unit will give it enough juice to get you inside should its batteries die while you’re out of town. Considering there’s no physical key you can use to bypass a dead battery, it’s comforting to know that dead batteries won’t lock you out of your home.
Everything about the smart lock is powered by the Yale Access smartphone app. When loading the app, the first thing you’ll see is an indicator letting you know whether the door is open or closed, locked or unlocked. From this main screen, you can navigate to a second tab that shows you the door’s activity — which could be useful while you’re on vacation or if you want to check that your kids are making it home before curfew.
Navigating all these options is intuitive. Yale has somehow managed to pack dozens of features into the app without succumbing to a bloated design or overwhelming UI. In fact, using the smart lock, setting up profiles, and customizing its performance is even easier than the installation process. We’ll see if that trend continues as I dive deeper into its settings and submenus in the coming weeks.
