Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The lock is very easy to install and the instructions are clear and straightforward. After installing so many of these, it takes me less than 2 minutes to do these steps as well. The printed install instructions are pretty good and enough to install t...  Read More

One downside is that the lock is powered by batteries. It includes the required four aa batteries, and i suggest replacing them with lithium ion batteries when they expire.

The lock works well and as advertised. Mechanism is quieter than previous electronic locks we've used. Love how quiet and smooth it locks.



Cons

To say our experience with yale is a disappointment is a major understatement. This lock is terrible. Completely unacceptable. Absolutely, terrible experience.

The lock's software is flaky. Those bridges only connect on 2. Gh networks and regularly disconnects. The lock rin also fails.

Quality


These are by fast best looking, quality, nice product.

Competitiveness

We have all brands and all sorts of electronic locks on our airbnb’s etc.

Previous lock was a kwikset electronic lock from home depot that was very loud.
