Home Key Smart Lock with (Almost) Everything: Yale Assure Lock 2 Review!

Yale Assure Lock 2 Plus has (almost) everything: HomeKey integration, allowing unlocking with iPhone or Apple Watch, numeric keypad, and battery backup, but its confusing models make it a tough sell.

Great video. Thank you for clarify all the version of this model. I were so confused when I were looking for this lock. I got your video showing me these version.

[@myHomeKithome]

Always nice to see another HomeKey lock. I'm not too concerned about its lack of a fingerprint scanner since it, and most other manufacturers, put them in awkward positions that are either not very intuitive or not very ergonomic. Beautiful video as always!

[@beardfm]

Thanks for saying so! And I do like the fingerprint scanner, but Home Key works so well on this one I'm good without it.

[@jamadail]

Immediately after reading the title in my mind a voice started "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer and what I have for you today..."

[@beardfm]

I need to collab with him 😅

[@Floormat212]

But what if there is no lock to pick?? 😆

[@ivana6141]

Had to watch 10 reviews until I found the battery failure feature. Thanks.

[@travisloafman3162]

Great review! Very helpful. I'm wondering what the practical benefit of Home Key over fingerprint would be?

[@beardfm]

Thanks! HomeKey can be shared with other users in your home, and I find tapping my Apple Watch to be faster and more reliable than fingerprint on most locks.

[@MatthewMacknamara]

Thank you for the video. It helped me make the purchase. After installing the YAL2+ it does appear not to have the full implementation of HomeKit as you pointed out in your video. From watching your Aquaria U100 video I can see that there are options for creating access codes for different people. This is also standard HomeKit functionality, yet it is missing on the YAL2+. I do hope that they include this. It would also be great to be able to install the lock natively with HomeKit and not use the Yale app altogether, which as I discovered after buying the lock doesn't work in Australia (we are using a different Yale Home app). I did manage to download a US version of the app on a spare phone, but it is not ideal. I'll keep the YAL2+ as the U100 is too bulky for my door. If anyone does get word of an upgrade to HomeKit it would be good to know!

[@beardfm]

Thanks for watching, and sorry for the confusion! I thought I mentioned the PIN code feature missing from HomeKit, but it’s frustrating it doesn’t work like other HomeKit locks

[@robmat88]

Amazing review!!!! You answered all my questions about this lock and the main difference about the other 2 yale aasure lock 2 models. I hope you have a review for the Schlage encode plus, which is the other option I’m thinking since we want apple key in our new smart lock.

[@beardfm]

Thank you! And I review it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/emGmf2Wsl7-MoNUsi=xoXwHuHzSURWnFtt

[@JamesCunha]

The door sensor I think is essential, although I also have door sensor (aqara), the yale door sensor prevents the lock to auto lock if the door is still open.

[@beardfm]

Ah that’s good to know. Just didn’t want to have to inset something into the door frame

[@JordanJamison]

Always happy to see more HomeKit locks hitting the market. A very strange observation... the Yale app is absolutely identical to the one that August uses. Are they owned by the same company? Maybe outsourced their apps to the same developer? Very strange indeed.

[@beardfm]

Actually, both August and Yale were acquired by Assa Abloy, so it may very well be the same app with different brands.

[@chronoszin]

Yes, and you can use both apps. I have the Yale Assure Lock 2 but I use the August app, because I had an August lock before.

[@eyediyah1394]

Great video! Quick question, is HomePod necessary for you to share home key access to others via HomeKit? Because, I tried to add others to my HomeKit but I’m unable to. Apple said I likely need HomePod to connect to my Yale lock. Any response will be helpful. Thanks!

[@beardfm]

Hey thanks! Do you have an Apple TV in the house? You do need to have the Home app setup with a home hub, either an TV or HomePod to share Home Keys

[@eyediyah1394]

@@beardfm thanks for the reply! I’ll definitely get an Apple HomePod now. Love your vids. Keep it up!!

[@Meaderf]

Have you had to change the batteries yet on this Yale lock? I just bought the Bluetooth version like you did. Fingers crossed.

[@richarda3764]

Yeah, this is what I want to know. If the Bluetooth model lasts a lot longer, than I for sure would skip the wifi.

[@carolineyoung4153]

Stephen: Trying to decide between wifi and bluetooth models. Have heard horror stories about the battery life if using the wifi model. Thoughts? Thx!

[@beardfm]

If you plan on using either HomeKit, I’d go Bluetooth only. Home app gives you remote access anyway, and my battery life seems to at 10% use per month, which is pretty good

[@jap2k5]

Love your review, what I would like to know is if you already have a Yale Smart lock with a Wi-Fi hub do you really need another one?

[@beardfm]

Thanks! I’m not familiar with that brand but the main reason to upgrade would be Home Key access

[@jap2k5]

@@beardfm sorry I meant Yale 🤦🏾‍♂️.

[@Bengomez02]

I purchased the touch keyless version with Bluetooth and WiFi thinking it will work on ring but it does not. I looked at Yale’s website and their z-Waze plus module says it’s not capable with the Yale 450-F module. So there’s no way I can get this to work on the Ring app?

[@beardfm]

No, sorry it will not work like that.

[@BlackKara]

Do you have to use am app or sensor? My apartment just installed these and I really would rather less surveillance... They went with the no key version qq

[@beardfm]

You can just use the pin pad, but that still needs to be programmed via the app

I have been using HomeKit and Chamberlain garage for years but they have stopped using HomeKit. Now I have to go an extra step and use MyQ app to open garage but can’t unlock my Yale lock or turn on certain lights now. 1st world problem. Any suggestions?

Nice video. I have the Yale Assure Lock 2 and looking to update to the Plus version with HomeKey. Do you know if I have to use HomeKit to use the HomeKey? And if yes, do you know if I have to have a remote support for HomeKit? Do I need a hub? Because I don't really use HomeKit but would like to have the option to use the HomeKey for this lock. Thanks.

[@beardfm]

Thanks! And you do need to pair the lock with HomeKit in order to use Home Key. But you can start with an HomePod mini, Apple TV, or big HomePod!

[@kingriel1237]

Does the Yale assure lock 2 have homekey feature or do I have to get the Yale assure 2 Plus? I’m not sure what the difference between the two are can you explain

[@Floormat212]

Any firmware updates for this one to fix the Person Code issue? So you can add directly from Homekit.

[@beardfm]

I haven't seen firmware updates to fix that yet, unfortunately. Home Key works across family members though.

[@Salty_Collector]

Purchased this lock based on your review. Had to change the batteries every week. Owned this lock for 3 weeks and one day it completely died and crapped out on me. Didn’t work at all after troubleshooting it. Complete crap would not recommend. Going with the aqara lock instead. More features and not as expensive.

[@beardfm]

I'm sorry that was your experience! Your issues here are exactly what I'm experiencing with the Aqara U100 right now. Changing the batteries every month, auto-locking by itself, etc. Hope you have better luck!

[@eysan90]

Thanks for this. Been wanting to look into a smart lock for a while. I wish this had a key though. What happens if your WiFi is out or you don’t have that backup battery?

[@beardfm]

Well Wi-Fi being out won’t matter as it can unlock using NFC (Home Key). If the batteries in the lock are dead and you don’t have a 9V…maybe a trip to the nearest Walgreens 😅 the Aqara U100 I mentioned, Level Lock, and Schlage encode are also Home Key enabled locks with a physical key option

[@eysan90]

@@beardfm cool thanks

[@SomeHyena]

Hey there, wanted to ask what you saw in battery life for the lock. I got mine (with the Wi-Fi module) installed back in mid Feb and it seemed to have proper battery life till like mid May before it started giving me the low battery noise. I let it run till the batteries drained all the way but another month on low power and it was causing the lock to not operate properly at times. But wanted to ask if you saw the same three months or more (assuming you never did get the Wi-Fi module since you made this video). I don’t think I’ll get rid of the Wi-Fi module, just curious. And also, if you happen to go that in depth, did you use alkaline, lithium, or rechargeable batteries?

[@beardfm]

Hey there! I use alkaline (amazon brand) and my Yale 2 has been on the same batteries since I made this video! (Months ago). Haven't changed yet. No wifi module, added.

[@SomeHyena]

@@beardfm epic! I guess that Wi-Fi do be draining that power tho. But thanks for the reply!

[@artprz4073]

Does the WiFi module on my assure lock 1 work for this assure lock 2 plus?

[@beardfm]

It does! Says it here in the description: amzn.to/47FSYXY

[@christinehollis4048]

Our family's contractor just changed out a front door and we need a new entry set. Since the house is a shared family house and occasionally needs service and repair people to enter, we'd like to use a keypad that remotely allows entry for a short time. I'm unfamiliar with technology but willing to learn. Our contractor initially directed us to Emtek hardware, which offers EMpowered motorized touchscreen smart keypad with Yale Access App. Is there any chance you know that this entry set would allow for short term access from far away?

[@beardfm]

If you get the Wi-Fi module from the Yale lock (linked in description), you can add temporary codes like remotely!

[@TerraMagnus]

I’m looking forward to Matter over Thread smart locks. Better interoperability, longer battery life. Bliss.

[@angeljaimes3277]

Amazing….. excellent video thanks for sharing, this is the lock I’m been waiting for, with the finger print….. just one question can I unlock it using my voice ( Siri ) ….

[@beardfm]

Siri is a complicated method. If you ask an Apple Watch, it’ll unlock. Ask your iPhone while it’s unlocked, that’ll work too. If you ask a HomePod, you’ll need to confirm on your iPhone

[@angeljaimes3277]

[@TsunamiBob]

Stephen, I don't see the option in HomeKit to share my keys or grant access. Was this feature yanked by Apple? or Yale? I am on the latest iOS with an iPhone 13 Pro.

[@beardfm]

You actually have to invite someone to the entire home as a resident in order to share.

[@TsunamiBob]

[@chuvi23]

If I buy it, can I set it up directly in the Apple home app or do I need to set up on the Yale app first and then the Apple home app?

[@pureelegance3]

Which app do I download? Yale access or is there an Apple home app??

If you have any of the Yale smart locks you can program it to unlock as soon as you get home. When I pull into the garage it unlocks. No need for home key or finger print reader.

Why do you like this better than the Aqara U100?

[@beardfm]

After having the U100 for a while, the battery life has been atrocious for me, needing new batteries every month. The voice assistant comes on randomly even after I've turned it off in the Aqara app, and it auto-locks randomly without my prompting. I'm not sure I can recommend the U100 going forward.

[@JustinWinchester]

I bought this lock and had nothing but problems. I tried for TWO full days to get Home Key to work with no success. I even exchanged it for a new one, same problem. I’ve worked in IT for over 20 years, and I have tons of HomeKit gear. I talked with Yale and Apple with no lock. I switched to the Aqara U100 and have it worked right away. Such a better lock with more features, Home Key, keypad, fingerprint, and key.

[@beardfm]

Sorry you had that many issues with it! Honestly I have more issues with the number keypad not registering taps as consistently as I'd like, but Home Key was the one solid feature in my experience.

[@MasterMrx]

i only have it for 4 days and Homekey set up and worked perfect. i did go into phone and make sure express Mode was on. Maybe that was your issue.

You lot in the USA have a load of choice for smart locks. In the UK/Europe we have very different and more secure door locks which are very very difficult to control electronically. There are basically no options in the UK for the most common type of door lock (multipoint lock with Eurolock cylinder).

Sorry to hear that. Are there *any* HomeKit options, let alone home key?

[@MikeWarner75]

@@beardfm literally nothing. If I wanted a smart lock of any type I’d have to buy a whole new door and door frame - while probably sacrificing security. 🙁 The issue is that our common multipoint locking doors need you to lift the door handle to engage the 3 or 4 latches around the door, then a key is turned to lock them in place and deploy a bolt. It is the lifting up of the handle which makes things difficult for smart locks.

If you are a user of Apple products, you have an iPhone and there's a good chance you have an Apple Watch as it is the biggest selling watch in the world.

No company gave me any lock, I purchased them all myself. But to be frank, the Aqara U100 has been the most buggy and unreliable. Battery life is terrible, dying almost every month.
