Yale Security Electronic Push Button Deadbolt Fully Motorized with Zwave Technology, Polished Brass

Straight forward installation. Programming a bit challenging. This lock works great. This lower cost model doesn't include the wifi card for connecting to a home network but it can be added later. So far battery life is excellent, daily operation problem free. If you bungle the code three times in a row the lock locks you out for a minute. The control panel and casing look and feel great. Important that after installation the locking mechanism moves freely. If the hole on the edge of the door was not drilled perfectly straight the lock may have to be mounted at a slight angle to compensate. In other words, when you look at the lock from the outside or inside the rectangular lock may not be perfectly straight up and down. With my old round mechanical deadbolt the skew was not noticeable (because the lock face was round). If you try to force the Yale to be vertically aligned it may put pressure on the deadbolt slider making it hard to lock and unlock. This will not work with a battery operated lock. It must have zero resistance when you turn the handle on the inside to lock it or the motor will work too hard and the battery life and reliability of the lock will be compromised. Note: I live in an older home with nonstandard doors. You should not have this issue with pre-drilled new doors..

Lock was easy to install (directions however could be better with some text rather than just pictures) and connected very easily with my alarm.com security system via z-wave. I have the IQ Panel 2Plus interface which connected with the lock in a few seconds. Installation and programming together took less than 15 minutes. Excellent build quality and very nice to look at when installed!

I wanted to switch my deadbolt for a keypad so that I never had to worry about locking myself out of the house. I also was excited about being able to give codes to contractors or dog walkers on a temporary basis. One other bonus I have found with having this lock is that I can start my car on cold winter mornings and go back in the house for a while and not worry about fumbling with detaching my house key from my car key. A poor man's remote car starter as it were.This was very easy to install, it fit exactly in the deadbolt holes after I removed my deadbolt. I had first purchased the Schlage version but it stuck too far out from the door and prevented my storm door from closing. This one has a much narrower profile so it does not interfere with my door. The construction is very solid. The only issue I had is sometimes the lock would stick when opening it from the inside occasionally but another reviewer said that I may have over tightened the screws when installing it.I have had it for about 6 weeks now and it is working really well. When I first installed it, I had it set to play a sound when the keys were pressed and I also had it set to autolock. I have since turned these two features off because they were not as helpful as I had thought. The key pad is lighted and will flash when you press the keys so I prefer that over playing a note. The autolock will turn the bolt whether the door is open or closed so that became more of a burden than it was worth. It's easy enough to press 1 to lock the door after we are all outside.It is very easy to program and delete numbers, but not so easy that I have memorized it. I do it infrequently enough that I have to pull out the directions every time, but they are easy to follow.I have had several people complement me on the lock and one even asked for the name of my Locksmith so they could get one installed. "Amazon and Myself" was my reply.Update Aug 2018: I've had this lock installed since Dec 2015 on the main door that is used everyday and the lithium batteries are still going strong. I have both autolock and the sound turned off, but I am impressed that the batteries are still going strong considering how often it has locked and unlocked itself in the last 2-1/2 years.

Works great. Highly recommend

It looks good and works as a standalone lock, but the ZWAVE does not work with any hub.Here is what their customer service told me:This is a discontinued lock model that is only compatible with a Translucent Gren Z-Wave Module. However, the ATT Z-Wave module is no longer compatible with your lock because ATT has discontinued the service with this module. This is why you are unable to establish a connection for the setup of your lock.Do not buy this if you want a ZWAVE lock.

This is a great replacement lock if your z wave lock is getting old and tarnish,, just pull your Z wave module from old lock and you are good to go..This lock comes with a at&t wave module in it..My at&t system was changed to Brink in the sellout... this lock works great...I added another one of these to my garage door and it programed easily into my Brinks system...You can't go wrong at this low price..I got 12 years out of one of these Yale locks and only replaced it because of tarnish..The Yale key will Fit into Kwick set locks,, so you can get the rekeyable easy key kick set locks and have all your doors on 1key..

I bought this lock even though it doesn't have any newer bells and whistles. It is a couple of steps above the mechanical lock that you have to operate using a key. That is good enough for me primarily due to the deep discount on these locks right now.Lock was new, even though the package was open, and the batteries were removed. Apparently, they were so old that the batteries started leaking within the packaging. That is probably the reason for the deep discount.My previous keypad deadbolt only had an actuator to engage/disengage the deadbolt. So, you will have to physically turn the knob. Because of that design, the 9V battery lasted a very long time. In this Yale lock, there is no knob to turn; it will extend and withdraw the deadbolt. I am not sure how long the AA batteries last if they have to perform the deadbolt operation.Installation was fairly easy. It looks good. We are happy with the product and we would recommend it.
