Our verdict

A keypad deadbolt for homes that already run a Z-Wave hub such as SmartThings or Ring Alarm. Without a compatible hub its smart features are off, leaving code and key entry only.

Overview

Homeowners on a Z-Wave smart home or alarm system get a motorized deadbolt they can open with a code or through their hub's app. The Yale Assure replaces an existing deadbolt using the current door holes, with a backlit touchscreen outside and a quiet motor driving the bolt.

Keyless entry plus remote control through an existing Z-Wave system is the reason to install it, and it fits a standard deadbolt prep with just a screwdriver. Yale provides no app of its own for this model, so every remote feature depends on the hub and app you already use.

Who it's for

Front and back doors in homes already running SmartThings, Ring Alarm or a similar Z-Wave controller benefit most. Shoppers wanting Wi-Fi control without a hub should look at a different lock.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Code entry on a backlit touchscreen
  • Auto relock option
  • Reuses existing deadbolt holes
  • Quiet motorized bolt
Cons
  • Requires a separate Z-Wave hub
  • No Yale app for this model
  • Features vary by Z-Wave controller
  • Electronics warranty shorter than mechanical

Performance notes

The motor drives a standard deadbolt throw, so smooth locking depends on the bolt lining up with the strike without binding. Remote commands pass through the Z-Wave hub, which means controller support decides which features show up in your app. Batteries power everything, and the lock warns when they run low.

Frequently asked questions

Does installing the Yale Assure YRD226 need new holes in the door?

No. It replaces an existing deadbolt on standard doors with just a screwdriver and no additional holes, and mounting hardware is included.

Does the Yale Assure Z-Wave lock work without a hub?

Remote lock and unlock and Alexa control require a compatible Z-Wave hub sold separately, and there is no Yale app for this lock. Smart features need a compatible system.

What happens if the Yale Assure batteries die?

The lock alerts you when batteries are getting low, and the 2 included physical keys open it as a backup.

Which hubs work with the Yale Assure Z-Wave lock?

Yale names Samsung SmartThings, Ring Alarm and Wink as examples. Features may vary based on the Z-Wave controller.
