Our verdict

A smooth keyless deadbolt for iPhone households that want tap-to-unlock with Apple Home Key. Sharing home keys and remote HomeKit control need an Apple home hub.

Overview

IPhone and Apple Watch owners get a deadbolt that opens with a tap of the phone or watch from the Wallet app, plus a keypad for everyone else. Built-in Wi-Fi links it to the Yale Access app for remote access and alerts.

Tap-to-unlock with Express Mode works even when the phone needs a charge, thanks to power reserve. Getting the full Apple experience, such as more than one home key user and remote HomeKit control, depends on an Apple TV or HomePod set up as a home hub.

Who it's for

Families already using iPhones, Apple Watches and a HomePod or Apple TV get keyless taps, Siri control and shared codes. Homes without Apple devices lose the main feature and should consider a fingerprint or keypad lock.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Tap to unlock from Apple Wallet
  • Works when the iPhone battery is low
  • Wi-Fi built in for remote access
  • Unique keypad codes per guest
Cons
  • Home Key needs recent Apple devices
  • Apple home hub needed for sharing
  • Sold only for US and Canada

Performance notes

Home Key relies on the phone's NFC tap at the lock, so it works at the door without network access. Remote control runs through Wi-Fi to the Yale Access app, while HomeKit automation away from home routes through the Apple home hub.

Frequently asked questions

What comes in the box to install the Yale Assure Lock 2 Plus?

The lock, a Wi-Fi smart module, DoorSense, mounting hardware and deadbolt, and 4 AA batteries. The listing gives no tool list or door measurements, so check your door prep first.

Not for a single user tapping to unlock. A HomePod, HomePod mini or Apple TV home hub is needed for more than one home key user and for remote HomeKit control.

What if the Yale Assure Lock 2 Plus batteries die?

A 9V terminal on the lock allows emergency charging.

Does the Yale Assure Lock 2 Plus work with Android phones?

Android is listed under controller types for the Yale Access app, but Apple Home Key itself needs an iPhone or Apple Watch.
