Review: Perfect Smart Lock for Renters - This lock is perfect especially for renters. It uses the existing deadbolt and key, so there's no issue with the landlord. Setup was super fast and only took a few minutes, and it connected to Wi-Fi and the app immediately with no problems. Linking it to Alexa was also easy so I can add it to my smart home routines. Highly recommend this for those looking for a painless way to add some smart functionality to your door!
Review: Works great and had good customer service. - I bought this just to have the option to not carry a key and to be able to unlock the door before I walk up to it with my arms full. Did not buy the key pad. It was easy to install, initially set up right away and worked, but I noticed that the calibration was off. If I unlocked the door with a key, the Yale would still show the door as locked. This was due to the lock not turning as far when using the key vs turning the knob inside. I tried to recalibrate it and only turning the inside knob just enough to pull the bolt back but the Yale lock freaked out. It made noise, flashed, and would not operate. I thought it had failed. The app linked me to email the Yale customer service with a video of what the issue was and photo of the adaptor I used. Based on some bad reviews, I figured I would have to wait a long time or not get a usable response. I was wrong, received a response right away with a recommendation to use the blue adaptor instead of the yellow adaptor I was using for my Schalge deadbolt. I swapped the adaptor, calibrated it, and it worked. It also does not have the original calibration issue. I have been using it for almost a month and the only minor issue is with the app. Sometimes the lock will not operate in the app unless I select Home and then the lock even though that's where I was to begin with. I had read a lot of bad reviews about this and almost did not buy it but it's exactly what I wanted. It's a basic way to operate the door lock with an app, so I gave it a try. I noticed one bad review with a video where the reviewer apparently did not know how to assemble a door lock. This Yale lock goes on the inside of the door and replaces just the lever/knob. You keep the outside and the bolt of the old lock.
