The Yale Assure Lock® is a smart device that lets you lock, unlock and monitor your home from your phone.

As we've all become more focused on creating better living environments at home, smart home devices are proving to be more helpful than ever. They're no longer just luxury items or gadgets, they're modern-day necessities that provide benefits like energy cost savings and peace of mind. They may even help you sell your home someday – 90 percent of realtors surveyed in a recent Coldwell Banker report said highlighting smart home features can benefit a home listing. With all these benefits, there’s no reason the doors in your home should be left behind. Enter: The Yale Assure Lock®.

This device lets you lock or unlock your home directly from your phone, and that’s just one benefit. It also keeps you from locking yourself out and can improve your home security through its monitoring capabilities (each person who enters gets a unique code, so you can always see if your kids are home from school or even what time your contractor left). Better yet, you don't have to sacrifice any curb appeal to get it, as it comes in three different finishes to match your home's style.
