The Yale Assure Lock 2 won’t see you spending a fortune to upgrade your existing deadbolt for a smart lock, covering enough of the basics to make it a competent offering. You’ll be able to unlock it using a mobile app, plus support for Z-Wave will ensure compatibility with any systems you might already use. However, it does require careful attention during installation. As a result, anyone unconfident in their abilities might be best opting for a professional installation to ensure the Yale Assure Lock 2 is properly set up.
