Yale Home, a developer of smart home security solutions, has added two new smart locks to its Assure collection: The Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch and Yale Assure Lock 2 Plus.

These products are designed to deliver on Yale’s promise to expand its flagship product line with innovative products, including the brand’s first fingerprint smart lock, as well as its first smart lock to support Apple home keys. Both products are now available for purchase.

“We take pride in Yale’s legacy of offering high-quality security products that our customers have trusted for more than 183 years – and these new smart locks are no exception,” says Garrett Lovejoy, vice president of product, Yale and August U.S.

“With these additions to our best-selling Assure Lock 2 collection, we are delivering products that simplify access for the everyday household—whether through our new fingerprint-powered smart lock or our first-ever device that supports Apple home keys. With more ways to access and protect your home, you can come and go with peace of mind.”

Assure Lock 2 Products Complement Smart Home Lifestyles

Providing even more ways to go keyless, the Assure Lock 2 Touch is Yale’s first smart lock with a built-in fingerprint reader. The lock offers the ability to register up to 20 different fingerprints. Users simply place their finger on the Yale logo to lock and unlock the door, adding to the many other ways to access the home—from using the touchscreen to the Yale Access app—the new lock includes options such as asking a voice assistant, leveraging Auto-Lock and Auto-Unlock, or sticking with a traditional key as a backup (with keyed models).
