Features

Overview: The Yale Real Living Assure Lever Lock (YRL216) with the Connected by August Kit is a standalone push-button lever lock for single-hole doors, including side entries, garages, basements, and more. The lock offers keyless entry through the use of the push-button keypad, or keyed entry, if desired. Two keys are included. With the included Connected by August Kit, you can lock, unlock, and monitor the door lock from anywhere using the August app. The app allows you to activate the lock with your voice using Amazon\’s Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri (Apple HomeKit). You can store up to 250 unique entry codes, between 4 and 8 digits, to gain entry to your door. Without the Connected by August Smart Module installed, there are only 25 possible entry codes. The Yale Assure smart lock is powered by 4 "AA" alkaline batteries (included). It is available in Satin Nickel, Polished Brass, and Oil Rubbed Bronze finishes.

Door Compatibility: You can install the Yale Assure Lock on doors with a thickness of 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". A special order thin door gasket kit must be used for doors 1-3/8" thick. The door should have a backset distance of 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" (from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole), with a face bore hole of 2-1/8" and an edge bore hole of 1".

Installation Overview: Once you have removed the existing door hardware, you should use the included template to be sure your door is compatible (with the proper door thickness, backset placement, and bore hole size). The new latch and strike plate are installed in the bore holes. There are two components of the door lock — the external escutcheon with the keypad, and the internal escutcheon with the battery compartment. The external unit is mounted to the door and attached to the inside mounting plate on the other side with the long through screws. The two units plug together via the 10-pin cable attached to the keypad unit. The internal escutcheon mounts to the mounting plate via two short screws. Once the levers and other hardware are installed and tested mechanically, you can insert the Connected by August Module and the 4 "AA" batteries into the slot in the battery compartment. Programming the Smart Lock involves setting the Master PIN and as many User PINs as you need.

Yale Assure Lock Features: The Yale Assure Lock offers the following general features:

• Automatic Re-lock: You can program the Smart Lock to automatically re-lock after a preset amount of time: 30 seconds (default), 60 seconds, 2 minutes, or 3 minutes. You can also disable the feature, as well.
• Inside Indicator Light: The indoor escutcheon has an LED indicator to show you at a glance if the door is locked or unlocked. The default setting is "disengaged."
• One Touch Locking: When the latch is retracted, you can press any key on the keypad to immediately lock the door. The default setting is "engaged."
• Privacy Button Setting: Privacy Mode disables all PIN codes and puts the lock into a "do not disturb" mode. By default, this feature is disabled, and you must press the privacy button (on the indoor escutcheon) for more than 4 seconds to enable it.
• Audio Mode: When a PIN is entered correctly, the Smart Lock will sound a confirmation tone. If you wish to defeat the tones, you can disable the feature through programming.
• All Code Lockout: This mode restricts access to all users except with the Master PIN code. When one of the other PIN codes is entered, the keypad flashes 8 times, and beeps 3 times.
• Network Settings: You can allow the Smart Lock to connect with a network controller. You can program the lock to join or exit the network through the programming menu.

Connected by August Kit: The Yale Assure Keypad Lever Lock is packaged with the Connected by August Kit. The kit includes the Connected by August module, the August Connect Wi-Fi bridge, and DoorSense unit. The August Connect, uses your home\’s Wi-Fi network and Internet connection to control the Smart Lock from anywhere through the August Home app. Connect also allows you to control the Smart Lock using voice commands through Alexa, or the Google Assistant. The Connect Wi-Fi bridge is 2-3/8\” square x 1-1/2\” deep, and plugs into a standard AC outlet, and must be within 15 feet of the Smart Lock to connect. DoorSense can sense whether or not your door is open or closed. A magnet in the DoorSense module interacts with the SmartLock when the door is closed. You can view the condition of the door (open or closed, locked or unlocked) on the August Home app. DoorSense can be surface-mounted or flush-mounted next to the door latch, and requires only a screwdriver to install. (Flush mounting also requires drilling a 5/8\” hole in the door frame.) Connected by August provides the following programmable features:

• Unlocks Automatically: As you approach the door with your smartphone, the lock automatically connects to your phone and unlocks the door. You can also set it to lock as you leave, so you won\’t have to worry about whether you remembered to lock the door.
• Share Access: You can grant access to your home for the people you trust. Access can be permanent, temporary, or on a unique schedule.
• History: The August app keeps track of who comes and goes, giving you a smartphone notification, as well as a 24/7 access history.
• Voice Access: The lock works with Amazon Alexa, the Google Assistant, and Siri (including Apple HomeKit), allowing you to lock or unlock the door using your voice.
