We use keyless “smart” locks on several doors and love the convenience. None of them are perfect, today, but they are getting better with each new iteration. We also use Nest products in our home, so we are hopeful the latest Yale/Nest mashup is a good one. Fingers crossed.
The Next X Yale Lock works with the existing Nest app and integrates with other Nest devices (cameras, thermostats, smoke detectors, alarm, etc…). Some cool features with the Nest X Yale Lock include automatic locking and alarm arming, one-time unlock codes (perfect for maintenance folks), remote locking/unlocking, and more. Available in the next few months in oil-rubbed bronze, polished brass, and satin nickel.
