Price includes a manufacturer surcharge due to tariffs effective May 1, 2025
Built for doors that don’t need a deadbolt, the Yale Assure Lever Lock is well suited for side entryways, home to garage doors, basements and most interior doors. The Assure Lever can be used as a standalone keypad lock, or integrated into your smart home network with the included Z-Wave Network Module installed in the lock and connecting to a Z-Wave controller. Compatible with Ring, Vera, BeHome247, Iris, Samsung SmartThings, Wink and more! This will enable remote management of your smart home or lock, and for you to receive alerts on your smartphone from anywhere. If there is an attempt to forcibly remove the lock, an audible alarm will sound. Equipped with a keypad featuring backlit numbers that won’t wear off, you will always be able to enter your code correctly each time. You can create up to 250 codes when connected to a Z-Wave controller (25 when standalone) to share with anyone who needs to gain entry to your door. The lock is set to automatically relock in 30 seconds upon closing. Press the lock button to wake up your keypad or lock your door. Locked out with no power? Using a 9V battery, you can power the backup terminal on the underside of the lock to give it enough juice to enter your code and your door or use the keyed override with two keys included.

The lock fails. It says it is jammed but it is not. I've rest, re-registered more than three times. They don't back this product up after 14 days. Save yourself the expensive grief. Avoid Yale electronic locks.
Fundamentally, it works as advertised. It connected to my Vera hub, can lock or unlock remotely, add and remove codes, etc. However the ergonomics are terrible. The angle of the keypad, and the readability of the keypad is bad, as is getting the keypad backlight on. First, to get the keypad illuminated, you have to touch a key. Unfortunately the Yale logo at the top is not actually a button/key, so pressing it does nothing. You have to press one of the other 12 keys. If the key you touch is a number key, then you've started entering your passcode, but the keypad is dark, so it's hard to hit the right button. But you've already started entering a code, so you have to fail that code entry to start over with the correct code. After you fail a code, the backlight goes off pretty quickly so you have to move fast if you want to read the numbers. Second, the keypad is not angled up enough, and the numbers are recessed in the keys, so you can't read the keypad unless you lean over and get your head down near it's level. If you're standing within reach of the keypad, the angle you're looking at the keypad is way too steep to actually read the keypad. It's stupidly bad. My workaround is I've put a small piece of white sticker on the gear button. I can see that in the dark and I know it's in the lower right. I press that and the keyboard illuminates, but it does not start a code sequence. Then I arguably see to enter my pass code if I lean down a bit.
I have 6 of these locks on my vacation rentals. They are wonderful locks with great battery life and reliability. It's the only lock I will use. I pair it with the Vera, now Ezlo hub and I can control the locks from anywhere in the world. It also allows me to set guest specific codes with a start and stop date and time which is invaluable for the vacation rental business.
When I first installed my smart locks, brand K was about the only option that I could find. They worked, but the levers always felt loose on the outside of the house. After a couple of years, the latch began to stick. Then the electronics started to fail. The latch was covered under warranty ($10 item), the electronics were not (expensive part). I gave up. The Yale installed easily and appears easy to service (I haven't had to change batteries yet). It feels much more solid on the door and the lever feels snug. If I have problems with my other brand K lock, I will change it to a Yale.
