4) Notes from me:
This product by Yale looks and feels like decent quality bit of equipment,
It offers much cheaper way of providing coded access to property than
standard,
electronic keypad operated systems.
It provides decent level of security as it can not be picked nor short wired to open it from outside,
However:
- As it has no key override it poses risk of you being locked out of
property should device ever fail.
- Batteries last around 6 moths up to a year. Do not ignore warning led or
you end locked out.
- Unlike old fashioned "dumb" locks that last almost forever "smart" locks
do tend have average life span
around 3 years.
- Above is not surprise as it is electronic device exposed to sun, rain, low
and high temperatures and humidity.
Conclusions:
- It is high quality product that provides higher security than standard
lock operated barrel,
- However as any electronic device it will fail and most likely will do it
without any warning.
- It is great solution in properties that have alternative entrance door as
it is very unlikely that both locks fail at the same time.
