Expert review by : Andre Revilla (pocket-lint.com)

Yale's new retrofit lock is great on paper, but I could never fully trust it

 

Yale released a new smart lock to retrofit deadbolts in your home, and while a great product in concept, it lacks my trust where it counts the most.

Easy installation and setup ; Fits most existing deadbolts

Weak motor leaves risk of deadbolts not fully opening ; Wi-Fi bridge is a half-measure to true, native, Wi-FI support

Yale Approach Lock With Wi-Fi Review

 

Easy retrofit installation ; Lots of convenient ways to lock and unlock your door ; Affordable ; Easy retrofit installation ; Lots of convenient ways to lock and unlock your door ; Affordable

Unreliable performance in testing ; Difficult Wi-Fi setup ; HomeKit support not currently available

The Yale Approach Lock has the potential to be a great retrofit smart lock, but some performance issues limit its ability to provide true peace of mind.
