NEW PRODUCT

Yale Assure SL now in Matt Black The Yale Assure SL brings smart security to the masses. It has a sleek key-free design and being battery powered it doesn’t require any hard wiring. And now it is available in a Matt Black powdercoated finish alongside the Satin Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze options. This sleek touchscreen deadbolt allows homeowners to enjoy the convenience of 100% key-free locking and unlocking. Easily retrofitted in place of existing mechanical

deadbolts, homeowners will never have to carry around their keys again. Create up to 25 unique pin codes for friends and family and remove codes whenever needed. The Assure SL includes ‘one touch’ locking, backlit screen and an alarm that sounds if the lock is tampered with. The Assure SL can be upgraded with a Yale Access Kit which gives the user full control over the lock via their smartphone, from anywhere. Other app features include creating PIN codes to share with others and view current lock status.

Coupled with the Lockwood 143 entrance handle also in Matt Black, and the Optimum Hinge Door Lock, this entrance kit provides a truly keyless solution which incorporates 3-point locking and makes a design statement on any entrance door. For more information scan the QR code.
