Yale Conexis Smart Front Door Lock

As seen on TV - the Yale Conexis SmartLock offers keyless control over your front door lock, and boasts PAS24 accreditation allowing you to maintain the integrity of your PAS24 accredited door setup.   The lock also allows you to download audit-trail (access history) logs from the Yale App, to allow you to monitor who has accessed (or attempted to access) the property through the Conexis lock.

One of the most sought after and enjoyed features of the Yale Conexis SmartLock solution is the new Twist & Go! feature, allowing you to lock and unlock your door by rotating your phone 90 degrees while facing the door.  In addition to this, the Conexis SmartLock gives you the ability to send 'Mobile Keys' to your friends and family should you wish to grant them access to the property - these can be on timed-access and can also be deleted, of course. 

Along with this you can also operate the lock with a key-card and key-fob; or by swapping out the module inside the unit, you can opt for the Yale SmartHome module to integrate with an existing compatible Yale CCTV & Alarm system, or even a Z-Wave interface if you have a Z-Wave based smarthome system in your home.

From an installation perspective, the Conexis is absolutely fantastic and is a quick and easy DIY job!  As long as you have a fairly 'normal' multipoint lock on your door, the Conexis will work with it and the only tool you will need is a screwdriver - which is a huge advantage for most of us.  So what is normal?  Well, the Conexis requires a door that is 44-70mm thick, with a multipoint lock installed with a 92mm PZ centre measurement - this is the distance between the centre of the keyhole on your euro cylinder, and the centre of the square spindle that your handles currently operate.  This is by far the most popular measurement so in over 95% of cases you will find yours to be 92mm - it's commonly considered the 'industry standard' these days.   As for the fixing points, Yale have been very clever with the design on these so there are three adjustable fixing points on the Conexis itself, so you can marry these up to the existing holes used by your handles - this allows for a seriously impressive 'universal' type design that requires minimal technical knowledge, and Yale claim these fixings will work with any 92mm PZ multipoint lock. 

These are a battery operated unit, too.  This means no cabling, no electricians, and no mess.  Just 4 x AA batteries which will last up to a year according to Yale.  Of course there's a low battery alert but even should they run empty by not being changed in time, there's a set of jumper terminals that allow you to connect a 9v battery to power the system in order to gain entry and change the batteries.
