Great Item
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had a new side door I stalled for direct path to the basement and kitchen. The door will be used sparingly, but, for bringing larger items into the home (groceries, bikes, sports gear, etc). The deadbolt and smart lock was extremely EASY to install. Had zero issues with installation. Connection through the app took a couple tries, but, once I realized what I was doing wrong, it was a quick fix. I love having notifications for usage by my children. Automatic locking after the assigned time eases the mind. Love being able to go outside and not having to worry about carrying keys. The lock is pricey, but, in my opinion well worth it. I gladly recommend the product and will be getting another for the front door when we upgrade.

Great Door Lock
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lock replaced the Kevo that was supplied by my home builder. Install was super easy and only took 30 minutes. I did have to adjust the closed position of the door as the dead bolt rubbed the plate when the door would lock and get stuck, but that’s not the locks fault. Adding it to my nest account was easy and it works flawless with the app. I thought having no key would be weird but I’m use to it now and that’s one less thing I have to carry in my pocket when taking the dogs out. A really cool feature is to be able to give someone a code for a set period of time, ex. you are out of town and they are house sitting. With the app if you get stuck in ski traffic and you need someone to let the dogs out, just unlock it with your phone. A great product.

Easy first step to a wireless home
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful design, easy to install and use. I was able to install the unit in about 25 minutes (I already had a deadbolt). The directions were easy to follow and the set up with the app was seamless.

Nest Yale Locks are amazing.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I *love* the Nest Yale lock. It means that I don't need to carry any house keys any more. And, each family member gets their own pass code. And if you have multiple keypads, then each person's codes work on all of the locks. Plus, temporary codes are awesome. The only slight drawback is that you have to have a hub to connect the lock to the wifi, but that's a security feature, so I can live with one more things plugged in. I've been using these locks for the better part of a year and have had no problems.

Nest is the best!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say about this that hasn’t been said already? It’s simply an amazing lock that works and integrates perfectly with my Nest ecosystem. One app controls your door and cam, no need to fuss with multiple apps. One disadvantage I will say is that the Yale X lock does NOT work with Alexa, Siri, etc. If you are looking for smart assistant help, you’ll have to get the standard Yale without Nest integration. For me though, not having that feature is not a big deal as I greatly enjoy the seamless integration. Installation was very very easy and took all about maybe 10 minutes. If you’re the slightest bit handy, you’ll be fine.

Pricey lock
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installation was relatively for the physical portion. Struggled to get the lock to pair and connect to the wifi for some reason. Had the bridge plugged in next to it and still had trouble connecting. Overall its decent but dont know if its worth the price. Also doesnt work with alexa so keep that in mind if you use that. Need to use google home instead.

Posted .Hi there, Chaoz. We appreciate your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about the difficult experience you had while setting up and connecting your Nest x Yale Lock.
Please note that the Nest x Yale Lock cannot connect directly to your Wi-Fi network. It needs to connect to the Nest Connect first, which comes with your Nest lock. The Nest Connect acts as a border router to your Wi-Fi network. To ensure a stable connection, please consider the following steps:
- Check the proximity: Make sure your Nest x Yale Lock and Wi-Fi router are within range of the Nest Connect, ideally within 50 feet in direct line of sight. Keep in mind that this range could be shorter if there are potential sources of interference, such as physical obstacles like thick walls, mirrors, windows, and competing signals from other wireless devices, baby monitors, microwaves, etc.
- Restart your devices: Try restarting the Nest x Yale Lock, Nest Connect, and your Wi-Fi router to refresh the connections.
- Adjust device placement: If necessary, consider moving the devices closer together to establish a stable connection.
Additionally, you may want to check your current setup and see if some of the recommended items below can prove to be helpful:
- Disable cellular/mobile data for your mobile device where the Nest app or Home app is installed. Ensure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your lock. To ensure cellular data is off, turn on Airplane mode and then turn on Wi-Fi.
- Check the OS version of your mobile phone device. We recommend using Android 8.0 or later for Android phones or tablets, and iOS 14.0 or later versions for iPhones or iPads when using the Nest app or Home app.
- Try updating the Home app.
- Consider installing the Home app, using the same account, on another mobile phone or tablet device, and see if the issue persists.
- If you don't experience the same issue with another device, we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the Nest app or Home app on the main mobile phone device.
If the connection issue persists, we recommend reaching out to our support team for further assistance through this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Recommend for everyone!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely LOVE my smart lock! I tell everyone who is considering getting a smart lock to opt for this model. It's great that if I forget to lock my door, as soon as it senses my phone is away from the house it automatically locks. You can give access codes as needed and specify the amount of time. This is a great feature for me since I have animals and often have house/dog sitters. You can also see if people try to use their code outside their normal hours. It was easy to install, even with having to drill a larger hole in my door. GREAT GREAT GREAT buy! I'm so glad after all my research I opted for this one!

Great Lock
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lock works great and integrates well into the nest ecosystem. It is very easy to install and set up of the lock itself is also easy walking through the steps on your phone through the nest app. The temporary key function is also great as you can give people a key pin that lasts for as long as you want it to. The only downside is that there is no integration with Google Home at all. I can understand not being able to unlock the door with smart home voice functions, since that could pose security risks but you can't even tell google to lock up for the night having it lock without opening the app, this would be a welcome update.

Works very well and easy to install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Happy with this lock. It has been reliable and was easy to install. I was able to put the Nest receiver that connects the lock to my wifi into a closet outlet with no service issues. That helped to hide the device. My wireless access points are well positioned so I cannot speak to the range but it was nice that the signal between the lock and the Nest receiver was not impaired by the closet wall and door. I have installed deadbolt locks before and I find the design of the Yale lock very thoughtful and easy to install.

Great Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this to add to the other smart devices in our house. This has been nice because the install was easy and it was really easy to add to the Nest app. I like how it shows up on the nest app and allows you to control it through there. You can give out passcodes to give people (like family members or babysitters) temporary access or permanent access. You can also check the status of the door and lock and unlock it from your phone as well as get notifications on your phone when someone has locked and unlocked the door and who it was that did it. This was a great product that I'm very happy with.

So Easy!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was very easy to install (and trust me, my husband is not good at this type of stuff). As all my Nest products, this was very easy to set up and connect in the app. I’ve had no trouble and I love the features. I like that you can set it on Privacy mode so no one can use the keypad when you don’t want them to. I also love that you can set up different passwords, times, etc. it’s perfect for my housekeeper. Finally, I like that you can set it to auto lock after a certain time so you don’t forget about locking it. Overall I am extremely satisfied with my Nest Yale lock!

Great product!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once i realized i needed to drill deeper into my door sonthr bolt would fit, installation was smooth. Easy to set up wifi connection and the app is very user friendly. This lock allows you to program different codes or randomly send out a code via email to anyone you wish. You can set access code start times and expiration date/time. Owner can also open the lock remotely at will from a cell phone. This is a must have if you own a rental property or must share restricted access to various people and don’t want to worry about transferring keys back and forth.

Great locks if you’re in the Google ecosystem
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second time buying these (putting them on ny house now). They are amazing if you are in the Google/nest ecosystem. They are also the most responsive as a few locks I’ve had the keypads are laggy and these I’ve never had an issue. Battery life is also amazing (use lithium batteries). Only downside is it’s only nest/Google and you have to use the included bridge since they don’t connect directly to wifi. I get it to save battery they use a more efficient protocol but it is less convenient.

Awesome once you get past tricky install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love using this smart lock. It’s super handy if you need to let someone in when your not home + great not having to worry about a key. I haven’t used the functions where you can assign different people codes to get in, but that seems like it could be useful. I had a little trouble getting the bolt to align with the door frame and that’s why I gave 4 stars. Spent longer than I wanted chiseling the door frame receptacle for the bolt to get it to shut properly. Had an error message and was worried it wasn’t going to work. After a while I got everything to work and it’s been working great since.

Great lock!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Making my review backwards. Overall, this lock works well for the last half of the day today after installation. I must say that there were set backs that made it difficult and about a few hours to complete and troubleshoot and still has connectivity issues. 1st: the deadbolt wouldnt extend to size, thus jimmying it and forcing it to finally open up took about 5-10 minutes what shouldve taken less than 5-10 seconds. Nitpicky? Nah. 2nd: the back portion that gets installed first and then the deadbolt switch was tight, meaning that once the thin portion is installed, youd have to force the deadbolt switch up to align the screws. Weird. 3rd: going through the installation via nest app is easy, but trying to integrate it with google home was a failure. Why? Seriously. It should have been as simple as logging in but it doesnt allow me. 4rd: after it ran its test multiple times due to failure, i adjusted the same deadbolt strike plate that came with the house and it works without the google iteration of the strike plate. Anyways… The sole reason i bought this was to integrate with google, and it has not shown to work.
