What Is Z-Wave and Why It Matters

The Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch leverages the Z-Wave 800 Series, a wireless communication protocol specifically designed for smart home devices. Z-Wave is widely used in home automation systems because it operates on a low-power, low-latency mesh network, which offers several key benefits over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth alternatives:

Benefits of Z-Wave 800 Series:

• Longer Range: The 800 Series supports extended communication distances—up to hundreds of feet—allowing devices like locks, lights, and sensors to stay reliably connected, even in larger homes.
• Improved Battery Life: Z-Wave devices consume very little energy, which means smart locks can run longer between battery replacements.
• High Security: Z-Wave uses AES 128-bit encryption, the same standard used in online banking, ensuring secure communication between your lock and your smart hub.
• Interoperability: One of the biggest advantages of Z-Wave is that devices from different manufacturers can talk to each other, as long as they use the Z-Wave standard. That means your lock can integrate easily with other smart home devices and hubs that support Z-Wave, including ADT+.

Many major smart home platforms support Z-Wave technology, including ADT, Ring Alarm (Z-Wave version), SmartThings, Frontpoint Security, and HomeSeer. This makes Z-Wave-based devices like the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch ideal for homeowners looking to build or expand a connected home system.

Why This Lock Is a Smart Choice for ADT Customers

For ADT+ users, this lock is more than a security upgrade—it becomes part of a unified home management system. Integrating directly with the ADT+ app and control panel, the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch offers streamlined control over physical access and system-wide home security. You no longer have to juggle multiple apps or devices—just tap your finger to enter and automatically disarm your system.

The lock’s use of the Z-Wave 800 Series ensures dependable performance, strong security, and compatibility with other smart devices in your home. Whether you're replacing an old lock or upgrading to a smarter, more secure entry solution, the Assure Lock 2 Touch is a future-ready investment.
