Product Research

Features

Overview: The Yale Real Living Assure Lever Lock (YRL216) is a standalone push-button lever lock for single-hole doors, including side entries, garages, basements, and more. The lock offers keyless entry through the use of the push-button keypad, or keyed entry, if desired. Two keys are included. You can store up to 25 unique entry codes, between 4 and 8 digits, to gain entry to your door. The Yale Assure lock is powered by 4 "AA" alkaline batteries (included). It is available in Satin Nickel, Polished Brass, and Oil Rubbed Bronze finishes.

Door Compatibility: You can install the Yale Assure Lock on doors with a thickness of 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". A special order thin door gasket kit must be used for doors 1-3/8" thick. The door should have a backset distance of 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" (from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole), with a face bore hole of 2-1/8" and an edge bore hole of 1".

Installation Overview: Once you have removed the existing door hardware, you should use the included template to be sure your door is compatible (with the proper door thickness, backset placement, and bore hole size). The new latch and strike plate are installed in the bore holes. There are two components of the door lock -- the external escutcheon with the keypad, and the internal escutcheon with the battery compartment. The external unit is mounted to the door and attached to the inside mounting plate on the other side with the long through screws. The two units plug together via the 10-pin cable attached to the keypad unit. The internal escutcheon mounts to the mounting plate via two short screws. Once the levers and other hardware are installed and tested mechanically, you can insert the 4 "AA" batteries into the slot in the battery compartment. Programming the lock involves setting the Master PIN and as many User PINs as you need.

Other Programming Features: In addition to setting the Master PIN and User PINs, you can program these other convenient features:

  • Automatic Re-lock: You can program the Yale Assure Lock to automatically re-lock after a preset amount of time: 30 seconds (default), 60 seconds, 2 minutes, or 3 minutes. You can also disable the feature, as well.
  • Inside Indicator Light: The indoor escutcheon has an LED indicator to show you at a glance if the door is locked or unlocked. The default setting is "disengaged."
  • One Touch Locking: When the latch is retracted, you can press any key on the keypad to immediately lock the door. The default setting is "engaged."
  • Privacy Button Setting: Privacy Mode disables all PIN codes and puts the lock into a "do not disturb" mode. By default, this feature is disabled, and you must press the privacy button (on the indoor escutcheon) for more than 4 seconds to enable it.
  • Audio Mode: When a PIN is entered correctly, the lock will sound a confirmation tone. If you wish to defeat the tones, you can disable the feature through programming.
  • All Code Lockout: This mode restricts access to all users except with the Master PIN code. When one of the other PIN codes is entered, the keypad flashes 8 times, and beeps 3 times.
  • Network Settings: You can allow the lock to connect with a network controller. You can program the lock to join or exit the network through the programming menu. (Yale Smart Module required)

Warranty: The Yale Real Living Assure Lever Lock is covered by a Limited Lifetime warranty for the finish and mechanical operation of the lock. The electronics are covered for one year. These warranties apply to the original owner only.

Optional Smart Module: The Yale Assure Keypad Lock can be upgraded with the addition of a Yale Smart Module. The module allows you to connect the lock to your smartphone through the Yale Access App for added convenience. The Smart Module allows you to lock, unlock, and share access to your door with others. The lock will automatically unlock as you approach the door and re-lock shortly after you leave. You can also check the status of your lock from anywhere. The app can also work with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri voice assistants.

Dimensions: The Yale Assure Lever Lock's main components have the following dimensions:

  • Outdoor Escutcheon: Width 2.6", Height 6.059", Depth 4.297", Weight 15.25 ounces
  • Indoor Escutcheon: Width 2.764", Height 6.382, Depth 4.821", Weight 1.596 pounds (w/batteries)
