I have found this video to be very helpful. I wanted to add this tip in case anyone else has the issue I had. I had to get a new wifi router. I could not get the Nest Connect to re-connect to the wifi. Nothing I tried would connect the lock or the connect. I finally discovered that the lock has a reset button located on the back. Although I did not find specific information stating that you need to reset it to add it to a new wifi I did do this and the Connect and the lock set up perfectly.
Your demonstration on this product was right on. It helped us right down to the complete setup. You explained the installation thoroughly. Thank you so much. Keep kicking them out. 😇
@@LifeHackster can you unlock the door from anywhere like while your at work or the store or do you have to be standing in bluetooth range to unkock it?
@@LifeHackster actually, your average exterior door comes with a packet, usually containing a weather strip patch to seal a small gap at a corner, and 1 3" screw. That screw is for leveling the door to the frame. With 9-12 screws in the frame across 3 wide spread load points, is a lot of load spreading so not to much worry there.. The hinge side of a door rarely breaks. The weak point is latch side, only 4 screws.. 2 contact points. 2 small contact points.. close together. This concentrates the impact force to a small area. 3" screws are your best bet there in the latch plates. Don't worry to much about hinge side.
Thank you for your quality reviews! I recommend turning Spaces ON in your Nest app settings. Then assign devices to thier respective spaces. I.E. have Nest Hello and Nest Yale assigned to Entryway. That way, in the summary view you could see people and access door locks easier. It is not as slick as the competition's set up, yet. At least viewing and controls are more organized and accessible.
This has been the most clear and easy to follow videos on this product I've watched. Very informative and educational. I just bought and installed my nest x Yale lock today and so far I'm digging it. And I absolutely agree with you about the nest hello doorbell not giving you the option to unlock the door right from the video. All of this tech is supposed to make things easier not complicated with more steps. Hopefully with an update they can add that in which I'm sure could be done.
Lifehackster, based on your review I bought this. It worked great for 1 week. I've had it for 3weeks connected on 2.4ghz channel. It is literally two feet from the Nest Connect. It's been offline 90% of the time after that first week. It usually goes offline around 3am. Then it is offline for 3 or for days. Resetting and removing batteries worked exactly one time. After that, nothing. I will be returning it. It is trash. If you set autolock and leave the door open, say, to bring groceries in, the lock activates. You risk shutting the door and damaging the door jam. So ultimately, it is a dumb lock since it does not detect when the door is open. You need to do a follow up review. Also, if you accidentally enter your pin incorrectly(fat fingers) thinking you entered correctly, you get locked out of your home. If the unit is offline, you are up the creek without a paddle. The Instructions don't say how long it will take to reset so that you can enter it again. Your videos are good, but this one is very misleading. NEST YALE HAS OFFLINE ISSUES!
Sorry to hear you have issues. I have been using mine still and I have no offline issues. There are a couple of instances that when electricity was out, the Nest connect didn’t reconnect which I have to reset (remove a battery for a bit) ...and since I installed it, I replaced the batteries 1 time... and we use the lock at least 4-5 times a day.
@@LifeHackster What I have found (No thanks to Google, Nest or Nest Yale/Connect written in instructions) is that the Nest Thermostat, Nest Connect, Nest Protect and Nest Yale lock all must not only be on the same network, but if a wifi extender is used, they all must be signed on to that device. If not, the Nest Yale connection will be be spotty at first then it will not connect at all. The Nest Connect retrieves its server data from the Protects. It is heavily dependant on those devices at setup. Since the Protects can be on a a different wifi device(say router direct), it passes that data to the Nest Connect. That causes disjointed info going back and forth between the Nest Thermostat unless it too is directly connected to the the same device. Crazy....
Very awesome video, actually one of the best I have found, explaining the review of the nest lock. Thank you very much for the clarity and specifics of the installation and use.
I’d prefer Ring to come out with one. Now that Amazon owns them, they can make a Ring branded lock so their deliveries can be put inside your house. Hopefully it’ll be better integrated if you also own the doorbell.
I'm glad you were able to get that Nest Connect to actually "connect". Many people, including myself, were unable to do so as it has a known bug that knocks one's router offline and needing a hard reset prior to the pairing process being completed. The routers seem to be random. Nest support is aware of this issue and has been working on this issue for months! Nevertheless, sick of frustration and waiting, I was forced to buy the Nest Secure at $400 in order to have the lock pair with the Nest app and work as advertised. No cool.
I have the Yale/Nest deadbolt lock, got it from BB TIN for free. I agree about incorporating a lock icon in the dorrbell screen to unlock the door while viewing person at door!
Such a detailed video . You are the best in explaining about security cameras & other google nest products . Thank you . I have a question. Do the below 3 Nest products talk to each other when it detects an known person? Example: I walk to my front door , the nest hello detects me , it opens the door lock open for me . Nest secure does not beep. Nest X Yale door lock Nest Hello doorbell Nest Secure. Thanks for your time.
Caleb Caleb the new year old and I have a few things that I will be doing in my life and I’m going through llllkllllklllklllklllklllklllklllklllkllllllklllklklkkklkklkopkloip
Any update with this lock? I just installed mine today and had the same issue that I had to re-use the existing strike plate in the frame. I saw that you re-used the one that was already installed, wondering if this cause any problems in the years to come?
As m9j16 said, I so want Ring to make or integrate with a smart lock. If they can have it the alarm, doorbell, cameras and lock all work in the same app...wow, talk about nice! If you can, I would love a review of the Ultraloq UL3 BT, but you have to get a module for wi-fi access. Yale does look nice, but we have a turn doorknob that gets used most of the time and not the deadbolt. Deadbolt is usually only at night or if we are gone on a trip.
I know. That would be nice. It would be nicer though if there is one app that can control all smart devices from all companies. This Nest Yale lock is pretty simple but functional.
I would like a smart lock that covers the bottom turn doorknob and the upper dead bolt. All these smart locks just secure the upper dead bolt but use just a push button or no lock for the bottom. My doors have the keyed lower door knob and a keyed upper stronger dead bolt. I refuse to purchase a smart door lock until someone comes out with one that secures both.
Thanks for the video LifeHackster. I have all types of camera, still a little reluctant to add these smart locks. Your video is pushing me closer to purchase one. Still on the fence. I’m hoping Ring will make a smart lock.
Did anyone noticed/heard a goat in the background at 11:30. That was sweet. Anyway, it was a great video - well paced and detailed - no horrifying music. Loved it. Thanks for sharing.
That would be nice but it can be a hit or miss and also a security issue. Right now the only way you can unlock the door is through the app or the keypad. Voice control, using the hub will not you open the door but it lock it for you.
Sorry if I missed this, sonic someone comes over and you’re not home how does the door lock again? Do they need to call you and you lock it? Say if you were out of town? How does that work ? Adding they don’t have a smart phone or know how to use it
If you have given them access via a code, then they can type it in to unlock and they can lock it back from the inside or when outside, they push the "yale" logo on the keypad to lock the door.
Your videos are very thorough and comprehensive. What are the other smart techie things that you do. I feel much better about buying the Yale lock. I need to replace my front door lock and this helps.
As to August, I'll check them out whenever they release a new product or new model of their existing products. The Google Home hub has very limited integration with Ring... You are not able to stream video with it at this time anyways.
My new nest Yale lock was working just fine than it just stopped. I was locked out. lucky my wife let me in. It Dissipeared from my phone. I started over by pulling the batts out and replaceing them. I went through the set up procedure again and it keeps failing to connect back up. hat do I do? Tony F
Would be nice if the Yale Lock would unlock as it sensed your phone get in range (via bluetooth or wifi or something else) instead of thru code or app. Thinking of when my hands are full with grocery bags, etc. Having to dig for my phone and wait for an app to unlock is just as inconvenient as digging for keys or enter a code.
True but I think they are doing it for safety reasons. Anybody can get/steal your phone and will have access to your house. Right now, at least all of your smart home controls/apps are protected by your pin lock on your phone.
It will be limited based on sharing the Nest app. A Nest Lock in one location, maximum is 25 - 1 owner; 9 additional with full access, 10 people with home entry only.
@@LifeHackster is it possible that as Google's voice recognition can recognize individual voices now, that a future update may provide unlock? Also, I think unlock by NFC would be cool!
I love how it's thorough but can you show yourself entering in the password b/f you charge it with your battery? I know the locks are known to NOT unlock using the pinpad.
If the battery rans out, you will not be able to type in your pass code but with the 9 volt battery, it will give the keypad juice so that you will be able to type it in.
Hey, could you check if the Nest hub is dual voltage capable or just a single voltage? I'm planning to use it on the other part of the world where the voltage is 210-240V. Please help. Thanks
Do you have to use the phone every time you come in or it will open automatically like the August Smart Lock? (as long as you have your phone with you)
Hello Life Hackster! Will you please tell us which voice device platform you use? Alexa or Google? Also could you please do a review on the Yale Assure SL with August connect? Love your videos!
Hello ive been a subscribor for s few montns now and love your videos. Im wondering if the nest lock i intergrates with google home Thanks for your time
does anyone know if you can use it on multiple properties? we have 6 airbnb's that i'd like to add them on but i can't find anywhere on if they limit the number of locks you can control from the app
6:00 my door is mounted the other way around: door frame is on the right side when you want to get inside the house.will the lock still work? great channel btw lifehackster

What happens if your internet goes down? Would have liked to see that scenario.
It still works as normal. Just can't lock or unlock from the app or receive notifications.
the passcode still works on the outside of the door.
You will not be able to control it through the app but the keypad will work.
Thanks for the response.
Only one bolt though, my existing lock triggers 3 bolts

True but I think they are doing it for safety reasons. Anybody can get/steal your phone and will have access to your house. Right now, at least all of your smart home controls/apps are protected by your pin lock on your phone.
You will still have to turn the door handle to enter the home. Unless a activated level swing that will automatically open the door.
@@harrygirgin9093 Yeah but if you have the lever style type like I have (not a knob style) you can open it if unlocked with your hips or leg.
if there was only a IFTTT for the nest door lock!!
Excellent video. I totally agree about the lock unlock button!
Yes. They need to add it.
Can you remotely add passcodes from outside the house? I need to add passcodes while I am away from home for Airbnb
Yes you can..add it from the app..
LifeHackster thank you
Lifehackster would you still consider this the best deadbolt smart lock on the market right now?
Great video! Will you recommend this product at this moment? Thanks for your feedback! Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
I have this lock and my biggest complaint is the throw of the deadbolt. it's less than one inch, which is painfully short for a deadbolt.
I think it is more of a Yale thing. My other Yale deadbolt in my backdoor has the same 1 inch throw.
Can you make the door lock with geofencing (like if you leave the house and forget to lock the door, it detects you're not home and locks)
It has an auto lock feature which you can turn ON and it will lock at a predetermined time e.g . 1 minute or 5 minutes after you unlock.
Does it have the unlock option on the ring doorbell live view yet?
Ring should make a smart lock.
My thoughts exactly!
m9j16 totally agree!
I bet they will eventually...
I'm hoping for a smart lock and a thermostat.
@@ericandmeag that would be epic
Please review the August Smart Lock Pro! Your reviews are by far the best in existence.
Thanks. I’ll check it out.
I was wondering if theres a way of getting nest cameras chimes on google mini

I am hopeful but knowing Nest, they probably will not.
How many unique pass codes/users can you have on it? Was planning on using this for my business :) Thanks in advance!
It will be limited based on sharing the Nest app. A Nest Lock in one location, maximum is 25 - 1 owner; 9 additional with full access, 10 people with home entry only.
If you don't have the nest alarm system ect can u still use this Yale lock as a standalone lock?
I’m thinking you can..but will not be able to control it from your phone.
Can u use the yale app Instead of nest app
Great review! I really want this, but maybe when it drops in price. Also, why can't we unlock with Google Assistant?
It is for safety. You don't want anybody can just unlock your door by voice but they can always add a passcode that you can say like the Ring's.
@@LifeHackster is it possible that as Google's voice recognition can recognize individual voices now, that a future update may provide unlock? Also, I think unlock by NFC would be cool!
Did they update the UI to show unlock on the camera preview?
Not yet at this time.
Do I need to buy a nest connect for the lock even though I have the nest hub max?
Great video and detail. Thank you.
I love how it's thorough but can you show yourself entering in the password b/f you charge it with your battery? I know the locks are known to NOT unlock using the pinpad.

100-240 volts.
Is this the oil rubbed bronze color?
Yes.
@@LifeHackster Thank you! On their website the picture makes is look very light colored.
hi, do you know any way to automatically stream/feed to an iPad when someone push the button in the nest hello???

No automatic unlocking yet.
Hi. Can you open the door without entering password? e.g. proximity phone
I believe that if you have Nest Guardian you don't need the Nest Connect plugged in.
I think so too..it will act as the WiFi hub..
Can I use this lock with Alexa?
why do you need the nest white thing 4:29?

whats the nest connect power rating? wanted to use it with 220v
As long as your doorbell transformer is for 220.. it is 16-24 VAC...

any where we can control thought nest x mobile if i am out of state ....?

Only lock. For safety, you have to use the app to unlock the door.

Hello ive been a subscribor for s few montns now and love your videos. Im wondering if the nest lock i intergrates with google home
Thanks for your time
Yes, it does. Thanks.
does anyone know if you can use it on multiple properties? we have 6 airbnb's that i'd like to add them on but i can't find anywhere on if they limit the number of locks you can control from the app
I don't think there is a limit. You just need to add another "Home" on the Nest app on each of your properties.
Nest won't add it. I would prefer an all Ring ecosystem. But, I really love the Yale Nest lock.
I know, Nest seems like quiet nowadays...I'm waiting for their Nest Hello 2.. lol
What if someone break it? Also if cut it?
When amazon echo auto comes out I plan to get it and I have this lock will it work
Yes and No. Yes, it will work with voice command to lock the door but for security reasons, it will not let you unlock it.
No, this dosen't work with Amazon Alexa, only Google Assistant
Subscribed for the kababayan pride
i hope they added it
Not yet... :(
6:00 my door is mounted the other way around: door frame is on the right side when you want to get inside the house.will the lock still work? great channel btw lifehackster
You are describing the usual door setup which is the lock on the right side when you are outside trying to get in.
@@LifeHackster my bad.. the lock is on left side when i am outside trying to get in and door opens from left to right
Yeah definitely a missed opportunity if they haven't updated the video doorbell to unlock the door while viewing as yet.
Dose it use a lot of bandwidth..?
No. It will only use WiFi/internet when you are accessing/using it.
Another phenomenal review! Do you know if this lock would work with Alexa?
Thank You. As far as I know, No with Amazon Alexa.
very curious that if I got locked out and somehow the in house wifi is also dead, the best thing I can do in that situation is praying to god?
Use a 9v battery under it and it'll give you enough power to unlock it.
Thanks Hackster. I have Yale and love it. I wish they were cheaper and I would have 2 of them .
I know, they are a bit expensive but I guess that is because of the Nest integration so that it can be controlled via internet.
What about the Schlage Smart Lock? Could you do a review on those?
Probably in my future videos. I still have my back patio door with an old traditional dead bolt.
13:46 how did you make that? Nvm found it
:)
Why keypad when finger print sensor is so much smaller
True. Biometrics should be a good feature for this locks..
Bravo 👏
Is it worth in 2019?
Yes.. it still working without any issues.
LifeHackster I meant is it worth buying.
Κώστας Βρουτσης YES
I love Nest products, but it PAINS me when they don't integrate their own products with each other. It's so obvious!!!
I know.
What if wifi goes down?
