Emtek EMTEK-SMARTMODULE-YA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Emtek SmartModule for Yale Access and how does it work?
The Emtek SmartModule is a retrofit smart lock conversion kit that works with Yale Access technology. It converts your existing deadbolt into a smart lock while keeping your current door hardware. The module connects via WiFi and integrates with the Yale Access app for remote control and monitoring.
2) Which deadbolts are compatible with this SmartModule?
The SmartModule works with most standard residential deadbolts with 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" backsets. Verify your existing deadbolt measurements before ordering. The module requires adequate interior door clearance and may not fit all decorative or oversized hardware configurations.
3) What door thickness and backset requirements apply?
Standard door thickness of 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" is required. The module accommodates 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" backsets. Measure your door and existing hardware before installation to ensure proper fit and operation.
4) How is the SmartModule powered and what is battery life?
The module operates on 4 AA batteries housed in the interior unit. Battery life varies based on usage but typically lasts 6-12 months. The Yale Access app provides low battery notifications. Use high-quality alkaline or lithium batteries for best performance.
5) What security grade and certifications does this lock meet?
Verify the security grade rating with manufacturer specifications. The SmartModule maintains the existing deadbolt's mechanical security while adding electronic access control. Check that your base deadbolt meets required security standards for your application.
6) Can I program multiple access codes and users?
The Yale Access app allows multiple user codes and access management. You can create temporary codes, schedule access times, and monitor entry activity. Code capacity and features depend on the specific module version and app capabilities.
7) What components are included with the SmartModule kit?
The kit typically includes the smart module unit, mounting hardware, batteries, and installation instructions. Your existing deadbolt and door hardware remain in place. Verify all components are included before beginning installation.
8) How difficult is the installation process?
Installation involves mounting the module to your existing deadbolt mechanism. Basic tools and mechanical aptitude are required. Follow manufacturer instructions carefully and verify proper operation before completing setup. Professional installation may be recommended for complex configurations.
9) How do I maintain and adjust the SmartModule?
Regular maintenance includes battery replacement and periodic cleaning of the module housing. Check mounting hardware tightness monthly. Lubricate the existing deadbolt mechanism as needed. Update firmware through the Yale Access app when available.
10) Are there other Emtek smart lock options available?
Emtek offers various smart lock solutions including complete smart deadbolts and handlesets. Browse our Emtek collection for integrated smart lock options that don't require existing hardware modification.
11) What environmental conditions affect SmartModule performance?
Extreme temperatures, humidity, and direct weather exposure can affect electronic components and battery life. The module is designed for interior installation. Ensure proper door weather sealing and avoid installation in unconditioned spaces when possible.
12) What are the key measurements I need before ordering?
Measure door thickness, deadbolt backset, and interior clearance space. Note your existing deadbolt brand and model if possible. Check that the deadbolt operates smoothly and is properly aligned before adding the smart module conversion.
