Yale Residential YRD624 Pro 2 Deadbolt Touchscreen Lock, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Technology, SC1 5-Pin Key Override

1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers standard US residential entry doors and the thinner older interior doors. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inches, common on some custom or solid wood entries, is outside the range and the tailpiece will not seat correctly.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are both built into the YRD624, so remote access through the Yale Access app, Alexa and Google works out of the box without adding a smart module. That is the difference between this model and the base Assure Lock 2, which ships Bluetooth-only and needs a Wi-Fi, Matter or Z-Wave module purchased separately.

Two ways in. A physical key override is included, cut to an SC1 5-pin keyway, and you can also jump the lock with a 9V battery held to the exterior contacts long enough to punch in your code. Because it runs on batteries rather than house power, a power outage does not lock you out at all.

The override cylinder is an SC1 5-pin keyway, the standard Schlage residential keyway, so a locksmith can key it to an existing SC1 system or key several units alike across a building. That is the practical reason a property manager picks this over an electronic deadbolt with a proprietary or Kwikset KW1 override.

Not as a like-for-like. The YRD624 is a single-sided keyed deadbolt: keypad and key override outside, thumbturn-style interior, so it will not keep key-both-sides security on a door with glass beside it. It uses the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore, so it physically installs, but if you need keyed egress control keep a double cylinder unit such as the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder or the Hager 3214.

The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, matching the YRD624 on ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and on being an electronic deadbolt rather than a mechanical one. The YRD624 differs in how access is delivered: it uses a touchscreen keypad with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and an SC1 5-pin key override, while the KP400 pairs its keypad with a programmable remote. Choose by whether the opening needs app and phone control or a simple code-and-remote entry.

The YRD624 is a touchscreen deadbolt with a thumbturn-style interior and a key override on the outside, not a double cylinder lock. For key-both-sides, the Dexter DB2000-DCT is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the YRD624 fits, and the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway over that same range with a fire rating. Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The YRD624 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. For Grade 1, the Accentra D111 is a single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset, and the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. All three are mechanical cylinder x thumbturn locks, so keypad and app access does not carry over.

The YRD624 uses an SC1 5-pin key override cylinder, so it does not accept an interchangeable core. The Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core, covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with an interchangeable core and a 2-3/4 inch backset. Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in a dull chrome US26D finish.

The YRD624 fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For thicker stock, the Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder heavy duty deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock, cylinder by blank, covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both are mechanical, so keypad entry does not carry over to the thicker door.

The YRD624 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 residential hardware. Where a fire rating is called for, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and a fire rating, over 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder, also fire rated over that range. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.

It carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certification, the mid tier for residential security and cycle durability, with a metal build and a matte keypad that resists fingerprint smudging on the code. Grade 2 is the same rating as mechanical rental-grade deadbolts like the Arrow DBX61 and the Cal-Royal CB160. For a heavier commercial opening you would step up to a Grade 1 mechanical deadbolt instead, such as the Design Hardware D1 Series.

The YRD624 is built for residential use, and its management model is app based per lock: codes are shared through the Yale Access app in Bluetooth range, with unlimited trackable entry codes. That suits single homes and small landlord portfolios. For multifamily or hospitality where you want RFID credentials and a property system behind it, the Dormakaba Nova-D RFID multihousing electronic deadbolt or the Saffire LX-D with BLE and electronic lock override are the multihousing-oriented options.

Yes, through DoorSense. Auto-Lock only fires once DoorSense confirms the door has closed, so the bolt is not thrown into the jamb face on a door that got left ajar. Paired with optional Auto-Unlock, the lock handles both directions without touching the keypad or a phone.

HomeKit is supported, so the lock shows up in the Apple Home app and answers to Siri alongside lighting and thermostats. Remote control through HomeKit requires an Apple TV or HomePod set up as a home hub. Separately, the built-in Wi-Fi gives you remote access through the Yale Access app without needing a hub at all.

If you do not need cloud connectivity, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, and the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt that mounts to the door face rather than into a bore. The YRD624 is the choice when you actually want the touchscreen keypad plus remote code management; strip that away and a standalone keypad or a plain mechanical deadbolt is less to maintain.

That is the main reason people put this on a rental or a second home. You can issue unlimited individual entry codes through the Yale Access app, each tied to a person and trackable, so you see who came in and you can pull one code without rekeying anything. Codes are stored locally on the lock and Bluetooth traffic is encrypted, and two factor authentication plus lost phone controls sit on the account side.

The Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with key override, light duty, using a mechanical code rather than a network connection. The Codelocks CL2200 adds electronic code entry as a surface deadbolt in brushed steel and is rated medium duty. The Yale YRD624 differs by carrying Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with a touchscreen reader, and by fitting a bored 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep instead of mounting on the door surface.

The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock, non-keyed, with a blank plate by thumbturn function and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt. Both leave the outside face without a keyed cylinder, where the Yale YRD624 is a keyed lock with an SC1 5-pin key override behind the touchscreen.

Neither is a lock. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike with latchbolt by deadbolt functions and a straight lip for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer. The BEST 8T is a tubular deadbolt tube component from the T Series. The Yale YRD624 is a complete touchscreen deadbolt with an SC1 5-pin key override; those three are strike, spacer and component parts that go with a lock rather than in place of one.

The YRD624 comes in 613 Oil-Rubbed Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel and BSP Black Suede Powder Coat. On the mechanical side, the Emtek #11 Tuscany is a lost wax cast bronze deadbolt with cylinder x thumbturn function, and the Bravura 310B Elite is a Grade 2 traditional round deadbolt with the same cylinder x thumbturn function. For a squared trim instead, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt.

The Brinks Raleigh Series transitional round single cylinder deadbolt and the Brinks Mendocino Series contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt both use a 4 way adjustable backset, and the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are cylinder x thumbturn mechanical locks, so a code keypad and app control are not part of them the way they are on the YRD624.

The DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt, wired to release from an access control system rather than carrying its own credential reader. The Detex DX Series provides hinge side locking dead bolts with multi-point security. The Yale YRD624 is self-contained: a touchscreen keypad with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and battery power, with no panel wiring involved.

The YRD624 is Grade 2. Among Grade 2 mechanical single cylinder deadbolts, the Arrow DBX61 and the Cal-Royal CB160, which adds a tamper-resistant cylinder guard, both use cylinder x thumbturn function, as do the Callan Model 200S-G2 with round trim and the Bravura 910 rectangle deadbolt. Deltana CL200LA is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset. Mixing these with the YRD624 keeps the same grade across a set of doors while reserving keypad entry for the openings that need it.

Only if the door is prepped for a mortise pocket. The Emtek 2050 is a European mortise deadbolt with an integrated roller latch in square trim, and the 2051 is the round trim version; both are cylinder x thumbturn. The Yale YRD624 installs into a bored deadbolt prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, so a door cut for one will not accept the other without new prep.

The Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt, combining the latch and deadbolt in one assembly. The Baldwin Estates 8011 is a contemporary 1-5/8 inch double cylinder deadbolt with entrance function. The Yale YRD624 is a deadbolt alone, so a separate knob or lever is needed alongside it.

Three: 613 Oil-Rubbed Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, and BSP Black Suede Powder Coat. That is the full range, so if you are matching a building's existing lever and hinge finish, oil-rubbed bronze and satin nickel are the two that pair with standard door hardware, and the black suede powder coat is the option for contemporary black trim.
