Get To Know ADTs New Fingerprint Door Lock

Famous for innovation in home security for over 150 years, ADT is thrilled to provide the most advanced smart locking systems. In collaboration with the Z-Wave Alliance and Yale, ADT now has a fingerprint door lock that integrates flawlessly with your home’s security. Unlocking your Appleton home has never been more effortless or secure. Discover how this technology works and design your ADT package with this innovative feature.

How Do Door Locks With Fingerprint Readers Work?

Powered by Z-Wave technology, the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch is the latest advancement in smart locks. Through the use of your fingerprint, this modern tool incorporates a key you can never misplace. But that isn’t the only way this new biometric device works. You have additional options for entering your home, including: 

  • Keypad code
  • Conventional key
  • Digital control via the ADT+ app
  • ADT Trusted Neighbor feature

For extra convenience, this new locking system allows you to turn off your security while you unlock your door. All it requires is a touch of your finger. Behind this functionality is a breakthrough in wireless technology, the new Z-Wave User Credential Command Class.

Z-Wave Connects Your New Smart Lock With Your Appleton Home Security System

To allow your fingerprint to unlatch your door and disarm your system, your smart lock has to communicate with your security system. The Z-Wave User Credential Command Class makes this happen and governs how credentials like keypad codes, passwords, and biometric data are transmitted and managed. 

Take a look at how this Z-Wave technology helps you:

  • Access control: Enables you to program permissions and access levels for various users and governs how credentials like fingerprints can manage devices.
  • Automation: This new class works with other Z-Wave classes, letting your smart systems function together in a fully automated environment.
  • Compatibility between brands: Utilizing one wireless protocol between different manufacturers lets devices work together, making the alliance between ADT and Yale successful.
  • Credential management and encryption: You can create, change, or remove credentials for Z-wave tools and keep them protected with encrypted communications.

Expanding ADT Trusted Neighbor With Biometric Access

You might have heard about ADT’s Trusted Neighbor service and how it works with Google Nest cameras to recognize approved users and let them in your Appleton home. You are now able to utilize Trusted Neighbor with your fingerprint door lock. Once you establish permissions through the ADT+ app, your trusted neighbors, friends, and family can gain access to your home with a touch of their finger. You may enable users to come in at designated times of day or following certain events, like the drop-off of a package.
