Beyond access control

Identify & track cleaners

Each cleaner gets their own access code. Know exactly who entered, when they arrived, and when they left.

Help! The door code isn't working. I've tried it 3 times and nothing happens.
Checking lock status… Yale Assure 2 — Battery: 0%. Device offline.

I see the issue — the smart lock battery has died. No worries, there's an emergency lockbox!

It's on the left side of the garage, silver box at knee height. Code: 7741. There's a physical key inside.
