The Linus ® Smart Lock L2 from Yale has been designed with the modern-day homeowner in mind , offering a world-class lock experience . Faster and stronger than the previous generation , the Linus ® L2 has the addition of an Activity Feed , Smart Alerts and notifications through the popular Yale Home app , allowing homeowners to conveniently keep track of their door activity at any time .
From sharing virtual keys or codes with trusted individuals , to the handy Auto-Lock and Auto-Unlock features which allow homeowners to automatically lock and unlock their doors as they approach using geofencing technology , the Linus ® L2 provides users with a more convenient experience surrounding their door security .
The Linus ® L2 also boasts a range of new features that help to boost the convenience of a smart lock even further . With connectivity via the Yale Home app , homeowners can now easily schedule their device to lock or unlock at certain times of the day . This allows the homeowner to create a personalised home security schedule tailored to their family life , ensuring they can easily come and go during the day , but still have heightened security overnight .
Working seamlessly with the Linus ® L2 , users can tap the Yale Dot ® with their phone to unlock or lock the door – without needing to open the Yale Home app . This convenient feature means users can quickly and easily unlock their door in a way that suits them . For example , users can leave a Yale Dot ® on their car dashboard to unlock their door
quickly if it is raining – a very handy feature for busy families .
The new Linus ® Smart Lock L2 also benefits from :
• Built-in Wi-Fi , meaning homeowners no longer need to buy an additional Connect Wi-Fi Bridge to benefit from remote functionalities
• Rechargeable battery pack , providing up to six months of power on a single charge and low battery alerts for added reassurance
• Improved sustainability , with a 20 % smaller size than the previous generation ensuring less material usage
• Leading voice assistant connectivity , integrating seamlessly with Amazon Alexa , Google Home and major smart home brands to easily control the smart lock
Whilst voice assistant integration will offer additional convenience for your customers , the Linus L2 ® has stepped up the connectivity by offering interoperability with the entire Yale Smart Security Ecosystem . This includes the Yale Smart Alarm , Smart Camera Range and Smart Video
Doorbell , as well as the Smart Storage range and Smart Gate and Garage opener , operated through the intuitive Yale Home app .
