Leading lock specialist Yale, has launched
the brand new Conexis® L1 Smart Door
Lock that puts users fully in control of their
door, allowing them to configure, control
and unlock the door all from a smartphone
via a Bluetooth low energy App.
» » WHEN INVESTIGATING
the smart home market,
research revealed 62% of
consumers want the ability
to remotely lock and unlock
their door from anywhere at
anytime*. The Conexis® L1
does just that, enabling users
to create and send mobile
keys to family and friends,
and keep track of who comes
and goes simply using
their smartphone. Thanks
to the new Twist and Go
functionality, homeowners
can also twist their phone 90
degrees to unlock the front
door, as well as having the
choice of key tag, key card or
phone tag.
Suitable for PVCu and
composite doors with a
thickness of 44-70mm, the
lock has been specifically
designed for quick and easy
installation. It is compatible
with most 92mm centred
multipoint locks on the
market and only requires a
single screwdriver and tape
measure to fit.
As such, Yale is advising
locksmiths to invest in the
future of door hardware,
capitalising on the new
lucrative revenue stream and
providing customers with a
robust security offering.

to join the Yale Smart Living
range. We’re seeing huge
growth in the connected
home industry, and this
is just one of the products
designed to give locksmiths
an easy entry point into the
market place.
“Feeling safe and secure is
a must for any homeowner.
In addition to a tamper
alarm, the Conexis® L1 is
PAS24 accredited, providing
the superior standard of
security that Yale is famous
for and also giving locksmiths
confidence in the quality of
the technology.”
When linked with a Yale
wireless module, users can
connect the Conexis® L1 to
other Yale smart products,
including the Yale Smart
Home Alarm or Smart CCTV
range, which can then be
controlled via the free Yale
