Recognized for leading the way in home security for the past 150 years, ADT is excited to deliver the latest in smart locking devices. In collaboration with Yale and the Z-Wave Alliance, ADT now features a fingerprint door lock that integrates seamlessly with your home security system. Gaining access to your Medford home has never been more effortless or secure. Learn how this technology functions and design your ADT package with this exciting new feature.

How Do Locks With Fingerprint Readers Work?

The Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch with Z-Wave is the latest advancement in smart locks. By using your fingerprint, this tool incorporates a key you can’t misplace. But that’s not the only method in which this new biometric feature works. You have additional options for unlocking your home, including: 

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

For even more convenience, this advanced locking system permits you to deactivate your alarm when you enter your home. All it requires is a press of your fingertip. Supporting this functionality is a breakthrough in wireless communications, the new Z-Wave User Credential Command Class.

Z-Wave Integrates Your New Lock With Your Medford Home Security

To allow your fingerprint to unlatch your door and deactivate your alarm, your new lock needs to interact with your security system. The Z-Wave User Credential Command Class enables this connection and dictates how identifiers like biometric data, passwords, and keypad codes are managed and communicated. 

Here is how this Z-Wave technology works within your home security:

• Access control: Lets you program permissions for various users and governs how credentials like fingerprints can operate different components.
• Automation: This new class works with other Z-Wave classes, allowing your smart tools to function together in a fully automated environment.
• Interoperability between brands: The partnership between Yale and ADT is feasible thanks to this shared wireless protocol between brands.
• Credential management and encryption: You can set up, update, or delete credentials for Z-wave components and maintain their security using encrypted transmissions.

Expanding ADT Trusted Neighbor With Fingerprint Control

You might be familiar with ADT’s Trusted Neighbor service and how it operates with Google Nest cameras to detect approved visitors and allow them in your Medford home. You are now able to utilize Trusted Neighbor with your biometric locking device. Once you assign permissions through the smartphone app, your trusted family, friends, and neighbors can gain entry to your house with a touch of their finger. You can permit users to come in at designated hours or after certain triggers, like the drop-off of a package.
