How Do Locks With Fingerprint Readers Work?

Powered by Z-Wave technology, the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch is the next generation of smart locks. Through the use of your fingerprint, this device activates with a key you can’t lose track of.

For greater convenience, this advanced locking system lets you deactivate your alarm as you access your home. It only takes a press of your fingertip. What makes this work is the new Z-Wave User Credential Command Class, a breakthrough in wireless technology.

Z-Wave Integrates Your New Smart Lock With Your Joliet Home Security System

For your fingerprint to open your door and deactivate your alarm, your locking system has to connect to your security system. The Z-Wave User Credential Command Class makes this happen and defines how things like passwords, PIIN codes, and fingerprints are managed and shared. 

Take a look at how this Z-Wave technology works within your home security:

  • Access control: Enables you to program permissions for multiple users and defines how identifiers like fingerprints can operate devices.
  • Automation: This new class communicates with other Z-Wave standards, letting your devices operate together in a fully automated home.
  • Interoperability between brands: The collaboration between Yale and ADT is feasible due to this shared wireless language between manufacturers.
  • Credential management and security: You can create, modify, or revoke credentials for Z-wave devices and maintain their security with encrypted transmissions.

Updating ADT Trusted Neighbor With Touch Recognition

You might have heard about ADT’s Trusted Neighbor feature and how it works with Google Nest cameras to recognize authorized visitors and grant them access to your Joliet home. You can now use Trusted Neighbor with your biometric door lock. After you establish permissions through the smartphone app, your trusted family, friends, and neighbors can gain access to your home with a tap of their finger.
