Known for innovation in home security for greater than 150 years, ADT is excited to provide the most advanced smart locking devices. In collaboration with the Z-Wave Alliance and Yale, ADT now has a fingerprint door lock that works flawlessly with your home security system. Accessing your St. Petersburg home has never been more effortless or secure. Discover how it functions and design your ADT package with this exciting new device.

How Do Door Locks With Fingerprint Readers Work?

The Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch with Z-Wave is the latest advancement in smart locks. Using your fingerprint, this tool activates with a key you can’t lose track of. But that’s not the only method in which this new biometric feature works. You have other options for accessing your home, including: 

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

For even more convenience, this biometric lock allows you to turn off your security while you access your home. All it takes is a touch of your finger. Supporting this functionality is a breakthrough in wireless communications, the new Z-Wave User Credential Command Class.

Z-Wave Connects Your New Lock With Your St. Petersburg Home Security System

To allow your fingerprint to unlock your door and turn off your alarm, your locking system must communicate with your home’s security. The Z-Wave User Credential Command Class enables this connection and governs how credentials like PIN codes, passwords, and biometric information are transmitted and managed. 

Here’s how this new Z-Wave technology works within your home security:

• Access control: Allows you to program access levels for various users and establishes how personal information like fingerprints can operate different components.
• Automation: This new class functions alongside other Z-Wave classes, letting your smart tools function together in a fully automated home.
• Interoperability between brands: The partnership between ADT and Yale is possible as a result of this shared wireless protocol between manufacturers.
• Credential management and encryption: You can set up, update, or revoke credentials for Z-wave components and keep them protected via encrypted communications.

Upgrading ADT Trusted Neighbor With Touch Recognition

You might have heard about ADT’s Trusted Neighbor capability and the way it functions with Google Nest surveillance to detect approved visitors and allow them in your St. Petersburg home. You are now able to utilize Trusted Neighbor with your biometric locking device. After you assign permissions via the ADT+ app, your trusted neighbors, family, and friends can gain entry to your house with a tap of their finger. You may enable visitors to enter at specified times of day or following certain occurrences, like the drop-off of a package.
