Its systems are simple to set up and seemingly long lasting (a sales advisor tells us some kits are still going strong after five years of work) with some general care such as replacing the batteries every 12 to 18 months (even if the app hasn’t notified you to). If you don’t have cameras installed, the alarm will act as a deterrent and alert any neighbours too, while you can decide whether to go back to your property or call the police.įor the quality of products, including connectivity and ease of setup, our researchers found Yale fares pretty well against some top names in the world of home security. You can arm and disarm your system via the app – with a handy geolocation feature to remind you when to set it – meaning if a sensor is triggered but you have cameras installed and see it’s a false alarm, you can turn it off. You’ll receive real-time notifications when motion is detected on any of the sensors, as well as tamper alerts for any outdoor sirens you have and you’ll be able to live stream footage from any indoor or outdoor cameras you have installed too. Yale’s is a completely self-monitored home security system.

From there, you can install all of your alarm accessories, such as motion sensors or contact sensors for windows and doors, and connect everything via the Yale Home app. With mostly positive reviews on Trustpilot and Amazon, a good customer service experience on our researchers’ part, and indications that it delivers where expected, Yale ranks well compared with other notable brands in this space and appears to be a modern home security system worth trying.Īs with most smart home security systems out there, Yale is powered through the Smart Hub, which is a standing unit that plugs into the mains and an ethernet cable for the internet connection. Geofencing features remind you to turn the system on should you forget in the morning rush, and you’ll receive live notifications when any sensors are disrupted or if someone approaches your house, alerting an outdoor camera, for example. For self-monitoring, the Yale Home app is compatible with smart home speakers Google Home and Amazon Alexa to control your system with your voice. You can get set up for less than £200 with a four-piece package, and installing basic products such as motion sensors, indoor cameras and the keypad (which come with all the fittings you need) is easily done, according to customer reviews.

And although some costs can creep in – say if you add on professional installation and a couple of additional cameras – the fact there are no monthly fees for a fully comprehensive smart home security system makes it work.

When it comes to DIY smart home security systems, Yale appears to be a fairly exemplary provider.
