Yale ByYou H Pro

The Yale ByYou H Pro is the horizontal rim lock in Yale’s ByYou Pro family. That is the whole point of the H in the name: the main body mounts across the door rather than up and down it, which is what suits doors where there is width to spare but little height between glazing bars or panels.

A rim lock fixes to the inside face of the door instead of inside its edge, so it fits doors that were never prepared for a mortice or a deadbolt.

What works in Apple Home

• Lock and unlock the door from the Home app, and see the current state.
• Get a notification on every lock and unlock event.
• Use the lock in scenes and automations, and control it with Siri.

Siri asks you to authenticate before it unlocks the door. That is how Apple Home treats every lock, and it is not a limitation of this model.

Ways in

Fingerprint, a PIN code, an RFID key tag or the Yale Home app. The RFID tag is the useful one for anybody in the household without a smartphone.

Connectivity

The lock itself is not on your Wi-Fi. Remote access runs through the optional Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge, which needs a 2.4 GHz network. Budget for the bridge if you want to check the door while you are out.

Before you buy

Measure the inside face of the door and the position of the keep before ordering. The ByYou V Pro is the same lock in a vertical body, and it is the one to choose when the door is narrow rather than short.

Yale sells the ByYou range through regional sites and the specification varies by country, so confirm Apple Home Key support on your local listing.
