With the Assure Lock SL, homeowners can unlock their door with a simple entry of a chosen code on a backlit keypad, so even at night it's easy to enter your code quickly and accurately. Yale is proud to announce that this lock is 100% key-free, so there's no safety concern about losing your keys at work. On top of this, the Assure Lock SL allows for on-demand code creation and deletion. This means that, for example, if you're having a house part and you want to invite people over, but you don't want them to have free-entry to your house after that, simply create a code before and delete the code after the event. The lock features a motorized, silent, grade 2 certified deadbolt for maximum safety. Additionally, there is an optional upgrade module for the Assure Lock SL that allows integration with smart phone applications and [smart home systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreame-navo-smart-lock-a10).
