They are sleek and sophisticated. You no longer need to worry about forgetting your keys because you just need to remember a combination. The Yale keyless entry locks offer touchscreens. The [touchscreen lever lock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xiaomi-smart-door-lock-m40) feels like it's a smartphone but for residential home security. Yale Real Living has integrated this seamlessly into a variety of [Z-Wave](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kwikset-1) home control and security systems. It makes everyday living easier and feel much more safer. It measures 6.2 inches x 2.8 inches x 1.5 inches and will fit doors with a door thickness of 1 3/8 inches to 1 3/4 inches. It also includes an adjustable latch. This is definitely one of the coolest door locks I have ever seen. I think this would be absolutely perfect for university and college residences, as long as you could change the codes easily. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Keyless Residential Locks:** Opportunity to develop more advanced, intuitive touchscreen interfaces for residential locks. - **Z-wave Home Control:** Opportunity to integrate Z-Wave technology into a wide range of home control systems. - **Adjustable Smart Locks:** Opportunity to develop smart locks that can be adjusted to fit a variety of door thicknesses and latch types. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Security Industry:** Opportunity to incorporate touchscreen technology and Z-Wave compatibility into home security solutions. - **Smart Home Industry:** Opportunity to create more seamless and intuitive integration of smart lock systems within overall smart home control systems. - **Residential Real Estate Industry:** Opportunity to modernize residential locks and appeal to tech-savvy renters and home buyers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Security System Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-assure-lock-2-touch-with-zwave.md) - [Next-Gen Smart Lock Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-assure-lock-2.md) - [Discreet Retrofit Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-linus-smart-lock-2-lite.md) - [High-Tech Residential Security Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/residential-security-system.md) - [Rental-Friendly Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-approach-lock.md) - [WiFi-Enabled Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-assure.md) - [Omni-Compatible Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yale-smart-lock-with-matter.md) - [Tubular Handle Smart Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lockly-styla.md) - [Rich Tonal Touchscreen Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/assure-lock-2.md)
