FAQ
The Yale Smart keypad can only be paired to one lock. The Keypad will need to be disconnected from the Entrance lock and paired to the screen door lock. Once paired to the screen door lock, with the two locks connected to a bridge/s, then the DualDoor™ feature can be activated. When the screen door lock is unlocked/locked so will the entrance lock. If you do not have DualDoor™ setup, then it can only work with 1 lock.

It is also important to measure the distance from the lock to the 3pt locking bolts to ensure the correct product is used. This can be found in the 3 point lock measuring chart.
We have provided both screws and a double-sided sticker in your Keypad box to allow you to mount keypad in your desired locations. But we recommend that the smart keypad remains within bluetooth proximity (approx 5m direct sight) to the Yale lock they connect too. It is best to test this when installing. The closer the quicker response you will have between keypad and lock.
Note: Do not expose your smart keypad directly under rain/sunlight
Currently the DualDoor™ feature is only available to the Yale Unity series locks.
How-to Guides

- Ensure the lever (internal or external) is in the unlocked position.
- Close the door
- Lift the lever upwards.
- The auxiliary bolts on the 3 point kit at the top and bottom of the door will be thrown.
- When the lever is operated to open the door, the bolts will retract back in.
Troubleshooting
If your auxiliary bolts cannot be activated, it may mean that you may need to adjust the position of them, either up or down.
If you do adjust the bolts, your strikes may also need to be adjusted accordingly also.
