Yale Kyra Pro Push-Pull Smart Door Lock

Overview

The Yale Kyra Pro is a slim push-pull smart lock for the wooden main door of a home or office: a push or pull opens the door and the fully automatic lock case throws the bolt on its own after the door closes. It opens by fingerprint, personal identification number (PIN) code, radio frequency identification (RFID) card or key tag, or a mechanical key, and app control can be added with the optional Yale Home kit.

Is it right for you?

• It fits a wooden door 40 to 100 mm thick with a 60 mm backset; it is not supported on metal, glass, double or sliding doors.
• It is not for a door directly exposed to the weather.
• App control is not built in: if you want the Yale Home app, add the Yale Home Bluetooth Module and the Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge, both sold separately.
• It stores up to 100 fingerprints, 100 PIN codes and 100 cards, which covers a household or a small office team.

Key features

• Fully automatic mortise lock case with adjustable automatic locking.
• Fake PIN entry, voice prompts and a silent mode.
• Anti-panic exit: the inside handle opens the door quickly in an emergency.
• Runs on 6 AA alkaline batteries, with a voice low battery warning that leaves about 50 further operations and a USB Type-C port for emergency power to open the door.
• Internal forced lock disables outside credentials while you are in.
• Tamper, intrusion and external forced lock alarms at 80 dB.
• Front body 78 x 390 x 50 mm and main body 76 x 390 x 60 mm; two mechanical keys.
• Finishes: Matt Black and Champagne Gold.

What else you need

• 6 AA alkaline batteries.
• Only if you want app control: the Yale Home Bluetooth Module and the Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge (one bridge per lock), both sold separately, plus a smartphone with the Yale Home app.
• Only if you want a remote control: the optional remote.

Installation

A locksmith or door hardware installer should fit it. The job involves cutting the wooden door for the fully automatic mortise lock case at a 60 mm backset on a door 40 to 100 mm thick, fitting the front and main bodies and aligning the strike so the automatic bolt engages, then enrolling fingerprints, PIN codes and cards.

Software and licences

The Yale Home app, a free download, works with this lock only when the Yale Home Bluetooth Module and the Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge are added; it then gives remote access, an activity feed and guest access.
