Yale

Yale has been a trusted name in security for over 180 years. Its Wi-Fi connected smart deadbolts and retrofit locks are a practical fit for short-term rentals, because access can be managed remotely instead of through key handovers.

Hosts can issue a unique entry code for each stay and set it to expire after checkout, so a guest's access ends with their booking. Locks can be monitored and managed from the Yale app, and selected models work with wider smart-home ecosystems.

The entry product for hosts is the Approach Lock with Connect Wi-Fi and Keypad at $179.99. Full deadbolt bundles aimed at rental hosts run from about $259.99 to $309.99. Yale offers free ground shipping on orders over $50.
