Recognized for leading the way in home security for greater than 150 years, ADT is pleased to provide the most advanced smart locking systems. In conjunction with Yale and the Z-Wave Alliance, ADT now features a fingerprint door lock that operates seamlessly with your home’s security. Accessing your Blacksburg home has never been more effortless or secure. Discover how this technology operates and customize your ADT package with this cutting-edge feature.

How Do Locks With Fingerprint Readers Work?

Powered by Z-Wave technology, the Yale Assure Lock 2 Touch is the latest innovation in smart locks. Using your fingerprint, this tool incorporates a key you can’t misplace. But that isn’t the only method in which this new biometric lock works. You have other options for accessing your home, including: 

• Keypad code
• Traditional key
• Remote control via the ADT+ app
• ADT Trusted Neighbor service

For greater convenience, this new locking system allows you to turn off your alarm when you access your home. It only takes a tap of your finger. What makes this feasible is the new Z-Wave User Credential Command Class, a breakthrough in wireless technology.

Z-Wave Connects Your New Lock With Your Blacksburg Home Security

To allow your fingerprint to unlock your door and turn off your alarm, your smart lock has to interact with your home’s security. The Z-Wave User Credential Command Class makes this possible and dictates how identifiers like PIN codes, passwords, and fingerprints are transmitted and managed. 

Here’s how this new Z-Wave technology helps you:

• Access control: Enables you to establish access levels for multiple users and governs how identifiers like fingerprints can manage devices.
• Automation: This new class functions alongside other Z-Wave standards, letting your devices function together in a fully automated environment.
• Compatibility between brands: The collaboration between ADT and Yale is feasible due to this shared wireless technology between manufacturers.
• Credential management and encryption: You can establish, change, or delete credentials for Z-wave devices and maintain their security via encrypted data transfers.

Expanding ADT Trusted Neighbor With Biometric Access

You might have heard about ADT’s Trusted Neighbor capability and the way it functions with Google Nest cameras to recognize authorized users and let them in your Blacksburg home. You may now use Trusted Neighbor with your fingerprint locking system. When you establish permissions with the smartphone app, your trusted neighbors, family, and friends can gain access to your home with a touch of their finger. You can allow users to come in at specified periods or after certain events, like the delivery of a package.
