Allow Yale Unity Lock to deadlock

Hello. I am successfully using the Yale integration to lock and unlock our front door. The only thing missing is the ability to deadlock the Yale Lock. It would be great if this functionality could be added to the integration. In the Yale app long press & hold will deadlock the lock. To automate this based on home occupency would be very useful. Thanks :slight_smile:

What is the difference between lock and deadlock?

Hey Tom,

This lock has a triple lock or deadlock feature designed for glass doors, making it impossible to open from either side without proper access. Even if someone breaks the glass, they won’t be able to reach through and unlock it.

  • When it’s locked, it can’t be opened from the outside but can be opened from the inside.
  • When it’s deadlocked, it can only be opened via the app or key fob, both from the inside and outside.

My previous lock also had a deadlock/triple locking function but required a key.

Oh right. Duh. The same as deadlock with a key. I should have figured that.
