Introducing the Yale Touch Lock

1 min read

The Yale Touch Lock allows customers to unlock and disarm, or lock and rearm, their ADT+ system with just a touch of their finger.

At ADT, we believe that home security should be simple, smart and seamlessly connected — because true protection starts with peace of mind. That’s why we continue to expand the ADT+ ecosystem with innovative, easy-to-use solutions that give people more control, confidence and peace of mind.

Today, I’m excited to share the launch of the Yale Touch Lock, the first Z-Wave smart lock with fingerprint control. Developed in collaboration with Yale and powered by Z-Wave 800 Series technology, it is also the first lock to support the newly introduced Z-Wave User Credential Command Class. This feature allows customers to unlock and disarm, or lock and rearm, their ADT+ system with just a touch of their finger — offering a smarter, faster and more personal way to secure your home.

We are also introducing Home | Away, the first presence-detection feature in ADT+. This new functionality uses the location of phones in a customer’s system to detect when a home is empty or occupied. When everyone leaves, the system automatically switches to "Away" mode. When someone returns, it shifts back to "Home." It takes the guesswork out of everyday routines and makes protection automatic.

These updates are paired with a refreshed ADT+ app experience. We have simplified navigation and made the interface more intuitive, helping customers stay connected to what matters most with greater ease.

And this is only the beginning. We are continuing to evolve the ADT+ ecosystem to meet the changing needs of modern households. Whether by introducing new capabilities or refining the details that matter, we are committed to building a smarter, more responsive future for home security.

Thank you for being on this journey with us.
