Nest, the purveyor of digital security systems and connected home devices, collaborated with Yale Locks on a touchscreen deadbolt smart lock. The Nest x Yale Lock allows remote unlocking and passcode unlocking (it holds up to 250 passwords), which can be set to specific times of the day for those with limited access. The app also connects to other Nest safety devices, like the video doorbell and security system, so users can deactivate the alarm as they open the door, and so they can monitor activity remotely.
