Yale Smart Safe Installation Instructions
Step 1: Download the Yale Home App
Create an account to get started.
Available on the App Store and Google Play.
Step 2: Unlock Safe Using Key
Open door and leave open until setup is complete.
Tip: When the key is used to unlock, it must be used to lock.
Step 3: Insert Batteries
Open the battery compartment and insert 4 AA batteries (Alkaline only). Reinstall the cover.
Step 4: Add Safe to the Yale Home App
Set up Smart Safe
Tap "Set up a device" from the app menu. When asked, scan the Yale QR code on the inside of your safe door.
Tip: Once batteries are inserted, you have 5 minutes to complete this step. If your app doesn't find the safe, press and hold (5 secs) the reset button on the inside of the safe door until a buzzer is heard. After the buzzer, remove one of the batteries and re-insert it. Repeat step 4.
Set up with Connect WiFi Bridge*
Note the serial number located on the back of the Bridge. Plug the Connect WiFi Bridge into an INDOOR outlet within 3 meters of the Smart Safe.
Tip: For best connectivity, make sure that the Connect WiFi Bridge is in the line of sight of the front of the safe.
*Connect WiFi Bridge sold separately.
Step 5: Create Entry Codes
Once added to the Yale Home App, you can create and delete entry codes or share app access by tapping the Guest icon in the bottom menu.
Optional: Mount Safe For Added Security
There are 8 mounting hole locations on the Smart Safe. Use the included mounting template for guidance to secure the safe to the wall, shelf, or floor.
