Yale Expands Smart Storage Line With Launch of the Brand’s First Smart Safe

NEW HAVEN, CT – January 10, 2023 – Today leading smart home security brand Yale Home launched two new products: the Yale Smart Safe and Yale Smart Safe with Wi-Fi. Designed to protect valuable belongings including important documents, jewelry, collectibles and more, the Smart Safe can be conveniently controlled with the Yale Access app, built-in keypad, or the included traditional key, and lets customers monitor activity from the Yale Access app for extra peace of mind. The addition of these new products builds on Yale’s smart storage offerings and extends the brand’s legacy of bringing trusted smart home security products and services to the home – be it inside, outside or around it.

“We’re living in an ever-changing world where we are encouraged to be brave and fearless, which is what the Pantone Color of the Year 2023, PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta, represents,” said Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute^™. “Powerful and empowering, PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta injects excitement and drama into the home, welcoming anyone and everyone with its animated spirit, energizing interior and exterior environments with its dynamic vibrancy and beguiling presence. We are thrilled to partner with Yale Home to enable their customers to bring this animated crimson red shade to their front door.”

The Smart Safe works out of the box with Bluetooth, allowing customers to control and monitor the safe from their phone within range. Apple HomeKit technology is also built-in, ideal for Apple Home customers with the appropriate Apple Home hub, such as a HomePod, HomePod Mini or Apple TV. The Smart Safe with Wi-Fi comes with a Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge in the box, letting customers unlock the safe from anywhere using the Yale Access app. Additionally, the Wi-Fi enabled safe can be controlled with popular voice assistants including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri. Customers can ask their voice assistant to check the status of the safe and unlock it for hands-free control. Both models let customers share and manage access to the safe with trusted friends and family, convenient for when the primary user is away.

Built with security top of mind, the Smart Safe is made of steel and provides a robust set of security features including an anti-pry laser-cut door, two anti-saw bolts and alarms that will sound with tampering or multiple incorrect attempts to enter the code. Additional security features include two-layer encryption, two-factor authentication, and a feature to disable the safe to keep it secure if the user loses their phone. For even more security, users can set up Verified Access to require biometric verification when unlocking the safe with the Yale Access app.

Whether for a homeowner, renter or vacation property host, the Smart Safe adds another level of protection over life’s most valuable possessions.
