Assure Lock 2
across 3 reviews
3.5/5
mixed
Reviewers praise
  • Sleek, compact exterior design that reviewers consider among the best-looking smart locks available
  • Flexible configuration options including fingerprint reader, touchscreen or physical keypad, key or key-free, and multiple connectivity modules
  • Straightforward app with clear lock/unlock status, user management, activity logs, and useful automations like auto-lock and auto-unlock via geofence
Reviewers push back
  • Interior unit is large and bulky compared to the slim exterior, which reviewers find aesthetically displeasing
  • Battery life is inconsistent — one reviewer needed a replacement in five weeks, well short of the manufacturer's stated three-month estimate
  • The door sense module ships only in white regardless of lock color, creating a mismatch on darker door frames
A well-built, good-looking smart lock with solid app integration and flexible entry options, held back by average battery life and a bulky interior unit.
— best for: Homeowners who want a good-looking, feature-rich deadbolt with multiple unlock methods, solid app control, and Apple HomeKit support, and who are comfortable managing battery changes every one to three months.
