| Yale Unity locks (linked front and screen door) | Partly works | Linked lock's state doesn't update; linked actions unsupported by librarySaved copyThe problem The new Yale integration is functioning well and is quite fast, but I’ve noticed a bug. I have both the Unity Front Door Lock and the Unity Security Screen Door Lock, and they are linked together. The issue is that when you lock or unlock one of these locks, the other one follows suit, but the status of the second lock isn’t updated in Home Assistant. To refresh the status, you have to open the Yale Home app and check the associated lock. As a result, even if both locks are actually in the same state, one may show as locked while the other shows as unlocked. ### What version of … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #125001 · 2024-09 | |
| Yale YDM7116A with home access module | Won’t be supported | Partly in Home Jam shown only when lock is paired directly to HomeKit, not via Home Assistant | Jammed state not exposed; websocket API doesn't report itSaved copyForgot to add that I'm using Yale YDM7116A with the home access module (white). I was able to get the state reported on homekit if I added the lock directly into homekit via the QR. Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #135092 · 2025-01 |
