WorksWorks reliably via zigbee dongle and zigbee2mqtt; Yale Connect hub poor
Saved copy
I have a YRD226, I've started with the zigbee module + "yale connect hub", yales locks are solid and works reliably but the yale connect is total garbage ! The best you can do to optimize your experience is to build a zigbee network with a zigbee usb dongle + mqtt broker + zigbee2mqtt. WIth this setup you just need to install a z2m plugin in your HB instance and setup the lock on you Home App; Also you'll open space for a lot more devices like sensors and switches.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
