Yale IA-320 Sync Smart Home Alarm 6 piece kit. Includes Sync Alarm Hub, External Siren, 1x Door/Window Contacts, 2x PIR Motion Detector, Keypad. Works with Alexa, Google Assistant & Philips Hue

I have searched intensively for a smart alert system. My goal was for a system that has (1) Resnobile price, (2) High quality, (3) Easy to manage by mobile. I have decided these three criteria because (1) I do not want to wast a lot of money for a small house and only two persons live on it. (2) I do not wast my time with a rubbish system and lose time, which is money. (3) I am new in the UK, and I do not know anyone who could turn the system off if I am away. I do not want to bother my Neighbors. I came through this system in Amazon many times. What put me off not to buy it is negative reviews and 3.5 Stars. I kept searching and searching until I needed a system for critical security concern. I bought this system one week ago ( I will return to update this review after six months ) and here are my comments : Pors (1) Reasonable Price compared to its features and quality. (2) Easy to install for someone familiar with technology in General ( Total time of Installation & Testing & learning features was 6 hours) (3) Endless of amazing settings makes you have 100% control over the system (4) You can control the system from a keypad or your mobile. You can control this system from anywhere! Do not worry if you forgot to arm your home. (5) Very Expandable, you can add devices as much as you need ( up to 40 ), which I found it give you the ability to design your system based on your need and cost. (6) Multiuser setting. For Example, I can give the estate agent a separate password, and I can know if they ( for any reasons ) entered my home. (7) Full ability to control notification by many methods, Email, SMS, or Push to your mobile. (8) A lot of people comment negatively on Yale mobile application. I found it AMAZING, but you need an average mobile. (9) Very high-quality material that you can feel it in every part of the system, Even the security stickers! (10) As this system give you instant alert on your mobile, buying security camera which can be accessed by mobile will give you full control of your home. (11) There is no subscription fees for their mobile application and online services. Coins (1) The person who is not familiar with technology will find this system complicated ! not because it complicated but because of its endless features. (2) The guide (which is printed in high-quality material ) is not comprehensive. They have tried to make it simple; they do not explain all features of their mobile application in their simple guide. Bottom Line: I would recommend it for any person who needs full control of a security system. Update after 5 months : I could not say more than THANKS YALE! This system worth every penny spent.

We purchased the Yale IA-320 Alarm with the additional 3 pack Motion Detector Kit AC-3PIR and the HD1080 WiFi Indoor Camera SV-DFFI-W as our previous alarm system had packed up after 15 years. On unpacking I found all the components to be of very good sturdy quality and aesthetically pleasing to blend in with our decor. I personally found the set up procedure was pain free and I didn't encounter any issues with registering any components to the base station and like wise with the physical installation of all components if you are competent with a drill you'll have no issues just ensure you choose the correct fixing for your application, honestly there is nothing technically demanding about it. The operation of the Alarm is simple and pleasing and depending on your home tech you'll have a number of ways to arm/disarm the system. We use the application on the iPhone and Apple Watch, Alexa or the physical Keypad and all work perfectly but what I do like is the geofencing feature where if you leave the house without arming the system it will send you a message to warn you and gives you the option to set it also you can log into the phone app and monitor your system from there. We added the indoor camera for addition protection plus it gives you the option to open the camera viewer should you have an alarm trigger whilst you are away from home then you can check if someone is in your property or if it's a false alarm, luckily we've not had to use that feature! You can configure the system so that each different components activated or deactivated depending on how you set the alarm for instance when we put the system in part arm only the motion detectors and door contacts on the ground floor are activated allowing us to move freely upstairs without the alarm activating and then when we leave the house and put it into full arm all motion detectors and door contacts are active across both floors giving full protection, further to that you can set up the system to give audible bleeps from the external siren so once you are outside it gives confirmation that the alarm is set. We did have an issue with the door contact so I contacted CS and the very next day we had the replacement in hand so kudos to the team for that quick response. I have looked into the battery replacement when that becomes required and it is a very easy procedure and all batteries are readily available from local supermarkets and DIY stores so the downtime on the system can be kept to a minimum in-fact the system sends you a notification that batteries are running low so you can pre plan and get them in ready for changing. All in all we are very pleased with every aspect of the alarm system thus far and if the complimentary service I've had with CS to date is anything to go by I don't see any issues going forward. We are just waiting for the Smoke/Heat detector AC-PSD to come into stock then we can complete our system

I managed to bag this kit on an Amazon daily deal around £200 and can see why the price is going up. It's brand new on the market and, as you would expect, has had its teething issues. Still, I have no issues with the hardware. The app works fine despite the fact it could do with some more features. I've only had this installed over a week so I'll try to keep my experience with this product to the point. At this stage I have not yet installed the external siren so I just have the internal siren in the hub and the app to notify me of movement. 1. Kit & Setup There is a hub, siren, keypad door sensor and two x PIR (NOT pet friendly) sensors. Everything is wireless except the hub which needs power and an ethernet connection. It does have battery backup however. Power and ethernet cables are provided. I purchased another door sensor separately and have two additional PIR sensors on the way. Setup was very easy. Plug the hub in, connect to broadband router, start taking battery isolation tabs out of equipment and mount them in place. It shouldn't take more than half an hour to mount two PIR sensors to the wall via screws and then sticky tab a door sensor and a keypad. It's worth noting at this point you can mount door sensors either by sticky pads or screws. I will be fixing the keypad via screws but for now I used 3M command strips until I have a final location. The casings of the devices do not appear to have fixing holes, but if you open them up there are fixing hole locations that just need to be easily punched out. It's a nice feature so you can decide whether to screw or sticky-pad the devices in place. All fixings come with the devices, just take note of the fixings for each item as they can differ a little depending on the device. I'm an android user and found the Yale Home app on the Play Store straight away. It doesn't get great reviews but this is likely down to the teething issues early on. It seems quite stable and has worked fine for me so far. There are a few steps to get setup but it's really straightforward. Some of the options you'd like to see often are buried fairly deep in the app, so hopefully that will be sorted soon. An example would be the device check. If you want to see the status of each device you need to go to Menu>Settings>Alarm Settings>Devices. Really it should just be at the top level of the menu for quick access. Once you've done the walk test with all devices in place you're good to go as everything comes paired already. 2. General Use This is really easy to use. I have not got Alexa and I don't plan on bringing her and her microphone into my home, but it all works fine without her. The app is configured as standard to sit in the notification bar. Although it may be annoying to some, you're reminded every time you look at your phone whether your house is armed, disarmed or part armed. I generally like my notification bar clean but I'm happy with this. It means when I am about to put my phone down and go to sleep, I am reminded that I need to set my alarm. I open the app, swipe to arm, hear the beeps of the internal siren/hub and then I can rest knowing downstairs is safe. So quick summary: Pros: Easy set up - both kit and software Easy to use Hub acts as internal siren - surprisingly loud Stylish and simple looks Cons: Early days for software - teething issues Not sure if external siren can be hardwired as I don't fancy changing the batteries every couple of years Only last night I had a door contact sensor issue. Everything was in place physically and I hadn't faffed around, but it was showing as an issue. In the device menu there wasn't a problem though. Maybe an app issue as nothing happened after we part-armed the house That's it for now really. Will try to update as my experience with this product develops. UPDATE: 19/09/2020 It's 4:40am and the smart hub is beeping loudly every 30 seconds. It has been doing this since yesterday afternoon when it was disconnected from the mains and put on battery backup. Apparently there is no way to disable the beep, even during sleeping hours, hence why I am awake now. I search online for the fault that comes up on the app - barely any results. There should be an override to this audible beep and maybe persistent push notifications from the app. It just needs charging but it won't stop beeping until it is fully charged. It is so loud I cannot sleep through it. As the app is poor anyway and the system isn't anything special, I will be looking to get rid and try another brand.

The Yale Sync Smart Home Alarm system has two purposes. Firstly as a traditional "ring the bell" alarm and secondly as a smart alarm which notifies you on your phone and allows you to arm/disarm your alarm when you're out. As a traditional "Bells only" non smart alarm it is definitely worth 5/5. It was quick and easy to install, all the fittings were provided. I purchased additional sensors so I have installed 5 PIRs, 5 Door /Window contacts, the external siren and the keypad. All of these took under 2 hours to install (ignoring the external siren - it was raining, that was done separately the following day). The 'built in alarm' in the hub is 100db of loud and more than adequate alone, the second one is more of a deterrent than something that's required. I have successfully setup the part arm and full arm modes with ease. Being able to set multiple pins is a great idea, obviously however the more pins you have the easier it is to guess and your alarm is only as secure as your weakest pin. I have a pin for myself and then 2 family members have different pins so if they need to disarm it they can, but I will also know who has been in my house if they do. The only issue I have had is occasionally when using the App occasionally it says the 'hub is offline'. Which means I cannot get notifications or remotely arm/disarm the alarm. This is easily fixed by turning the alarm off and on again physically, just a pain. This is an issue with any smart device, whether it be blinds, bulbs, alexas, alarms or smart cars. Hopefully overtime this becomes less of an issue. This model is far superior than their old Yale Smart Home Alarm system and operates at a much better range and is more reliable. Ultimately it comes down to this: If you want a "Bells Only" alarm this is great, if you want an "alarm with notifications" this is good but not bulletproof. If you want the most reliable service possible you'll need to buy an ADT alarm with subscription and even then there is a slight risk of it going 'bells only'. For context, my setup throught ADT would have been £800 installed and then £40 a month £930 more in the first year and then £480 a year more forever... So I'd definitely recommend this unless you're a Jewellery store or bank. 4/5 would definitely recommend for most people. Would be 5/5 if the hub never disconnected, however overtime the server technology should improve this, I'd say my hub uptime is around 95% from what has been monitored so far.

I have used another alarm system in my previous home and paid a monthly contract for over 5 years. When we moved I decided to analyse and see what are available in the market. At the outset the monthly paid alarm systems are expensive in long run, cheaper Chinese products does not tend have good support/instructions and Yale stood out for me with the smart system what they offer and a long standing brand. It does exactly what the monthly paid command center based alarm systems do - send you notification when there is movement in house (when armed), allows partial arming, device outside showing protected house and all this at one time low cost. Installation super easy, no wires to run, clean instructions and tech support. Only difficult part is installing the siren box outside as I had to go high up the ladder on a windy day. Yale also offer installation support (engineers to come and install) at an extra support price. I have tested the app several times now and really smart, you can arm, partial arm and disarm from a distance through your phone too (plus you can do the same with traditional keypad when you leave and enter) . There is lot of configurations you can play with. (don't worry most of it comes with a default value) . The motion sensors works perfect and really appreciate the walk tests I can do with my phone app. Feel good that I decided for Yale after comparing with others. Not disappointed at all .. Well done YALE.. !!

So we had a Verisure monitored alarm system. They hadn't noticed it wasn't working and had four major faults so we ditched them. Given the level of sophistication we wanted from a system we shopped around for a long time. ADT have had a smart home product for years but it's super expensive and not that versatile. Even the other Yale system is missing the smart home integration elements we were looking at. This kit isn't everything you need. we bought four extra door contacts, so we have the whole ground floor and upstairs windows covered with PIR and door / window contacts. AC-DC at £30 is quite expensive when you need four, especially given the tech inside is a transmitter with a magnet and sensor. The installation process was a doddle. I have uPVC windows and French doors and I was concerned about how to fit the contact due to the angle of the frame. as long as you fix the part with the battery to the non moving part, the angle isn't an issue. In total the physical installation took me about an hour with the additional door contacts. The system set up, which has do be done on a phone / table iOS or Android took about 30 minutes and I've been refining preferences for the rest of the day. I've set the alarm off (on purpose) and it was epic, the siren is super loud and the base station gives off a hell of a racket too. I have also integrated Alexa and my Philip's Hue system so when it went off I had the Siren, flashing Red lights throughout the house, you'd think DEFCON 5 had just been raised. The system sends push notifications for everything this could get annoying but you can choose for notifications to be on alarm or for each system trigger i.e. Tamper / set /unset / alarm. Additionally the system will also send an SMS to the main account holder in the event of an alarm in case you are out of mobile data range. This is a great product, the app works well. I'm already having some idea's for some further enhancements I will suggest but overall it does what it said it would do and more. I'll update this review once it's been in for a month with any additional usability comments. If you're looking for a new alarm and can't decide I would have no hesitation recommending this product.

*EDIT* After living with this for 3 months, I have had to downgrade it from 3 stars to 1 star. **KEY ISSUE 1 - The App** The app simply isn't good enough - in fact it's pretty hopeless. The app is really slow and not really worth the hassle plus, if the app updates, it logs you out without asking you to log in again and, you lose notifications from your system (I.e. the alarm could have been triggered and, you wouldn't know). **KEY ISSUE 2 - CRITICAL DESIGN FLAW** There is an evident critical design flaw with the smart hub. The smart hub can disconnect from the internet or, the Yale service be interrupted and, the hub will almost randomly go offline. Once it's gone offline, it isn't programmed to try again and, will permanently stay disconnected. When I contacted Yale "support", I was just advised to "turn it off then on again" - not much use if the reason you're using the app and smart hub is because you're away!!!! **KEY ISSUE 3 - CUSTOMER SERVICE** The CUSTOMER SERVICE IS WOEFUL. When I say woeful, I mean almost non-existent. There's not even any point contacting them. One of the first issues is the one in issue 2 - they told me to turn the hub off then on again when it goes offline, rather than fixing the issue. Furthermore, I have submitted 2 support requests as per the in-app process and, they have not responded to any of them - in 3 months!!!! ---------- Original Review: ---------- There's really only two systems out there worth considering - this Yale system or the Ring system. I bought the Yale system because, it includes the external siren, which I prefer and, I think it serves as a good deterrent. Having had a Yale alarm in the past, of course, the products are very well made and, the system is easy to use and install (although, the fittings I wasn't so keen on so, I used my own). That, unfortunately, is where the good news stops, due to the app. For all intents and purposes, this is clearly an alarm which has been adapted to suit an app, opposed to designed to work with an app. The app is slow, confusing, not intuitive and, you have to drill down through different menus all the time. I find it especially poor that you can't mix and match actions under disarmed, part-armed and fully armed settings. The worst of all though is that it doesn't integrate with Alexa or any home automation - only Hue. A big oversight - even a £10 sensor will have full integration with Alexa and apps like Smart Life. I fed all this back to Yale but, all I got back was a message about things I can do on the app, not features they had coming. This just got my back up. So, if you're looking for a well-made system with an intuitive app - get the Ring system and purchase an external siren separate. If you're looking for an alarm, where all you really want to do is arm or disarm it via your phone, get the Yale.

I had previously owned a Yale wireless alarm kit since 2005 and decided the main unit and the pir's were looking a little drab and dated. Apart from the odd false alarms, by critters in the Conservatory, the alarm had been impeccable. When it came to looking for a new alarm, I decided to look at some of the more expensive options available from other manufacturers, but there were some draw backs to these (location of fitment would be an issue to me, as I did not want to install the main unit in the hall and some units had modules required, so not really a diy option and fitters also charge a premium for installation!), as well as most stating that you require a yearly maintenance check, which I refuse to pay. Luckily for me, Yale had just released new information about this, the Yale Sync Alarm! It sounded all too good to be true, as it had everything I wanted in an alarm - Wireless, Easy to install, small main unit for easy placement and a good price. I purchased the Yale Sync alarm back in September 2018 and since then I have been extremely happy with my purchase and have not regretted it one bit. As others have mentioned, Yale did have a bit of nightmare a little while back, but to be honest I didn't seem to be affected by it, so I was one of the lucky ones. Recently I was a little frustrated by a change to the Yale app, whereby a notification would prompt you every time you opened the app! But this was resolved in an update that I received today, so no more unnecessary notifications on the phone! Otherwise the app works great and no issues so far with the hardware :-)

Ürün mukemmel.. ev villa gibi yerlerde yeteri kadar iş goruyor. Tatil vs gibi durumlarda aklınız evinizde kalmıyor. 260 dolar gibi bir fiyata geliyor şu an. Fazla mi diye dusunurseniz; Aidatli güvenlik sistemi satan bir firmadan aldığım taahhütlü fiyata göre parasını 5 ayda çıkarıyor. Kurulumu kolay.. Pir dedektör için cift tarafli bant çıkmadı ama isteyenler için vida dübel ekleri mevcut. Pir dedektorun algılaması mükemmel değil.yani 12 metreden sizi anında fark etmiyor. Algılıyor ama biraz geç ve yaklasmaniz,5-6 MT önünden geçmeniz fln gerekiyor. O yüzden kurarken kilit noktaları iyi seçmek lazım İç ve dış siren sesi gayet yeterli. Dış siren tarzı dikkat çekici. Uygulama pratik ve her şeyin telefonla ayarlanabilmesi cok iyi. Herhangi bir uyarıyı mail, SMS ve mobil uyarı şeklinde gönderiyor. Düşünmeden alın. Not:Yale home uygulamasini indirip kurmayı denedim hubda yazan seri no geçersiz uyarısı verdi akşam Türkiye temsilcisiligine mail attım ertesi sabah dönüş yapıldı. Telefon dilini İngilizceye alıp "Yale smart living alarm" uygulamasıni kurup buradan devam etmemiz gerektiği söylendi söylenen takimatlara uyunca sorunsuz ve hızlı şekilde kurdum. Alipta kuramayan arkadaşlar bu şekilde yaparlarsa problem yaşamazlar.

Pencere kenarında aynı hizaya getirmek için ek parça gerekecek.

Ürün kendinizin rahatça montajını yapabileceğiniz, ayarlarını telefonunuzdan kolayca ayarlayabileceğiniz kolaylıkta bir ürün. Ürünün bana göre en büyük eksisi kapılar be pencereler için olan sensörde pvc pencereler için uygun olmaması. Parçanın tekini yükseltmeniz gerekiyor. Bunun için ürünü almadan önce araştırma yaparak hazırlık yaparsanız iyi olur. Diğer ürünlerinin hepsi duvara ister vida ile isterseniz çift taraflı bant ile yapıştırın. Bütün parçaları içerisinde mevcut. Uygulamada alarm için 3 opsiyon var. Sistem aktif i, yarı aktif, tam aktif. Ben yarı aktifi gece evde iken şeklinde ayarladım. Hareket sensörleri iptal sadece kapı be pencere alarmleri aktif oluyor. Kendi uygulamasında programlama yok. Yani gece şu saatten sonra alarmi kur şeklinde otomatiğe alamıyorsunuz. Ben yapamadım yada bu özellik yok tam bilmiyorum ama kapı sensörünün olduğu kapı eğer açıksa alarmi kuramıyorsunuz. Evden çıktıktan sonra kendiniz telefon üzerinden yapmanız lazım. Key padi güzel ve şık sırıtmıyor.

Ürün iyi hoş ama bir çok eksiği var. Aynı markanın kilit sistemleri ile entegrasyon sorunları var

İki seneyi geçen bir süredir kullanıyorum. Bir bütün olarak değerlendirdiğimde memnun olduğumu söyleyebilirim. Uzunca bir süre android uygulaması üzerinden kullandıktan sonra ek bir tuş takımı daha satın alarak, iki tuş takımıyla kullanmaya başladım. En büyük sorunu bazen uygulamanın yavaş çalışması veya ev dışında olduğumuzda bir iki kere bağlanma sorunu yaşaması. Bu sorunların da modemimizden veya internet bağlantımızdan kaynaklanabileceğini sanıyorum. Ürünü, fazladan bir tedbir olsun diye, kesintisiz bir güç kaynağına da bağladım, o şekilde kullanıyorum. Sorunsuz bir şekilde kullanıyorum ve mutlu bir müşteriyim. Her ay güvenlik şirketine para ödemektense bu alarmı tercih ettim (ve ederim).
