J20A
The Yale J20A RFID Rim Smart Lock allows you to remotely control and monitor your door's lock status from anywhere using the Yale Access App. With multiple access options including a pin code, RFID card, and the optional Yale Access app, you can easily grant access to people you trust. The app also includes an activity feed that tracks when and how your door was locked or unlocked, or if there was a break-in or damage attempt. Additionally, you can connect the lock to your smart home system for even more convenient control.

About Yale Access
Yale’s smart-lock systems all come from the same place: the cloud platform originally built by August. In North America this platform is used through the August and Yale Access apps, while everywhere else it appears as the Yale Home app — but the underlying technology is essentially the same. The only “real” API behind these products is the August Developer API, which is the official gateway to that shared cloud (though it is restricted and mostly US/Canada–only). Confusion comes from the naming: Yale Access (US/CA), Yale Home (rest of world), and Yale Connect (the Wi-Fi bridge hardware or, in some regions, a separate older Yale ecosystem). Some locks only work with one ecosystem, while others can switch by using different modules, but in most modern cases the smart features are powered by the August/Yale cloud, just presented under different brand names depending on the region.
