Looked through Amazon reviews and prior posts on this subreddit and can’t seem to find a reliable smart lock option.
Was looking at the Yale Assure 2 Touch but appears to drain batteries at a rapid clip, several folks on reddit have recommended ultraloq or liberty but those were shredded on Amazon reviews.
Anyone have a trusted, reliable option that doesn’t require additional drilling and doesn’t drain batteries?
Thanks for your time!

Aqara U100! Has the most ways to open, takes normal AA batteries and I got about 6 months out of a set. Obviously depends on your door but mine didn’t require any drilling. Price is good and it’s actually easy to get, unlike the Schlage has been lately.
I have the Yale assure 2 WiFi and love it! I have only had it installed since June and haven’t had to change the batteries yet. I was initially thinking Z-wave because the rest of my smart lights on Z-wave 800 which has amazing distance but with the WiFi version and the Yale APP it is super easy to use and my wifi loves it because she can make a temporary code via the app for the dog walker that automatically becomes active for a specific time each week.
I am a little salty they released the assure 2 plus which allows you to use your iPhone directly or a finger print to open it shortly after I purchase mine.
I’ve used Yale assure for several years now and replace the batteries like once a year
