Only one hiccup in installing- I read the quick start guide and the manual before installing, but I managed to miss the last part of the manual that said the batteries should be removed when installing or uninstalling the network chip. I wasn't able to budge the chip once it was installed, so I removed and replaced the batteries and hoped for the best. Everything worked out, but it would have been a real pain in the neck to take the lock off the door just to redo the network chip.
The finish and look of this lock is superb. Very hefty feel, it really seems like quality construction. Installation was very quick; I was replacing a standard deadbolt, the only adjustment I had to make was to adjust the mortise for the faceplate. Our old deadbolt face plate didn't sit quite flush and the metal was thinner, so when I installed the Yale Real Living deadbolt, I had to shave off a little bit of wood for it to sit flush. The rest of the physical installation went quickly, the only problem was the network chip installation mentioned above.
Once the batteries were installed, it was a bit tricky to set up the programming. I set the master code, then went about adding it to my Vera 3. The first time I set it up, I plugged Vera in close to the door, but once I saw the lock was added, I moved it away before all of the settings were completed (unbeknownst to me). I kept getting a failure (Failed at: Getting secure classes), so I had to reset the deadbolt. I tried to disconnect from the network, but the lock wouldn't do it properly until Vera handled the reset. The second time, I left Vera near the door for about 10 minutes until I verified the settings were correct, and then moved it back into its usual home.
Once Vera had control of the lock, adding codes and adjusting the settings was a breeze. The deadbolt responds quickly to commands from Vera through Mios and through my phone via Home Buddy.
