Yale needed to certify their new smart lock to the Matter standard to prove seamless cross-brand compatibility, protect their trusted brand and stand out in a crowded smart home market.
We guided Yale through end-to-end certification, combining hands-on pre-certification testing, expert engineer training and close collaboration to deliver multiple successful certifications quickly and smoothly.
We achieved Matter certification for Yale’s smart lock in just two weeks, setting the pace for a trusted partnership and multiple follow-on projects.
Yale has been a leading security brand for over 180 years, securing millions of homes and businesses worldwide with their innovative mechanical locks, alarms, safes and smart locks for front doors, interior doors and cabinets, package deliveries and more.
Yale approached us to certify their new smart residential door lock under the Matter standard. Matter, developed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance, provides a common protocol so that smart home devices from different manufacturers work seamlessly together.
For Yale, achieving certification meant:
Resillion guided us through our first Matter certification with clarity and efficiency. Their team’s communication and flexibility allowed us to move quickly without compromising quality. The training they provided also gave our engineers confidence to manage certifications in-house for future products.
Within 18 months, we supported four certification projects, demonstrating Yale’s confidence in us as their preferred lab partner.
Flexibility: When Yale’s timelines shifted, we adjusted our schedules to accommodate – avoiding project delays.
Clarity and collaboration: We explained tests and results in fluent English, backed by specification references and expert insights. Regular updates and open discussions ensured everyone stayed aligned.
Prompt support: When questions or issues arose, our team responded quickly with full details, specification references and immediate follow-up calls when needed.
Technical competence: In addition to spec clarifications and support, our engineers provided insights on best practice and resolutions – we didn’t just hand over a report.
Relationship building: The face-to-face pre-certification testing helped strengthen collaboration, creating a level of trust that has supported ongoing work.
Together, these qualities made the certification process smoother and less stressful for Yale, helping them bring products to market faster and with fewer obstacles.
Working with Yale on Matter certification has been a great example of partnership. We don’t just run tests and hand over a report — we collaborate closely, adapt to their timelines, and help resolve issues quickly. That flexibility and responsiveness is what makes the difference for customers like Yale.
During training and testing, Yale identified Wi-Fi connectivity as an area where field issues could arise. We proposed and delivered a proof of concept Wi-Fi interoperability test to demonstrate how we could help reduce those issues. The positive results opened the door for expanding our support beyond Matter certification into full Wi-Fi performance and interoperability testing.
