If you're planning to upgrade your home's security this spring, you've got plenty of deals to pick from right now during Amazon's Big Spring Sale. You'll see discounts on Arlo's security cameras and Nest's battery-powered video doorbell. However, the best first step is to get a smart lock for your door, and the Yale Assure Lock 2, which is the best smart lock according to CNET's experts, is on sale.

The Yale Assure Lock 2 is currently $114 off, bringing the sale price down to $76 in the satin nickel version. However, this deal won't stick around. Amazon's Spring Sale lasts until March 31, and deals during the sale come and go. If you're planning to buy this smart lock, you'll need to act fast. 

Our editors like that the Yale Assure Lock 2 is sleek with a simple, straightforward design that complements most door colors and styles. It's app-compatible, allowing you to unlock your door with just a few taps on your phone. In other instances, you can provide visitors with a numeric code that can be used on the lock's touchscreen.

You can also configure the lock to let you in with a quick fingerprint scan. As a fail-safe, you also have the option of using an old-fashioned physical key. There are Wi-Fi versions and Bluetooth versions.

The Wi-Fi versions also allow you to connect via Bluetooth, in case there's a Wi-Fi interruption. You can get real-time alerts about any activity.

Yale has a few other smart locks on sale on Amazon now, too. The Yale Security Assure Lock 2 Touch Deadbolt is on sale for $229, where you'll save about $41. The smart lock lets you unlock your door using your fingerprint and replaces a deadbolt.

The Yale Assure Lock 2 Touchscreen with Wi-Fi is on sale for $238, which saves you $42. It's ideal for vacation properties because you can share a temporary door code and have DoorSense automatically lock the door once it's closed. 

Why this deal matters

The Yale Assure Lock 2 is our top pick for smart locks, thanks to its sleek design and versatility, integrating with all of the major smart home platforms and offering multiple ways to unlock your front door. With a savings of $75, this deal is hard to ignore. Plus, tons of other options are on sale if you're looking to upgrade your home's security this spring without paying full price.Â
