The Level Lock is an elegant and easy-to-install smart lock that integrates with Apple's HomeKit. It can be connected directly to smart devices via Bluetooth 5.0 LE. You can also control the lock via the Level app. Just a few simple toggles and you can change lock state.
Level is designed to be installed in homes that have standard, 1 3/4-inch thick doors. It comes with a standard deadbolt and includes a deadbolt extender as well a folio equipped with access cards. A HomeKit hub is the key to obtaining a Level lock, such as an Apple TV 4K/HomePod mini.
Renters might find the Level Lock useful because of its invisible design. It comes at $229, which is quite expensive. The product can only be used with an Apple iPad/iPhone. This can be an issue if you don't already have a HomePod or HomePod mini.
Level uses an internal locking motor and two-piece exterior keyhole that combines the convenience of a standard deadbolt with a more robust design. There are several finishes to choose from, including polished brass and satin nickel. While it is not as visually appealing as other smart lock models, the lock has more functionality than most other models.
Level Home app lets you control your lock remotely from your phone. You can also set up automations for your home. It also supports a HomeKit QR code. These features enable you to share your lock with guests or other users, and allow you check in even if you're not there. The app can notify you if you open the door and someone attempts to get in.
Auto-Lock is another feature that unlocks the door automatically when you are away. The Level app or Siri can be used to control the lock. You can also set a date and time when you want the lock to be available.
The Level smartlock comes with a high price tag, as you would expect. The Level smart lock is 329 dollars more than other locks from Home Depot. The Level smart lock integrates with Apple devices and is easy to install.
A Level lock offers great security and besides its obvious appeal. It has a BHMA AAA rating. Its resistance to attempts to open it is the reason for this rating.
Also, the lock includes a printed HomeKit code pairing code. This code is necessary as you will need it to activate the HomeKit feature. Although Level has made efforts to ensure that the lock is secure, there are a number of ways for thieves to break in.
Most consumer-grade locks can be picked easily, so the BHMA AAA rating doesn't necessarily offer the same level security as lockpicking. It can be difficult for some smart locks to be found, such as the Schlage Encode Plus.

How to install a smart security system for your home
The first step is to decide what type of security you want for your home. There are many security options, such as door locks and motion sensors, keypads, cameras or alarm systems. The following are the most common security systems:
-
Door Locks - If you just want to make sure no one enters your house without your permission, then this is probably the best option for you. You have the option of either lever locks or deadbolts, which are much easier to operate than standard deadbolts.
-
Motion Sensors – This is another way to control who enters your home. It works in the same way as a normal light switch. But, if someone comes near it, it turns it on/off. Motion sensors can be equipped with a camera that sends images back from your phone if it senses movement.
-
Keypad – You can also use a keypad to enter codes remotely. A keypad can be used to open your garage if your keys are lost or misplaced.
-
Cameras - Most people think of cameras only as surveillance devices, however there are multiple ways to use them. You could, for example, set up a camera at your front door to view it via your smartphone. Or you could set your camera up to automatically take photos every few seconds and store them on your computer. You can then review the photos later, whenever you wish.
-
Alarm Systems - An alarm is a system that alerts you to an upcoming event. They work by sending a signal through your phone or email. When you receive the notification you can view the recorded footage to see exactly what occurred.
-
Smoke Detectors - Many homes don't have smoke detectors installed, but they should always be included in new construction. These are very affordable and easy to put in.
