The New Level Lock+ (Matter) Revolutionizes Home Security

  • by

Building smart devices into your home doesn’t have to mean sacrificing design. Many current and previous generation smart locks are bulky and unattractive, but companies like Level are creating sleek and minimalistic options that blend seamlessly with any home decor. Level has been at the forefront of smart lock design for some time now, and the new Level Lock+ (Matter) continues this trend, offering robust features while maintaining its stylish design.

At first glance, the Level Lock+ (Matter) looks identical to its predecessor, the Level Lock+. That’s a good thing, though. The Level Lock+ is sleek and stylish, and nothing about the exterior of the lock makes it seem as though it’s actually a smart lock. Both the exterior and the interior portions of the lock look like any other standard locking mechanism, albeit a well-designed one at that.

The most notable update in the Level Lock+ (Matter) is its support for Matter, a unified smart home standard developed by industry leaders like Apple, Google, and Amazon. Matter ensures seamless integration with any modern smart home ecosystem, eliminating the need to check for compatibility with specific platforms. Whether you use Apple HomeKit, Google Home, or Alexa, the Level Lock+ (Matter) fits right in.

In addition to Matter support, the lock offers several convenient features. Notably, it works with Apple Home Keys, allowing you to simply tap your iPhone to the lock when you get home to unlock it. It also works with the Level Keypad, which is sold separately but can be installed outside your door so that you can input a code to enter, and more importantly, it allows you to set up guest codes that you can give to someone who might only need to access your home one time, for example. Lastly, you can use it with a key fob.

Smart locks like the Level Lock+ (Matter) offer practical benefits. They let you control your lock from your phone and, when connected to a smart home hub, provide remote access from anywhere with an internet connection. Installation is straightforward, making it accessible even for DIY enthusiasts.

Available in Satin Nickel or Matte Black, the Level Lock+ (Matter) is available for $329 via level.co.
