The Level Lock Pro stands out in the smart lock market with its discreet design and compatibility with Apple Home. Unlike many bulky smart locks, it resembles a traditional deadbolt, which makes it a favorite for those prioritizing aesthetics. Available in satin nickel and matte black, it complements standard doorknobs and is designed to withstand the elements with its IP54 rating.
Priced at $349, the Level Lock Pro is more expensive than some alternatives, but it offers a sleek design and a range of features. Installation involves replacing the existing deadbolt, which can be tricky due to its unique shape. Despite installation challenges, its simplicity in use is appealing, offering multiple unlocking methods such as key, NFC key fobs, and smartphone integration.
Integration with HomeKit is seamless, utilizing Matter for connectivity and allowing for easy unlocking through Siri or the Home app. The lock also supports automations, notifications, and remote access when paired with a HomePod or Apple TV. The Level Lock Pro’s battery is housed in the deadbolt, providing about a year of use per CR2 Lithium battery, with status updates available through the Level app.
Security is robust, with an ANSI Grade 1 bump- and pick-resistant cylinder, offering peace of mind. The Level Lock Pro can be purchased directly from Level’s website or Amazon.
