Overview

• The redesigned smart deadbolt adds a dual‑core Bluetooth/Thread chip, a hidden door sensor, and a passive infrared presence sensor inside the lock body.
• Matter support expands out‑of‑the‑box control to Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings, with early testing showing faster responses and reliable operation.
• Access options include a physical key, Apple Home Key, app control with auto‑ or touch‑to‑unlock, and an optional $80 keypad.
• Feature availability differs across Matter platforms, so Level’s $79 Connect Wi‑Fi bridge enables door‑open/close alerts, activity and battery notifications, and added cloud integrations.
• Level claims up to one year of life from a single CR2 battery, it is working on UWB hands‑free unlocking and Aliro support with no timeline, and installation works best on factory‑cut doors from the last decade.
