Level, known for its discreet smart locks, has partnered with SmartThings to bring more ease and security to homeowners. The main focus of this collaboration is to allow smart home devices to work together with less hassle. Homeowners often want technology that is simple to use and does not stand out too much. Level’s smart locks, which include the updated Level Lock, Level Bolt, and the new Level Lock Pro, are designed to look like regular door locks. The technology is hidden from view, so the appearance of the door is not affected. Even with this simple design, the locks offer features like door status detection, Matter support, quick response times, and longer battery life.
The Level Lock Pro stands out with new options that make it easier to know if your door is open or closed. Matter support means it works with other smart home products that use this new standard. Homeowners can unlock their doors in multiple ways, such as with a fob, through an app, or with a traditional key. This gives flexibility without giving up security or style. The locks aim to be both useful and easy on the eyes, so people do not have to compromise one for the other.
A big part of this partnership is how Level locks work with Matter-over-Thread. Matter is a standard that lets different smart home devices talk to each other more easily. Thread is a type of network that uses less power. When Level locks use Matter-over-Thread, it means they can connect to SmartThings without a complicated setup process. Homeowners can check if their doors are locked, set up routines, and control other devices in their home from one place. For example, the lock can trigger the lights to turn on, the thermostat to adjust, or music to play as soon as someone walks in. All of this can be managed through the SmartThings app.
Another point of focus is energy use. Level locks run on a single CR2 battery, which uses less energy than the AA batteries found in many other locks. Combined with the Thread network, this setup helps the battery last longer and reduces how much energy the smart lock uses overall. For homeowners thinking about energy savings and sustainability, this is a practical benefit. The locks are designed not just for ease of use and security, but also to use resources more wisely.
The partnership between Level and SmartThings is about making home technology simpler and more connected. By working together, they offer a system that feels less like a bunch of separate gadgets and more like one smooth experience. People can get the security they want while managing their home from a single app. The design of the Level locks means the technology does not draw attention, but it is there when it is needed.
