Welcome home
Make arriving and leaving home easier with automations that respond to your routine - not just your location.
Every day routines, made smarter
Easy Arrivals for Everyone: When anyone in the household gets home, the door unlocks automatically—no digging for keys, no tapping apps.
Timed to Your Routine: Prefer predictability? Set your door to unlock at the same time each day or only when the garage opens during certain hours.
Touch-to-Enter Simplicity: Recognized by your fingerprint doorbell? Your door unlocks with just a tap—perfect for kids, grandparents, or trusted friends.
After-Dark Light Control: When doors are locked after sunset or late at night, your porch, flood, or outdoor lights automatically turn off.
Trusted Visitor Access: Have someone coming regularly, like a gardener or cleaner? Schedule auto-unlock for them—set it once, forget it forever.
Wake-Up With Ease: Your smart lock senses early risers and helps them start their day—gently unlocking the door and turning on soft lights.
Leaving? Let Your Home Handle It: Lock the door and your home responds: lights off, thermostat adjusted, alarm and cameras on. One action, total readiness.
All day security
Your lock isn’t just for coming and going—it’s the brain of your smart home security system.
All-day security, effortlessly
One-Tap to Lock: Use the Level keypad like a garage clicker—just one tap and you're locked up, no phone needed.
Auto-Lock When Life Moves: Whether you're leaving home or the door’s been left idle too long, your lock has your back—set it to automatically secure itself.
Geo-Fenced Peace of Mind: All household members out? Your locks know and respond—automatically securing your home when the last phone leaves the area.
Rush-Hour Lock Check: Out the back door on your way to work? When it locks between 7–9am, the rest of your doors follow suit—so you never forget.
Smart Sensor Sync: When third-party door sensors confirm everything is shut, your locks automatically engage. No guessing, no app-opening.
Get Notified: If a door is left unlocked too long or accessed when no adults are home, you’ll know instantly.
Sleep soundly
Make locking up one less thing to think about at night.
Sleep soundly, every night
Say “Good Night” to Your Home: With a simple voice command, all your doors lock and your home settles in for the night.
Set It and Forget It: Automate evening lockups at your preferred time—no more second-guessing from bed.
Integrated with Alarm Systems: If your security alarm goes off or gets armed, your doors instantly lock to reinforce your home’s safety.
Evening Lock Reminder: Each night at 9PM, if a door’s still unlocked, a red light in the living room alerts you to take action.
More than just security
Make caregiving simpler with smart alerts and emergency unlocks that help you look out for others—even when you’re not nearby.
Care that goes beyond security
Dementia Care Door Alert: When a specific door (like a guest house or ADU) opens, colored lights inside your home signal it’s time to check in. Smart, subtle caregiving.
Emergency Unlock for First Responders: If CO2 or smoke is detected, all locks auto-unlock—helping rescue crews get in fast, even if you’re not there.
