Gradually, technology is increasingly present in homes in the form of smart devices. And we not only talk about smart speakers, but also security cameras, thermostats and even locks.
Precisely, a member of the OMICRONO team had the opportunity to try the Nuki Smart Lock 2.0, an incredibly comfortable smart lock for offering the opportunity to open the door directly with the mobile.
Despite this, it is true that his appearance is quite striking, which in many cases can be negative in the face of theft. With that in mind, a company has developed what would be the world’s first invisible smart lock.
The “invisible” smart lock
Level Home is the signature behind this curious invention. The “Level Lock” allows users to enjoy all the benefits of an intelligent lock without the rest of the people being able to find out about their appearance.
In other words, it will turn a normal lock into a smart one in just a few minutes, keeping the original bezels and bolts we have. Looking outside it will seem that we have not changed anything, but we will have at our disposal all the features of an intelligent lock.
To achieve this, Level Home has used a CR2 lithium battery that is hidden inside the bolt, so they do not need a space as large as that required to use an AA battery.
The mobile as a key
Users will be able to open and close the door directly from the Level mobile application, in addition to sharing remote access to other people and having a record of home entrances and exits.
In the same way, as the original bezels and bolts are maintained, we can continue to open and close the door with our usual keys. A very attractive possibility that other smart lock manufacturers do not usually offer.
The company says its battery lasts a full year, while the locking mechanism is ready to support approximately one million operations.
Level Lock has a Bluetooth connection, so we can connect it to other smart devices. This is compatible with Siri voice commands and HomeKit, although we still don’t know if one day it will also work with Alexa.
Even safer
There are many people who do not finish trusting smart locks, however, the Level Lock offers a higher level of security than all we had known so far.
First of all, we have to take into account that nobody can know that we have an intelligent lock if we don’t reveal it, which gives it great value since no hacker can identify it with the naked eye.
Likewise, those who are not convinced at all of giving way to an intelligent lock will keep the possibility of opening it with their lifelong keys, something impossible in the rest of the locks of this style. Will this type of locks ever extend? Of course, Level’s looks very good.
