Review Text: THE BEST WAY TO MAKE YOUR DEADBOLT SMART. Installation and setup was simple and straightforward when following the step-by-step instructions in the Level app. Make sure to check Level's website to ensure that Bolt will work with your existing deadbolt. My deadbolt hardware was from Schlage, and Bolt was compatible and worked great once setup and installation were complete. Since my door and deadbolt were fairly new, everything fit into place without needing to modify any cutouts on my door. The only tool that I needed was a Philips screwdriver. This ended up being a huge time saver, and allowed for a frustration-free installation within 10 minutes. As suggested after the last step, I also calibrated the lock using the app, which took less than a minute. Lock and unlock action are smooth, the deadbolt was able to fully extend and retract without issue, and the response time was better than expected for a Bluetooth based lock. The app was also quick to update status and history within seconds of each event. Through the Level app, I was also able to add the Bolt to Apple HomeKit, which allows me to control and manage the lock remotely from anywhere. This is a great feature to have for any smart home, and supports a multitude of integrations that can be done with other devices through HomeKit and third part apps. The Bolt is also compatible with Ring, as long as you have a Ring Video Doorbell Pro or Pro 2 with Amazon Sidewalk. Overall, the Level Bolt is well designed, hidden from sight, and a pleasure to use. I recommended it to anyone that's in the market to make their deadbolt smart without advertising to anyone that they have a smart lock.
