Reagle Smart Lock

Although not well-known, the Reagle Smart Lock is a unique and reliable lock.  In fact, I currently have it installed on my front door and we reviewed it nearly a year ago.  Since then, I have really been impressed by the battery life not having changed them since installation.  The Reagle Code feature is also great for generating random access codes for the lock.  The Reagle Smart Lock certainly belongs on a list of the best HomeKit smart locks.

August WiFi Smart Lock

Perhaps the most well-known smart lock, the August WiFi Smart Lock got a big refresh this year.  Not only is it 45% smaller than the previous generation, it also has WiFi on board in addition to Bluetooth.  The August Smart Lock is a popular choice as it retrofits to your existing deadbolt.  Although not exposed to HomeKit, It also includes a unique sensor that lets you know if the door is opened or closed.  If you’re looking for a HomeKit smart lock that also connects over WiFi, the August WiFi Smart Lock is the option for you.

Friday Lock

If minimalism is your bag, you may want to consider the Friday Lock.  One of the smallest smart locks out there, this accessory smartens up your existing deadbolt from the inside leaving the outside unchanged.  Featuring location-based auto-unlock and pressure sensitive and timed auto-lock, this lock is great for those looking to upgrade to a smart lock without compromising the exterior appearance of your door.  The Friday Lock is a cost-effective, minimal, and feature-rich choice for a HomeKit smart lock.

VOCOlinc T-Guard Smart Lock

Another lock that we reviewed last year, VOCOlinc’s T-Guard Smart Lock gives you multiple options for getting access to your home.  You can interact with this lock using its built-in touchscreen keypad, with the included traditional key, or through HomeKit apps, including automations.  You can also assign different key codes letting you know who engaged with the lock and when.  This lock is a breeze to install, quick to respond, has flexible access options, and its the most affordable HomeKit smart lock.  The VOCOlinc T-Guard Smart Lock is a smart buy for any HomeKit aficionado.

Level Lock

Completely changing the idea of what a smart lock is, the Level Lock doesn’t replace the whole deadbolt nor does it retrofit the thumb-turn. It retrofits the cylinder of your existing deadbolt leaving it aesthetically unchanged. This will make a lot of significant others very happy. So if you’re trying to clandestinely build out your smart home, the Level Lock HomeKit smart lock is your best option.
