Wyze, a company dedicated to making smart home technology accessible to everyone, today announced the launch of the Lever Lock. Built specifically for single-bore doors that lack traditional deadbolts, the new smart lever offers an accessible, drill-free upgrade for garage entries, offices, side doors, and guest rooms.

While standard smart locks focus almost exclusively on front-door deadbolts, an estimated 55% of homeowners primarily enter their homes through a garage or side entrance. Upgrading these secondary doors has traditionally required hiring a professional to drill new cutouts or installing costly multi-piece hardware. The Wyze Lever Lock eliminates those hurdles, installing in minutes using only a standard screwdriver while fitting existing single-bore doors.

“Most smart lock innovation has centered strictly on the front door, leaving the high-traffic entry points families use every day overlooked,” said Yun Zhang, CEO at Wyze. “We designed the Wyze Lever Lock to solve that secondary door problem. By putting the fingerprint scanner right on the lever and building Wi-Fi directly into the hardware, you can walk inside with one motion, with no hub and no extra monthly costs.”

The Wyze Lever Lock features a full matte black metal body from exterior to interior, an ergonomic handle, and a touch-activated keypad that stays dark until pressed. Key product features include:

  • Grip-to-Unlock Handle: An integrated fingerprint scanner is positioned directly on the lever handle, scanning and unlatching in under 0.5 seconds in a single, fluid motion. The adaptive biometric sensor stores up to 50 fingerprints (up to 5 per person) and improves recognition accuracy with each use.

  • Built-in Wi-Fi with Zero Hubs or Fees: Built-in 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi enables remote access, real-time activity tracking, and instant alerts directly within the Wyze app – no separate bridge, hub, or subscription plan required.

  • Streamlined Design: A sleek, matte black aesthetic features an intuitive touch-activated keypad that illuminates only on contact, maintaining a clean profile when not in use.

  • Flexible Access Management: Manage up to 50 customizable 4-to-8-digit PINs for family and guests, including permanent codes, scheduled access windows for service providers, and temporary 7-day one-time codes. Features anti-peep passcode protection so onlookers cannot copy your PIN.

  • Effortless DIY Installation: Designed to fit standard North American doors (1-3/8″ to 2-3/16″ thick) with a reversible handle mechanism that adapts to left- or right-hand door swings within seconds.

  • Extended Battery Life: Powered by eight included AA batteries, delivering up to 12 months of reliable operation under typical daily household use. Settings, codes, and fingerprints are retained through battery swaps.

  • Smart Home Integration: Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Home for hands-free voice controls (unlocking via spoken PIN) and status checks, alongside custom cross-device automations powered by Wyze Rules, plus auto-lock to secure the door behind you, two physical backup keys, and an exterior USB-C jump-start port if batteries ever run out.

  • Wyze Doorbell Integration: Lock and unlock directly from the livestream of your Wyze video doorbell without switching between devices.
