The new D2L integrates the fingerprint sensor directly into the lever handle, allowing users to authenticate naturally as they grip the handle to open the door.Local Privacy: Your Data Stays with YouThe D2 Plus Matter and D2L are designed to give users greater control over their personal data and device connectivity.Sensitive biometric information is encrypted and stored locally on the device, rather than uploaded to the cloud, helping keep fingerprint credentials private.Users can also disable Wi-Fi and continue using the lock locally, providing greater control for those who prefer to minimize cloud connectivity.BHMA-Certified Physical SecuritySmart security starts with strong physical protection.Both the D2 Plus Matter and D2L meet BHMA certification standards, providing tested protection against common physical security threats such as impact, drilling, and forced-entry attempts.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Combined with biometric authentication and local privacy protection, the locks are designed to provide security across both the physical and digital sides of home access.Two Smart Lock Designs for Different DoorsThe TCL D2 Plus Matter Smart Lock features a deadbolt design with a touchscreen keypad and integrated fingerprint recognition.
