Is there a way to limit a person from entering a specific area,like he needs lvl 20 or a item.?

Yes. For this you'll want to look up the Enter() proc.

area/LVLRestrict
    Enter()
        if(usr.LVL <=20)//checks to see if the mob is below lvl 20
            return //stops the mob if there lvl is below 20


This is probebly your best bet.

It's good that you're trying to help, but that isn't quite what he's looking for. For one, he said "or an item," and for reason two, you don't return the default value, so even if they SHOULD be permitted, they won't. Also, using usr there is inappropriate.
area/LVLorOBJRestrict
    Enter(atom/movable/M)
        if(M.Level<20&&!(locate(/obj/requireditem) in M))
            return 0
        return ..()


If the level variable isn't stored in atom/movable(I guess it's more probable it would belong to the mob class), you could always typecast:
area/LVLorOBJRestrict
    Enter(A)
        if(ismob(A))
            var/mob/M=A
            if(M.Level<20&&!(locate(/obj/requireditem) in M))
                return 0
        return ..()


That's probably a better bet than what you claimed to be the best bet. =P
