Key-less electronic locks are growing in popularity with both business owners and homeowners alike because of their remarkable convenience and utility. Below are 5 compelling reasons why you switching to key-less electronic locks makes perfect sense.
Enhanced Security
Keyless electronic locks, particularly mechanical keypad locks, offer a higher level of security as they are designed to be bump-proof and pick-proof. Unlike traditional locks, which can be vulnerable to lock bumping and lock picking, electronic keypad locks provide added protection, making it more challenging for intruders to gain unauthorised access.
Keyless Entry and Exit
Keyless electronic locks provide unparalleled convenience. With a keypad lock, there’s no need to fumble with keys when trying to unlock the door, and you won’t have to worry about being locked out of your house. All you need to do is enter your personal PIN, keyfob or use the app on your phone to gain entry or exit. Additionally, the keypad lock can automatically lock the door upon exiting, ensuring security is maintained.
Time-Determined Schedule for Locking and Unlocking
Keyless electronic locks offer the advantage of time-determined access control. This is particularly useful for businesses, as owners can schedule specific time periods for doors to be locked or unlocked, providing strict control over employee access to different areas of the premises. Homeowners can also benefit from ensuring their doors are automatically locked at specific times, such as during nighttime.
