Keeping our homes safe is one of our most important responsibilities and in this day and age where people can no longer leave their doors unlocked it can even be problematic. Not long ago I met a family that had to change their door lock because one of their teenagers had lost his keys. They didn’t know where the key was and who might have found it and didn’t want to take a risk of someone using it to get into the house. Of course a week later he found his key. The cost of the lock replacement could have been saved if they had a smart keyless door lock and could just change the code. Not too long ago this might have been thought of as science fiction but today there are a variety of different types of keyless door locks on the market.
Bio-metric locks
These locks aren’t just in the movies anymore. A biometric lock uses an optical or thermal scanner to read and memorize fingerprints of all family members and anyone else that you authorize to enter the house. First, you scan your fingertip and then press in a code to open the door.
Surveillance Lock
This really new type of lock is still in its first phase. These locks are state-of-the-art in technology and design. They not only welcome you with a led screen greeting but also have a built-in camera that takes a picture of every person that opens the door. There is no better way to know exactly who has entered your home.
Bluetooth Lock
Everything else in our lives today is wireless, so why not go wireless with our door locks too? One of the best ways to ensure that you know exactly who is entering your home is to be able to remotely manage the door lock. These are simple and secure locks that don’t need keys or codes and can be managed directly from your smartphone or computer. No matter where you are you will always have control over your door lock. You can let the kids or the cleaning lady in virtually without having to be there.
The future is here! Your pockets will feel so much lighter without the responsibility of having your keys in them all the time. And getting into your home will be smooth and quick, no more digging for keys.
