Prior to installing your locks, you’ll undoubtedly do some research before having them installed. The market is constantly changing. There are some highly technical locks on the market today. They offer users more convenience and come in various prices. If you are constantly losing or misplacing your keys, having the keyless lock installed is the best option for you. This is also a good option when there is more than one in a home. At Centennial Locksmith Company in Centennial, CO, we have been able to install a variety of keyless entry locks.

The idea of never having to use a key to enter and exit your home again is ideal for those who are prone to losing their keys. One the keypad is installed, you will then be prompted to program a number or specific code to create a password that you will use to gain access. This means you don’t have the pressure of keeping up with keys. You can use that energy for something else. If you have a family and everyone has a key, you avoid the possibility of anyone losing a key. This works all the way around for everyone in the home. Loss keys can create panic in all of those in the household who may fear that someone can come in when they are not expecting it. You reduce the risk of having someone breaking into your home because they have your keys. They may have your keys but they can’t get your code unless you give it to them. With a keyless lock you never have to worry about losing your key again. This decreases the possibility of your home getting broken into. If these are not good enough reasons, perhaps the following will be more convincing.

Better Security – One of the advantages of a keyless lock is the maximum security it offers. You no longer have the concern about losing or misplacing nay keys because you don’t have them to lose. All you ever have to do is change the code when you see fit or after you have had to give it to someone to gain access who you no longer want to have access. Instead of handing over keys that they can duplicate, you simply give anyone whom you choose, the code to gain access. You don’t have to worry about someone messing around with your keyhole either since none exists. When a burglar sees a keyless entry, they will usually just skip it rather than try to break in. A burglar is only looking for the easiest way to get inside your home, not the hardest.

Temporary Access – When there are service workers and contractors coming in and out of your home, it might be necessary for you to give them the code. You can create a completely separate code for them to use to gain access. Once they have finished the job they have been hired to perform, the code that you have set up for their use can be quickly changed again. Changing the code will disarm the lock. We usually tell our customers that this should be avoided when possible. It is best to make sure someone is always home but if you simply cannot, providing them with a code to get inside is the next best option. A keyless lock offers you a great deal of flexibility.

Easy installation – Having a keyless lock installed doesn’t require any drilling into your wall. The keypad can be fitted with a standard doorknob.  No modifications are required. Even though you might be used to using a typical door lock, it doesn’t hurt to see how a keyless entry might appeal to you. You may find out that you like it far more than you do a standard lock. You may be convinced once you see how easy they are to use and to install.
