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.
