Introduction:

Keypad lock is a regular lock with the option to operate not only with a key but also without. Keypad locks come in different shapes and functions and can be installed and operate as doorknobs or deadbolt.

In addition, keypad locks are also very common for key control purposes, i.e. for people who are interested in limiting the access to a certain room. This function is usually used by business owners who want to give certain access to certain employees for certain areas in their business or realtors who want to give a code instead of a key for people to enter a property.

Finally, keypad locks are also a good option simply to upgrade the security of your home or business, as they can be installed with a high-security lock option.
