Keyless Entry System Benefits
Imagine this scenario if you will. The mall is particularly crowded this shopping day and you have to park far away. But there are some good sales so you do it anyway. As you are inside shopping the weather turns bad and it starts pouring rain. You have to go pick up your kids so you brave the rain anyway and run to your car. As you fumble through your purse looking for your keys while getting soaked you suddenly realize they are missing you are stranded and who knows when you will be on your way so you can pick up your kids. If you had simply had keyless locks installed on your vehicle you would be less wet, less stressed and on your way to getting your kids on time.
In this article we will talk about the main benefits you will get from having keyless entry devices installed at your home, business or on your vehicle:
Convenience
By far the number one reason that people like keyless entry devices is because of how convenient they make things. Most of them can easily be opened using one hand, unlike keyed doors that often require to hands working in coordination to open them. When you have keyless locks, you don’t have to put down your baby to enter your car or put down a bag of groceries when going into your home. Just a swipe of a keycard or pressing a special code will easily gain you entry into your home, business or car. You also don’t have to take the time to fumble through your purse or pockets to find where your keys are.
Helps Avoid Lockout Situations
In the introductory paragraph, we gave you a scenario where having keyless locks would have been very beneficial and saved some stress too. Although you can still have a lockout situation with a keyless entry device, the chances of it happening are greatly reduced. You are much more likely to lose or damage entry keys than you are to suffer from a keyless entry device failure. So, having keyless locks installed will greatly reduce your chances of experiencing a lockout scenario with your home, business or car locks.
Ease of Reprogramming
There are times when someone who has a key to your car, home or business is no longer in your good graces. That means in order to maintain a high-security level you will need to get the locks changed on the doors this person had keys for. That can involve a lot of time and expense for sure. This is not the case with most keyless entry locks because they can simply be reprogrammed in most instances. This is done by simply changing a code or the other parameters that make a keyless entry lock open a door. In many cases it takes little or no effort at all to reprogram any keyless entry device.
Adds Style
Some keyed entry locks, especially the ones that offer a higher level of protection, tend to be big and bulky. This can take away the looks from an entry area to a home or business. On the other hand, keyless entry devices tend to be much more subtle. They are much more streamlined and compact. Many times, they are even designed to nicely blend into their surroundings. Keyless locks can definitely offer a much more aesthetically pleasing way to unlock any door. So, consider getting some keyless locks installed if you take a lot of pride in the exterior looks of your automobile, home or business.
Increases Security
There is one bad thing about keyless locking device. They all have some sort of keyhole which greatly increases the chances of a thief gaining entry through a door. That is certainly not the case with keyless locks because they are totally encased and have no open spaces that will allow them to easily be tampered with. Keyless entry devices are often not located on the entry door itself either. This means that even if a would-be thief smashes a keyless device, they are still not going to have an easy time gaining entry through that door.
No More Finicky or Damaged Keys
For the most part, keys are made of very lightweight metals such as aluminum. This has the potential to lead to some problems with the keys that you use to unlock your doors. For one, the teeth on keys have a tendency to wear down over time. Over time a key’s teeth can get worn down so much that it will eventually not work. If this happens you will be locked out of whatever entry door that key goes too. Keys also can become bent and unusable or even break off in a lock once again resulting in a lockout. When you have keyless locks you never have to worry about damaged, worn or bent keys again.
Who Can Help You with a Lockout or Install New Keyless Entry Devices for You?
When you have a lockout situation or any other problem with a lock, there are a number of people you can call for help. While calling a friend, family member or handymen may get you some assistance, these are not the most reliable means of solving your lock problem. So, the best person to turn to when faced with a lockout situation is a professional locksmith. They can open any type of door an make you a replacement key for it too.
