From the invention of the first locks to the present, locks have been improved upon and reinvented. Inventive locksmiths helped develop locks into the access control devices that add assurance and peace-of-mind today. Locks started simply with the wooden pin lock. As locks were improved, mechanisms like the warded lock were invented. Locks like the lever tumbler lock and pin tumbler lock are the basis for locks still in use today. Every other device you use is advanced and innovative–why stick with old fashioned locking systems? When you choose an electronic key lock for your home, you move beyond the standard tumbler locks into the world of high security with keyless locks.
Rather than using tumblers, electronic locks operate use electricity to operate the lock function. Using motors, magnets, or solenoids, electronic locks supply power or remove power from the circuit that actuates the lock itself. You will need to be sure that your electronic lock has power and dead batteries are replaced but it’s a small inconvenience compared to the ease of using an electronic lock rather than fumbling with a key. Choose an electronic lock and you can count on locksmith support from Advance Lock and Security.
There are a few common electronic locks with different authentication methods. Most home electronic locks use numerical keypads.
