Code lock instead of key lock?!
There are multiple security advantages with a code lock compared to key locks. One such advantage is the obvious lack of keys. Since high security keys are often long and bulgy (sometimes with double axes) they are quite uncomfortable to carry around. Therefore many don't want to carry around these keys, especially so if various persons are supposed to have access to the safe. This issue often results in ill-fated attempts at hiding keys somewhere in the vicinity of the cabinet. Since thieves are well aware of this practice, seeing a safe with key lock often results in a quick and careless search for keys (even thought they might not even be there).
The cost of such damage can quickly surpass the additional cost of choosing code lock instead of key lock.
Chances are that the burglar will turn around in the doorway if they see a safe with code lock, while the opposite is likely true if they see one with key lock.
Economical perks of a code lock
Keys for security rated cabinets, e.g. SSF3492 rated models are copy protected, for obvious reasons.
Therefore there is no way to create more keys if needed. Instead the code lock has to be readjusted, or if that isn't possible, completely changed, which of course is more costly.
This is of course also the case should one or both keys go missing.
With a code lock on the other hand you can just tell more people about the code or, if the code might be compromised, change it. Very easy and completely free of cost!
