Security improvement!
There are multiple security advantages with a code lock compared to keys. Firstly, since high security keys are often long and bulgy (sometimes with double axes) they are quite uncomfortable to carry around.
This issue often results in ill-fated hiding of keys somewhere in the vicinity of the cabinet.
Many burglars are unfortunately well aware of this practice, which of course means that there is a very high risk they will find your "hidden" keys.
Lastly, if you lose a key, there is always a risk of it ending up in the wrong hands, which subsequently of course allow for silent and easy access to the content until it is noted that the key is missing.
Economical perks of choosing a code lock
Security keys are copy protected for obvious reasons.
Therefore if you, for some reason, need more keys (e.g. if you want to grant more people access to the safe, or a key gets lost), you will have to both either change the entire key lock, or readjust it with help of a readjustment kit, plus buy a whole set of new keys. This can be quite costly!
With a code lock on the other hand you can just tell more people about the code or change the code/codes if a code ends up with the wrong people. Very easy and completely free of cost!
Avoid economical damage due to searches for "hidden" keys!
If a thief sees a safe with key lock, there is a great risk that they will suspect that the keys are hidden somewhere in the vicinity of the safe.
This will, in light of their scarce time, likely often result in an aggressive and careless search for the keys, which subsequently will result in chaos and damage to your property (even if there are no hidden keys to be found).
The cost of such damage can quickly surpass the additional cost of choosing code lock instead of key lock.
Battery powered
This code lock is powered by a normal 9V battery. We recommend you to use Duracell Ultra power batteries for best possible lifetime and performance.
The approximate operating time for a battery in this type of code lock is 1-2 years for average use.
If the battery runs out it is easily replaced from the outside of the cabinet.
Even if the your code lock batteries totally run out, the chosen codes will remain the same for as long as needed as they are stored in the code lock until you change them.
Important note for increased security!
By changing code and digits occasionally (e.g. 3-5 times a year) you will increase the level of security immensely. On the one hand by decreasing the risk of unauthorised getting hold of the right code, and on the other hand by avoiding potential unequal wear of the keypad buttons.
On the one hand by decreasing the risk of unauthorised getting hold of a functional code, and on the other hand by avoiding potential unequal wear of the keypad buttons.
Buy the code lock with your cabinet!
When purchasing a code lock it is important that you do so when you purchase the cabinet. Then it is professionally installed from start in a correct way.
