Security perks of choosing a code lock
Since keys to security cabinets are often long and bulky with double axes, they are quite unpractical 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 locks
The keys to the burglary rated cabinet are copy protected.
or if that isn't possible, completely changed, which of course is even more 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 about the code lock!
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.
When it comes to keypad code locks, there is a risk that the keypad buttons gets worn so that some numbers will be unreadable.
Such unequal wear may also make it easy for unauthorised to figure out which numbers are included in the code, unless there is an even wear of the buttons.
Therefore, we recommend that everyone who purchases cabinets with electronic code locks change codes / numbers at least 3-5 times a year.
