Security advantages of a code lock
Since keys to security cabinets are often long and bulky with double axes, they are quite unconvenient to carry around.
This issue often results in ill-fated attempts at hiding 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" key.
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 a code lock
Keys to burglary rated cabinet are copy protected.
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.
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!
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 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 Alkaline battery. Our experience tell us to 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.
If the battery do run out your codes will still remain and function when you've changed the batteries.
Improve security even more!
If you choose a cabinet with a code lock, you can increase the security even more by changing code (digits) 3-5 times a year.
This will heavily decrease the risk of an unauthorised getting hold of a functional code.
Secondly this will avoiding unequal wear of keypad buttons on the code lock that could otherwise hint about which digits are used in the code.
Therefore we always recommend to change code a few times each year. By doing so you get the absolute most out of your code lock equipped cabinet or safe.

The code lock can be set with 1 master 0+1 user code, e.g. one for employees and one for a boss.
