Because of a practice that burglars use called "lock bumping," and other measures burglars take to pick locks, keyless entry door locks are becoming increasingly popular in office spaces and in residential buildings. In order to keep burglars from breaking into your home, (especially if you live in an area where there is a higher likelihood of crime) you should consider alternative measures to your ordinary door lock.
You can go keyless with several types of locks that are bump-proof, unpickable and hacksaw-proof. You might even consider mechanical locks, electronic locks or fingerprint locks, all of which are keyless.
Both mechanical and electronic locks utilize some sort of keypad into which you press a secret code that you can customize. Both of these types of keyless entry door locks operate a deadbolt that only releases its latch when you enter the proper code; the mechanical lock opens manually while the electronic lock opens via electric signals.
Fingerprint keyless entry door locks are very convenient but much more expensive than mechanical and electronic locks. With fingerprint locks, the deadbolt will not open unless the proper fingerprint is registered on its scanner.
Whether you choose a mechanical, electronic or fingerprint keyless lock, you can purchase one in just about any style. If you want a look that is all business or if you want a lock that is decorative for your home's ornate front door, you can easily find what you are looking for online. The Internet can provide many affordable resources.
