DIGITAL LOCKS- FOURWAYS
OVERVIEW
A digital lock is basically any type of electronic lock which doesn't require a key. A good example is a door lock with a simple 4 digit combination as its password. Another example is a lock which relies on fingerprints or other biometric information.
Other variations of digital locks include those which not only feature digital locking mechanisms, but also backup keys, in case the electronic component doesn't work. In any case, all digital locks have the same general features:
• They don't require keys
• They cannot be picked like conventional locks
• They are electronic devices

DIFFERENT TYPES OF DIGITAL LOCKS
There are generally three types of digital locks, and although new varieties are released in the market each year, these three still dominate much of the digital lock market. The three types of digital locks include:
• Push Button Locks - These types locks use password combinations to open the deadlock. These combinations may be reset at any time, so you can change it any time you need to.
• Remote Signal Locks - Remote signal locks were traditionally used on apartments, car and business establishments however, certain brands may also be used on private homes. These locks feature special receivers built into the door, which can only be opened by a specific electronic signal from a compatible remote. Once the signal is transmitted, the deadbolt opens and the door is unlocked.
• Biometric Locks - Have you seen a movie that features locks which can only be opened using fingerprints? These locks are known as biometric fingerprint locks, and like many digital locks, they were traditionally used by offices and business establishments for increased security purposes. Instead of receiving a signal or a password combination, the biometric systems of a biometric lock will only open the deadlocks if a registered fingerprint is placed on the appropriate scanner pad.
WHY USE A DIGITAL LOCK?
Digital locks have several benefits. First of all, they are useful for disabled persons. One good example of this are remote signal locks, since they allow that person to only use a remote control. Secondly, they don't have any keys, which means that the only way you can lock yourself out is if you forget your password or your thumb. Finally, it's worth mentioning that digital locks have more features than convention locks, so you're getting more value for your money.
