Your fingerprints are unique to you and are conveniently available wherever you go. Almost everyone has come home at night and stood in front of the door, sorting through their key ring to find the right key, and then searching for the keyhole in the dark. This activity is only more challenging when you are holding a toddler, a bag of groceries or BOTH! Now imagine, rather than rummaging through your purse or pockets and then looking for the key hole, you simply place your fingerprint on the scanner as you reach the door. In a moment you are inside your home.

Add to this the convenience of never searching for lost keys again, plus the security of knowing you will not be locked out of your house at the mercy of your nearest lock smith, and you can see that the benefits of fingerprint door locks are numerous. Not to mention the savings you may realize by not having to change all the locks on your home when you conclude your keys may be lost for good.

Also, unlike mechanical keys, your fingerprints can not be duplicated Therefore a fingerprint lock offers the peace of mind that there are no misplaced, lost or stolen keys that can be duplicated and that there are no extra keys in the hands of someone you do not know.

For those who are not ready to give up their keys, many fingerprint locks can be ordered with a back up mechanical key override. For others, looking for a “bump” proof lock without a key cylinder, a PIN code or RF card can be used as your fail safe back up.
