3 Reasons to Have Auto Security Door Locks

01/10/2017 Back To Blog

Today it is possible to replace all the main locks throughout your home with modern designs that offer remote or automatic activation. These electrical locks are brilliant for safety, practicality and are also incredibly impressive. Here we explain 3 great reasons to install automatic locks. We hope this list provides some food for thought.

1. Automatic Locks Are Very Secure

Old fashioned locks that come with solid metal keys are relatively easy to crack compared to electrical locks. Keys are a physical tool that can be stolen from you, copied and used by anyone to gain entry to your property. Electrical locks act as very high security door locks as they typically require the user to know a certain pattern or code to bypass them. This makes it near impossible for people to break in with simple traditional techniques. 

2. Not Hard To Install 

Many people will think that such devices will be time consuming and disruptive to install. This is no longer the case. Many modern electrical lock designs are made to be relatively simple to install on almost any type of door. A locksmith from a professional locksmith services company will be able to have the locks fitted to your front door and back door within one timely session. It is not a process that needs to take days to complete, and it is likely you won't have to make any serious modifications to your existing doors. In many cases a mobile locksmith will have the commitment needed to carry out an install in the same amount of time it would take to fit a cylinder lock, deadbolt or any other type of lock installation. 

3. Great for Peace of Mind

One of the worst feelings you can have when leaving your home is worrying about security. With an electrical lock, it is typically easy to change the code needed to activate it as often as you like. So you can reprogram the code every day, once a month or every time you go away. This will give you far greater peace of mind that you are leaving your property with an added layer of security. This is also a great advantage if you have moments where you want guests or visitors to have access without needing to provide them a physical key. You can let them know the code for a brief time period, to then change it later to resume a setting that only you know.
