Electronic Keypads

I recently moved to Fair Lawn and had to go through all of the troubles that come along with moving. One of the first things that I had to do was change the locks on all of the doors. Wondering who may or may not have access to my home is something I find nerve-racking. I can sleep better with the peace of mind knowing that unwanted visitors cannot come in.


I went with an electronic keypad lock for the first time. It’s something that I really enjoy. Not only can i get into my house quicker and more easily, but the electronic locks provide much better security than manual locks. At any time, I can access my account and check to see if anyone has been using my locks and entering my home.


Another advantage to using electronic keypads is that they are more difficult to break into. A manual lock can be dislodged by a good forceful hit. Electronic keypads are much sturdier. An electronic keypad will also shut down if the wrong code is entered five consecutive times. A burglar cannot just guess codes until he is lucky enough to get in.

Although many things about the move were difficult, Accurate Locksmith made this entire process easy for me. Their store is in Ramsey and their staff is very knowledgeable and informative on all things lock related. They guided me through all of the differences between the various types of locks and ultimately helped me decide to go with the electronic keypad.
