Keypad door locks are designed to be opened by entering codes, so they are limited at certain times. For example, when the power goes out, or when you forget your code, you can't successfully enter your password and face being locked out by your own door lock.

Is it possible to open the keypad door lock without entering a code? That's something Signstek can handle. Even if you can't enter a code, Signstek has an alternate keyhole that allows you to unlock.

One more keyhole

Keypad door locks do not usually have a keyhole, which is the biggest difference between them and mechanical door locks.

When you forget the entry code, you can use the spare key to unlock the door. When you forget to take the key, you can enter a code to unlock the keypad door lock. Have two strings to your bow to ensure that you can unlock the lock smoothly whenever you want.

The keypad door locks with spare keyholes in the Signstek online store include the ST-668D electronic touchscreen keypad deadbolt lock, ST-668 Plus touchscreen keypad door handle, PLU331 electronic keypad deadbolt lock, and PT-R0S00 electronic keyless front door lock, all of which have spare keyholes exposed.

The ST-668Plus touchscreen keypad door lock hole is hidden inside the door handle, requiring the door handle to be removed to see, reducing the possibility of the lock being picked, and ensuring your family's security to a greater extent.

Password-free mode

It's not practical for guests to use a key to open the door when they're coming to your house for a party, and the password for the keypad lock may seem redundant. You may read here how to unlock a keypad door lock without the code .
