Man, no more having to drag keys around especially for my mother when she goes for her daily walks. I am so impressed with them, I bought three more for my own house.

Our kids had electronic locks on their last house, and then put some on their current house. (no biometrics, just the keypad) and they are super convenient.

The only problem is if the battery dies. I think folks have ended up locked out of the house once or twice because they weren't carrying keys and the batteries in the lock got low. I don't remember hearing about them having that problem in their first house, but it's happened in this one once or twice.
