In today's security-conscious world, keypad locks have become one of the most popular upgrades for homes and businesses throughout Westchester County. These innovative locks eliminate the need for traditional keys while providing enhanced security features that make your property safer than ever. At Alpha Locks and Safe, we specialize in keypad lock installation, programming, and maintenance for residential and commercial properties.

Why Keypad Locks Are Revolutionizing Home Security

Traditional key-based locks have served us well for centuries, but they come with inherent vulnerabilities. Keys can be lost, stolen, copied, or forgotten. Keypad locks solve these problems while adding powerful new capabilities:

• No keys to lose – Your code is always with you in your memory
• No lockpicking vulnerability – Keypad locks eliminate the traditional keyhole that burglars can pick
• Easy code changes – Change your code instantly if security is compromised
• Multiple user codes – Give unique codes to family members, employees, or service providers
• Temporary access codes – Create codes that expire after one use or a set time period
• Entry logging – Many models track who enters and when

Common Keypad Lock Questions

What happens if the battery dies?

Most keypad locks give low battery warnings weeks in advance. If the battery does die completely, many models have an external battery terminal that lets you power the lock temporarily. Locks with key backup can still be opened with a key.

Can keypad locks be hacked?

Quality keypad locks have security features like scrambled keypads, lockout after failed attempts, and encrypted communication (for smart models). The risk of hacking is extremely low compared to traditional locks that can be picked.

Will a keypad lock work in extreme weather?

Modern keypad locks are designed to operate in temperatures from -35°F to 150°F. They're rated for outdoor use and resist rain, snow, and humidity.

How often should I change my code?

We recommend changing your master code every 6-12 months and immediately after giving temporary access to service providers or if you suspect your code has been compromised.

Keypad Locks for Businesses

Commercial properties have unique security needs that keypad locks address perfectly:

• Employee turnover – Simply delete former employees' codes instead of changing locks
• Access scheduling – Set codes to work only during business hours
• Audit trails – Know exactly who entered and when for security and HR purposes
• Multiple doors – Manage all entry points from a central system
• Master key elimination – No more worrying about master keys being copied
