The key has been a useful invention for over 4000 years. It’s brilliant when you put it in the lock and turn, but it also has its clear disadvantages. Smart, electronic code locks offer simple everyday magic, and can be a nice entry for you who want to make your home smarter.
Admittedly, an electronic code lock costs a little more than a regular lock. But with the freedom and comfort it provides, most people think it’s well worth the difference.
Goodbye, lost house key! Hello, smart electronic door lock!
The code locks come in several variants. With Heimgard’s top model, you can lock and unlock the door with a code, RFID chip, fingerprint, Heimgard app, or with a key. It’s simple and comfortable. Safe and flexible.
Open Sesame…
A smart electronic door lock is actually a little piece of everyday magic. You no longer need to put the key in the “safe place”, under the flower pot next to the front door. You don’t have to jog with a bunch of keys that gnaw on your thigh, or bump and hit like crazy in your pocket. And you no longer need to be afraid that the kids will lose the key. They open the front door when they come home from school with fingerprints, chips, or with a code. If someone in the family gets a blackout and forgets the code, you just open the door from your mobile. The code can also be easily changed, if necessary. And if you’re under the duvet wondering if you remembered to lock the front door, you know there’s nothing to wonder about anymore, because you’ve activated automatic locking when the door closes so you know the door is always locked. Comfortable, isn’t it?
User codes and one-time codes
From the app, you can create and deactivate codes as it suits you and your family. You can also create one-time codes for use by the plumber, home delivery of goods inside the door, or the neighbor who is going to feed the cat. You choose yourself how many times the one-time code should be able to work before it is automatically deactivated. And in addition, you can specify duration per time. Maybe you want to set the one-time code to work for 5 minutes at a time so that the plumber has time to go several trips to get equipment from the car, or that the cat sitter actually gets in even if the wind blew the door closed on the first attempt.
