Good-looking keyless door locks?

Posted by Don Chartier at May 20. 2008

Hi,


I'm looking for a modern, clean-looking keyless door lockset, so that I can let friends and contractors (and contractors who have managed to stay friends...) get access to the house when I'm not there (it's a part-time residence). By "keyless" I mean a numeric keypad for entering in a code to unlock the door. I don't mean a fingerprint scanner or other biometric scheme, since that requires getting the fingerprint, etc. in advance. I just want to tell someone "here's the code."


These things exist, but I haven't found any I particularly like--none of them have been within 10 miles of an industrial designer. They're either old-fashioned or clunky, or both.


Any suggestions? Thanks very much.

Hi Don,


Did you ever find such an item? I am looking for the same thing.


Thanks,
