Why Smart locks? The major reason for such an upraise in the smart lock market is the convenience that it provides. You don’t ever have to worry about managing, misplacing, or losing the keys. The hitch in remembering complex lock combinations is another problem, since, you can’t just write it down somewhere! Smart locks allow you to unlock and gain access with one tap on your phone! Another obvious reason is that you can share, revoke, manage, schedule, and monitor the access and the activities of the lock, remotely, with the help of an application on your smartphone. The difference between a traditional lock and a smart lock? Since we are discussing smart security, let's understand what is the difference between a smart door lock and a traditional lock and which one is better. For starters, smart locks can unlock or lock with a tap on your phone with the help of Bluetooth technology, Wi-Fi, etc. No key or combination is required to unlock them. Traditional locks require a correct physical key to unlock or lock them. No need to worry about losing or misplacing the key or fret about remembering those hard combinations, while using a smart lock. You can easily share access to your lock with a person of your choice, remotely, unlike a traditional lock where you will have to have an extra physical key to be able to share it with a person. You can also schedule your access and set a time while sharing it with a person. This can’t be done in traditional locks! You can program your smart lock to unlock in the mode of your choice e.g. – through Bluetooth, fingerprint scanning, etc. You can also easily manage and monitor the activities of the lock just on your smartphone, for e.g.- who unlocked the lock, when was it unlocked, when was it locked back again, etc. Traditional locks don’t have that. You can check out the records to refer to the history of transactions of the smart lock. This is not possible in traditional locks! These are the obvious advantages of smart locks over the traditional locks that we’ve been using earlier. However, there are a lot of doubts and questions raised about the security of smart locks. It is important to understand that these smart dsoor locks are as strong (or more) as a traditional lock physically and have elements of smart intelligence to ensure higher security. Due to the recent incidents of hacking of smart locks, the manufacturers now are making sure that their smart locks are hack-proof. Smart locks definitely provide more options and features when it comes to security, access, and management! ATSS - Technology Solutions Provider
