No need for keys. You won’t have to carry around a large set of keys and they will be less likely to be lost or stolen. Also, if you are a landlord, you don’t have to give residents keys or replace them if they lose them.
You have control. In a company building, you can control and restrict who goes into what part of the building. Also, residents and landlords of apartments and flats, can control who can enter their room with one PIN code and it reduces the risk of anything getting stolen. It is incredibly easy to change the PIN code whenever you like. The combination door locks from The Workplace Depot have over 8,000 possible code combinations with a simple code change facility.
