There are many ways to protect your home. A homeowner can spend thousands of dollars on a security system with monitoring or a new surveillance camera system. There is a better way.

Some are simply Bluetooth connectivity and some require a hub to connect to your wireless network in your home. There are several advantages to a deadbolt lock over a standard door knob or door handle lock.

A door knob or door handle can provide some security. However, they have their own downfalls. The greatest security breach is the type of latch. Most deadbolt locks engage the lock and they become shim proof and cannot be jimmied open with a screwdriver or a credit card. A properly installed deadbolt lock provides the greatest protection of any residential locking fixture.

Deadbolt locks have become more advanced. Now there are several different types, finishes and ways to open a deadbolt lock.

A keypad deadbolt lock or keyless entry lock can make life more convenient and allow you to provide access and deny access without having to collect a key. Some of the new keyless deadbolt locks allow you to store over 20 separate codes. This allows each person to have a different key or access code to open the lock. And, there's always a way to access the lock if the battery has gone dead, so you don't have to worry about being locked out. Some keyless deadbolt locks have a battery touch on the exterior and some utilize a backup key.

RFID card access is a popular way to access a keyless deadbolt lock. These cards allow access with a physical card. When the cardholder swipes the card near the sensor on the lock, it is recognized and it opens the lock.

Biometric or fingerprint access is another feature you can find in a keyless deadbolt. This works just like the biometric lock on a cell phone. The user saves their fingerprints on the hard-drive and using their fingerprint they can open the lock.
