Keypad Deadbolt Can Be Attractive on Any Door

28 December 2008

Going high tech with your locks can be fun and practical (a keypad lock means no more keys you have to tote around), but maybe you’ve shied away from the idea of some funky science fiction looking thing attached to your door (especially if you have a historic home).

But today you can get keypad door locks and deadbolts that won’t look out of place even on an older home. Subtle use of buttons and aged finishes help make these locks look good on houses that my not be ultra modern.

The Schlage Camelot Deadbolt Keypad can be purchased with an aged bronze finish that gives it a rustic feel (other finishes include bright brass and aged nickel).

A keyless deadbolt means there’s no chance of someone having a copy of your key made and getting into your house against your wishes. If you fire the housekeeper or dog walker, just change the combination to ensure only family members and trusted friends can get in unannounced.

As I write this, the Schlage deadbolt is on sale at Amazon, so take a peep if you’re interested:
