Alternatives to Storing Away Keys
Welcome to SMA Locksmiths Brisbane Post Page. We hope you enjoy.

Losing keys is a major inconvenience to most of us but, forgetting where you placed your keys is a fact of life for most of us. Fortunately, there are many things you can do without hiding keys  to prevent, or reduce the chance of losing your keys.

As technology improves, we have integrated the use of the internet with smartphones. We are now able to employ a variety of keyless entry systems to make it even more difficult for thieves to gain access into our homes. Quite a few keyless entry systems are being utilised by businesses for a long time and the technology has been developed for home use.

Cell Phone Locks
A cell phone lock is a lock fitted to your door and that can be opened or closed by the use of a smartphone. Some systems only have a lock that you fit to your existing lock and can be removed when you move.  On the other hand, there are systems which are integrated into your home, allowing you not only to lock your doors but control other functions, such as;  your lights, thermostat and other appliances within your home, whether you are home or not.

Keypads
You can install a keypad system attached to your door where you can simply key in a code and your door will open. The flaw with this is that you can forget your access code and lock yourself out of your own home.


The latest in modern technology, blue tooth stickers are small stickers that you can attach to anything, including your keys, so that you can locate them when you can’t find them. With a smartphone App which turns your phone into a radar screen, you can find anything with the sticker attached to it within a range of up to 100 feet. These handy little stickers have many applications, as well as,  not only help you find your lost keys, you can even attach them to your pets or your children when you take them shopping.
