Secure locks are no longer the traditional dial combination locks or padlocks. Instead, current technology allows much safer locks in the form of digital locks, Bluetooth locks, mechanical locks, and smart locks. Low-Energy Bluetooth (BLE) locks can create added security.
When you leave valuable items in a locker, whether at a gym, a workplace, a residential building, or a business, you want to be confident that they are secure. As a manager of a facility or building like this, you can make customers, employees, and visitors feel more comfortable by improving security. Installing Bluetooth locker locks uses the newest locking technology for strong protection.
Locker rooms, whether in health clubs, gyms, or other fitness centers, are common targets for theft. In some cases, this is because items are entirely unsecured. Other times, customers wrongly believe that a standard lock is sufficient against theft. Because of privacy, gyms rarely have security cameras in locker rooms, making it much easier for someone to steal valuables.
When there is less traffic in the locker room, a person may be able to pick a lock or even use bolt cutters on the lock shackle. They may end up raising very little suspicion from the rest of the fitness center.
Your customers will be pleased with the greater security provided by installing Bluetooth smart locks on lockers. This will make theft much more difficult and provide more effective security.
Bluetooth smartlocks have many security benefits when compared to standard padlocks.
Bluetooth Low Energy offers similar wireless features as Bluetooth but operates on lower power. BLE devices consume lower power by being in standby mode or sleep mode until they receive a signal. When they create a connection, it’s only for a few seconds of communication. Bluetooth is made to constantly communicate large amounts of data. This enables these BLE devices to last longer, and they can last for five or more years on a coin cell battery.
BLE works on the same 2.4 GHz ISM band as Bluetooth but uses different channels and a frequency shift modulation to create less interference. Its low power means it works more slowly and can’t transfer as much, but this makes it perfect for smart devices, localized marketing, indoor and small-range tracking, and item tags. BLE connections are end-to-end encrypted, have a limited window, and a limited range, making them very secure.
Bluetooth RFID locks are much safer and more secure than many other standard padlock types. Padlocks, traditional dial combination locks, and TSA-approved locks each have lock shackles. This makes it simple to use bolt cutters to remove them during low-traffic locker room hours. Disc padlocks are made to be harder to cut but can still be removed with bolt cutters with enough care.
Each of these locks can be picked or opened with a copy or master key. Standard padlocks are one of the easiest locks to pick, and dial combination locks have override locks on them. If a thief has the skill and time, they can even scroll through a combination lock, listening for the clicking of the locking mechanism, and guess the combination.
TSA-approved locks are some of the least secure. The reason they are approved is that TSA staff carry with them master locks to be able to easily open these locks to inspect luggage. These master keys are commercially available.
A Bluetooth smartlock is keyless and, therefore, can’t be picked. You have access remotely and through a keypad override. These locks provide security for your valuables while being easy for you to access.
