As we all know, the smart door lock, which integrates a variety of convenient unlocking methods, also keeps the traditional way to unlock. Since the fingerprint and PIN code are greatly convenient for our daily use, why do we still keep the mechanical key of the smart door lock?<\/p>

In fact, the reason why the\u00a0mechanical key should be retained\u00a0is to play the role of emergency unlocking. For example, when\u00a0the smart door lock appears electronic function malfunction caused by circuit failure or fire burnout, the user can use the mechanical key to unlock the door and protect themselves safety.<\/p>

Users who are using the Philips EasyKey, however, can notice that the keyhole of the mechanical key is hidden at the bottom of the escutcheon. Why?<\/p>

Mechanical keyhole<\/h2>

Hidden under the bottom of the escutcheon<\/strong><\/p>

Why should the mechanical keyhole of a smart\u00a0door\u00a0lock be hidden?\u00a0There are three main reasons.<\/p>

First,\u00a0the\u00a0mechanical key\u00a0plays\u00a0an emergency backup\u00a0role, which is not usually used in our daily unlocking. We prefer unlocking through face recognition, fingerprint, PIN code and key tag.<\/p>

Secondly,\u00a0a hidden mechanical keyhole\u00a0is\u00a0not easy to\u00a0notice, which can greatly strengthen the safety level of the smart door lock. Besides, it also effectively prevents the naughty kid or improper unlocking behavior from destroying the keyhole, and makes the technical unlocking more challenging.<\/p>

Thirdly, because this unlocking method is not commonly used, this design can better keep the appearance integrity of the smart door lock for the sake of beauty.<\/p>

Upgrade the security performance<\/strong><\/p>

Assorted Philips EasyKey not only hides the mechanical keyhole under the bottom of the\u00a0escutcheon,\u00a0but also is equipped with a C-grade lock cylinder with a higher anti-theft level. It greatly increases the difficulty of abnormal unlocking and effectively reduces the hidden\u00a0security\u00a0risk of\u00a0the\u00a0door lock.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

C-grade lock cylinder, which is combined with multiple anti-theft technologies with a special marble and blade structure. Once someone violently unlocks the door with a special tool, the door will unable to unlock due to the damage of the cylinder.<\/p>

In addition, it is difficult to judge the inner tooth shape of the lock cylinder even with a tool. This design can handle situations when someone with ulterior motives uses silver paper to unlock the door. A lock cylinder inspection report shows that this kind of lock cylinder can effectively prevent technical unlocking for more than 270 minutes, far exceeding the expectation of those who\u00a0would like to use technical unlocking.<\/p>

To sum up, the smart door lock that retains the mechanical key is not exactly the same as the traditional mechanical door lock. On the contrary, it adopts a higher level of lock cylinder and technology than ordinary door locks to improve safety.<\/p>

Philips\u00a0EasyKey, combined with\u00a0a\u00a0hidden keyhole and C-grade\u00a0lock cylinder, ensures\u00a0our entry and exit safety in\u00a0emergency\u00a0situations.\u00a0It\u00a0also greatly\u00a0enhances the security level of the door\u00a0lock and makes the users enjoy more convenience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
