Keypad or Standard Lock

Jeff Penovich
Posted

We have units with both a keypad and lock. During the last turnover we thought it would be easier and less risky to only give physical keys since that’s harder to share than the keypad code. The renters would really like to have the keypad code but I’m hesitant to share as that would likely mean needing to share other keypad codes with other units.

The reality is, I’m not entirely opposed to having them have the code, but want to reduce the possibility of a code “in the wild”. However, our tenants currently are good, no issues, and not likely to just share the code Willy nilly.

Wanted to ask here what people think?

PS it is a kwikset keypad so when there is turnover we reset and change the keys
