Digital Lock Installation

Smarter, Easier Access for

Homes and Businesses

Digital locks are a practical way to improve security while making everyday access simpler. Instead of relying only on traditional keys, digital locks can allow entry through options such as PIN codes, access cards, tags, fingerprint access, Bluetooth eKeys, app-based control and mechanical key override, depending on the lock model selected. 

Shain’s Local Locksmith proudly supplies and installs McGrath Smart Locks, a trusted Australian brand known for its quality, reliability, and innovative smart lock technology. With options including PIN codes, fingerprint access, key cards, smartphone control, and traditional key backup, McGrath Smart Locks provide a secure and convenient solution for homes, offices, and commercial properties.

At Shain’s Local Locksmith, we can help you choose and install the right digital lock for your door, property type and security needs. Whether you are upgrading your home, office, rental property or commercial premises, we can recommend a suitable solution and install it correctly.

Digital Locks

A digital lock is an electronic lock that allows you to unlock a door without needing a standard key every time. Depending on the model, access may be managed through a keypad, smart phone app, access card, tag, fingerprint reader or backup key. Some smart locks can also support remote access when paired with Wi-Fi or a compatible gateway. 
 
This makes digital locks a great option for people who want better control over who can enter their property. Instead of cutting extra keys, you may be able to create access codes, issue tags or manage users through an app, depending on the lock system.

Digital locks are a good option for homeowners who want the convenience of keyless entry, especially for families, children, cleaners, carers or regular visitors. They can also be useful for people who often misplace keys or want an easier way to manage access without needing multiple spare keys.
 
For businesses, digital locks can help manage staff access, restrict certain areas and make entry easier for authorised people. They are also useful for offices, shops, medical rooms, shared workspaces and other commercial properties where multiple people may need access at different times.
 
Digital locks can also suit rental properties and short-stay accommodation, where access may need to be changed between occupants or guests. Instead of physically changing keys each time, some systems allow access to be updated more easily, depending on the product selected.

Digital Locks for

Different Door Types

Not every digital lock suits every door, so it is important to choose the right product for the job. Different doors may require different lock types, including tubular latches, mortice locks, deadbolts or hook bolts for sliding doors. 
 
Shain’s Local Locksmith can inspect your existing door and lock setup, then advise which digital lock options are suitable. This is especially useful if you are replacing an older lock, covering previous holes, upgrading a commercial door or installing a lock on a gate, screen door or sliding door.

Can Digital Locks

Still Use a Key?

Yes, many digital locks include a mechanical key override as a backup entry option. This means you can still access the property with a physical key if needed, depending on the model installed. 
 
This is an important feature for many customers because it gives the convenience of keyless entry while still keeping a traditional backup option available.
