These locks use a proximity or magnetic stripe card to unlock the door. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are easy to use and program, and offer a high level of security because they do not require a physical key that can be copied or lost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Fingerprint lock<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<a href=\"https:\/\/rigau.cat\/en\/locksmith-service\/access-controls\/access-control-for-doors-with-fingerprint\/\" rel=\"noopener\"> fingerprint lock <\/a>is one of the most advanced and secure options available in the market.
