Castles have not existed for the first millennium. Moreover, they are constantly improving, changing their appearance. This is not surprising, human thought does not stand still. Today there are many types and varieties of locks, their only purpose: to let in the one who has the key.
How simple everything happens when the key is in place. He walked over, unlocked the lock, opened the door. Moreover, it is not even so important how he opened it. He turned the key in the well, inserted a perforated card into the slot, used a magnetic or electronic key, that's not the point, the lock worked - the door opened.
Many different designs of locks and keys have been developed for hotels. Today, not mechanical locks prevail, but magnetic, electronic, chip and so on, which allows, firstly, to significantly raise the level of security, and secondly, to make the loss of the key by the guest not so critical. Some hotels generally began to place various advertising information on plastic keys, thus making them a kind of advertising brochures.
The actions of the hotel management are quite understandable, since according to statistics, every eighth client takes the key with him. That is, having resigned themselves to the continuous loss of keys, the hotel administration considered it a norm to establish continuous key coding as needed. Moreover, modern technology not only provides the highest protection against unauthorized entry into the room, but also allows you to have universal keys for staff.
So what to do if the magnetic key is lost. The smartest advice is to use a spare. Moreover, magnetic keys of almost any type are easily copied. Just like magnetic keys for an intercom, they are encrypted in just a couple of minutes.
The situation becomes much worse if there is no sample key. In this case, you can choose the right combination forever.
That is, the presence of a master key removes the acuteness of the problem to a large extent. But in any case, trying to do something yourself is completely empty. After all, even in order to program a regular key for an intercom, you need special equipment, which you cannot make on your knee.
However, because keys tend to get lost, no one will abolish the existence of magnetic locks and keys, since their reliability and the highest degree of secrecy provide them with the broadest sales market.
The wider implementation of high-tech locking systems is already becoming a reality today. And the consumer really doesn't care which system ensures his safety.
