Hello Lemmy!

I have moved to a walkable area and no longer need to have my car keys on me all the time. My landlord has put in a crappy 4 digit combination style door lock, but said I could change it.

What is the best kind of keyless door lock that I can use instead? Ideally one with decent enough security to be as good or better than a key?

Thanks for your input!

    Take an electrical lock with good mechanical quality. No smartness inside the lock itself, just a + and - wire.

    Then put the “smartness” inside the house, where it cannot be attacked.

    A cheap keypad on the outside, so you can replace it every year without shedding a tear.
