We all live in the era of advanced science and technology, in recent years, with the rise of smart home, many people have begun to install a variety of smart products when decorating, hoping to create a high-end home,
And in so many smart products, fingerprint locks are an indispensable part!
I have to admit that the emergence of fingerprint locks gives people more ways to unlock, such as face recognition, passwords, cards, mobile phone unlocking, and so on. With a fingerprint lock, you don't have to worry about forgetting your key when you go out, which is very convenient.
It's just that what I don't understand is that smart locks were very popular when they first appeared, but now sales are gradually declining, why is this?
In this issue, let's take a look at why the fingerprint lock gradually "fell off the altar"? After reading these 4 shortcomings, it is not surprising!
High cost of use
The price of fingerprint locks is relatively high, and for people with poor economy, there is no need to start this kind of door lock.
Although there are cheap fingerprint locks on the market, its quality is relatively poor, and there will be frequent problems when it is used in the later stage, such as failure to open the door, malfunction, etc.
The choice of brand fingerprint lock may cost thousands of yuan, the price is very expensive, and the price is higher than the price of the entrance door.
Especially for those whose parents intervene in the renovation, they always think that this design is unnecessary, and the overall price will continue to rise due to the cost of future use.
Safety Difference
As one of the biological characteristics, the pattern has stability and immutability, but it has also become a potential safety hazard.
Once the fingerprint information is illegally obtained or copied, criminals can easily crack the fingerprint lock, which poses a serious threat to home security, and the identification technology of the fingerprint lock also has certain limitations.
In extreme environments, such as excessive humidity, low temperature or finger injury, the recognition accuracy of the fingerprint lock will be greatly reduced, and it may even be impossible to recognize, which undoubtedly reduces its security in actual use.
There are many installation restrictions
To install a fingerprint lock, we need to make sure that the security door in our home is of sufficient quality.
This is because, if the material of the door is too light and thin, or if it has already sunk and deformed, then the installation of fingerprint locks will face great difficulties.
This is because fingerprint locks require a solid support point to guarantee their proper functioning, and a weak door body cannot meet this requirement.
In this case, we had to consider replacing the door body, which undoubtedly increased the cost and complexity of the installation.
Low scratch fingerprint recognition rate
Over time, the subtle lines on the fingerprint gradually become blurred, and this change is undoubtedly a huge blow to the fingerprint recognition system that requires a highly accurate match.
The reduction of the fingerprint recognition rate not only affects the user's experience, but also reduces the security of the fingerprint lock to a certain extent.
In addition, in addition to the erosion of time, environmental factors are also one of the important factors that lead to fingerprint wear.
Environmental factors such as moisture, dryness, and oil stains may cause varying degrees of damage to fingerprints, which in turn affects the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.
Is the fingerprint lock worth buying?
Personally, I think that fingerprint locks still have certain advantages in some aspects,
For young people who like a sense of technology or people with poor memory, it is necessary to install a fingerprint lock at home.
And now the fingerprint lock is getting better and better, and the security and functionality have changed significantly.
When buying a fingerprint lock, you should pay attention to the following points:
(1) Select semiconductor fingerprint lock
Compared with the traditional optical fingerprint lock, the semiconductor fingerprint lock has higher recognition accuracy and anti-interference ability.
It can read fingerprint information more accurately, effectively preventing it from being copied or forged, and providing a solid guarantee for your home security.
(2) Choose electromechanical separation
Choosing a fingerprint lock with electromechanical separation can add another layer of protection to your home security.
This type of lock completely separates the electronic part from the mechanical part, and even if the electronic part fails, it can be opened normally by means of a mechanical key. This design not only improves the reliability of the lock, but also allows you to deal with unexpected situations more calmly.
(3) Choose C-level lock cylinder
C-class lock cylinder is an important factor that cannot be ignored when buying fingerprint locks. The C-level lock cylinder has a higher security level and a more complex internal structure, which can effectively prevent technical unlocking and violent unlocking. Choosing a fingerprint lock with a C-level lock cylinder can make your home security better guaranteed.
(4) I choose semi-automatic
This kind of lock needs to manually turn the handle or press the button to unlock after recognizing the fingerprint, compared with the fully automatic lock, the semi-automatic lock has more advantages in terms of security and stability. At the same time, the semi-automatic fingerprint lock is also relatively affordable in price, so that you do not need to bear excessive economic pressure when enjoying the convenience and security brought by high technology.
