Can the key lock be opened by bumping?

I believe this person is refering to a bump key. In which a person makes a bump key which can open any deadbolt. I would think not because whoever makes a bump key needs to bump it with an hammer which will probably set off an alarm. Anyone else has an idea?

I think any lock can be opened By someone who knows what their doing. I Would not get a lock with out a key because the electronics may fail; or run out of power leaving you locked out. If your concerned about bumping; you could always disable the key slot with superglue or something

I'm not sure what you mean by bumping. But it appears to be very secure and includes various alarm modes such as a forced entry alarm. It is a dead bolt so it will not open without the key or combination.

Its not locked. The keys are inside. All you must do is push the locks, one to the right, the other to the left. Try that.

You have to use the key to lock or unlock it. No way to accidently close it or lock it without a key.

This is the same lock mechanism that Kensington has used for years. It would take a really hard jerk to get it by just a quick pull. The weakest link is probably the strength of computer opening itself that probably varies from computer to computer. You might get jerked over however. I'd worry about something else.

Yes, but there's a learning curve to it as you have to line the tumbler up, turn the key, push the key in, and then you can open or close the deadbolt. Not as complicated as it sounds, but definitely different from a standard lock.

Nope. Key is locked in place when in ON position. Even tried pulling it out & it stays in-place.

Yes Carlos you can. So if you open your key as it opens halfway up you'll see a little push pin that you can push out and take the key off and replace it with the key that you arty have. Then on the bottom separate the two pieces and you can put the guts that little computer chip in and replace that so it can work if you have anymore questions contact me

That would be a question best directed to the manufacturer. It seems to be a simple lock that would be easily replaced or re-keyed, but I've never tried it, so cannot say for sure.

Unfortionately no. The key is attatched to one side of the casing. I bought 2 and just had them cut. Locksmiths do it and its inexpensive. Hope this helps

Yes you can. It has a hole in the latching mechanism that will allow a small lock.

There is no key. But if someone unlocks your door. And u have an addalock in place, they can't get in without kicking down the door. Also, this can't be used if your not home as it is put in place from the inside.

The lock can but not the key. You will have to place the key in the same place where other magnetic items go to pass through the system.

If it were, that advantage would doubtless be mentiod in advertising, but it evidently is not. For those who don't yet know about this particular weakness, read up on how "bumping" can open a vulnerable lock in seconds with little noise and no evidence of the entry.

Watch the video. Apparently one of version of this -- 10mm? -- is available so it can be rekeyed so that 1 key opens multiple locks.

You should be able to if it's just a simple key without too many embellishments. The item itself it kinda stiff so it would make it a little less malleable.Good luck

Unfortunately the model that I bought locks and I need to leave the key in so it can be opened without punching in the code. I believe that there is another model which doesn't lock automatically that I wish that I've bought.
