Cant you just jump the 2 terminals to bypass the lock? with a metal object like a screw driver?

No, the key is required. You COULD push the inside of the switch to turn it on, but it is spring-mounted so as soon as you release, the switch will disconnect. The key has a small plastic tab that locks the switch on. We have done low-profile applications of this switch by cutting the top of the key off and filing a slot into the small key bit, so you can turn it on and off with a flathead screwdriver. You just have to be careful not to lose the tiny key.

This isn't a security device except for the fact that it is hidden. So yes you could do as you say and jump the terminals. I used one on an old truck that had a power drain somewhere to keep the battery from running down.

yes....but depending on the amperage ...it could spike. if its not a smooth transition, it could ruin whatever equipment is attached.

you can if you get to the back terminals but the idea is that it's mounted to a secure surface in which you don't have access to the underside. such as through a fiberglass panel, steel plate, auto grill, etc.

You really cannot reset the combination. If you open it, you may unlock it manually, but that requires an impact screwdriver and a special screwdriver bit. Then you may reset it. Not an easy task, not as secure after you re-assemble it.

Put your code in and retract the door locks by turning the handle clockwise

I have to agree with beholder242. The lock is as robust as it can be considering the application. I don't believe that the average person could defeat it simply by trying to pick it.

No. there is a button that you can hold and open it all the way. or you can push it a little and then the locking pin will fall into the next hole. I like how it's designed, I actually bought a second one from my brother.

If you lock from inside you will unable the sistem to be opened from outside. From inside you don,t need to unlock the sistem to open the door, only move the handle down.

I had to use master locks, small ones with the larger extended metal piece on top. They are still a tight fit. Might be your best bet to go with a cable lock of some kind.

No, the key lock is secondary and NOT a bypass to the electronic lock. See manual.

No. This is a deadbolt. It can only be locked or unlocked by turning the key from either side.

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.

Yes, you are doing it the right way. You don't need the key to lock it. Just click it twice to be safe.

The locking mechanism seems to be all metal based on what I can see. As far as being able to pry it open with a screwdriver, I have no idea. I've never tried to. Seems reasonably solid to me but I'm sure someone could pry it open if they had the mindset and adequate tools.

Just turn the deafbolt in locking position. You can always turn it to lock, but only can unlock it with the selected code you chose.

I don't know how that could happen with the type of locks it has. You may have to put a cable with a lock on it through the bars.

You need the original key to reprogram it. You need a key for the lock before you can change it to another key. Odds of someone having the same "KEY" is highly unlikely.

I do not know. Since I installed my locks to avoid having keys and to me the pass code is more convienent, I never tried disarming it!.

It has two plastic handles that come together and you can put a padlock through the handle holes. Its more of a visual deterent. You could probably slide a large screwdriver behind the handle and bust it off.
