Automatic BioMetric Deadbolt

[TWoods450]

Does anyone know of a latch or deadbolt that opens automatically w/ a swipe of a finger? I'm buying a house, in the master bedroom behind the walk in closet is a smaller room that I'm planning on turning into a gun room(gun safe). I want a lock on the door that when I scan my finger will just pop open. Anyone know of a good lock that can do this>?

Simplex lock

I know you asked about biometrics, but why not a Simplex Door Lock.

No key to lose, super quick to open.

Oops. Double post.

No key to lose, super quick to open.

And no batteries ...

Simplex aren't particularly secure.

1081 combinations on a Simplex is fairly small, true. But at 1 every 2 seconds, that's 36 minutes to try the whole set. On a large population of locks, one would expect that to average out to about half that. A bored child might be a significant risk, more than a burglar.

Some of the other 10 key versions might go up to a million possible (but practical considerations drop that some).

Neither is the door. The lock is perfectly adequate for a common door. Your not building a vault.

Biometrics seem slick, but the more I look at them, the more finicky they seem.

TKM was being a bit reserved with his comment. Google 'simplex lock lawsuit'. Learn something new every day ... I didn't know about that before my first response.
