An electronic sensor and key operated lock is disclosed which provides users with the option to use at least one of a manually operated mechanism or for example a biometric sensor to unlock the lock. The lock integrates both the manually operated mechanism and a biometric sensor into one device. The manually operated mechanism and a biometric sensor are coupled to a common toggle switch so that operation of at least one of the manually operated mechanism and the biometric sensor moves the toggle switch and a shackle from locked and unlocked positions.

An identity-locked personal item is provided with a lock body configured to receive and release an engagement member upon receiving a matched biometric imprint from an authorized user. An actuator mechanism is connected to at least one capacitive surface and a controller with an integrated power supply inside the lock body, the lock body being further integrated into a secured container. The controller is configured to receive a contact datum from the capacitive surface, the actuator mechanism being operated upon recognition of a known datum or biometric signature.

A smart door opening system includes a latch opening mechanism configured to be received in a latch hole of a door frame and configured to push a latch of a door out of the latch hole and a hinge opening mechanism configured to move the door from a closed position to an open position. A controller is operably coupled to the latch opening mechanism and the hinge actuator. The controller is configured to cause the latch opening mechanism to push the latch out of the latch hole and the hinge opening mechanism to move the door from the closed position to the open position in response to receiving a door open signal. The system includes a network interface configured to receive the door open signal via a network, and to communicate the door open signal to the controller.

A frame door locking assembly suited for reinforcing doors with additional security measures is presented. The frame door locking assembly comprises a mounting frame, at least one track assembly, at least one latch assembly, at least one actuator, and a processing unit. The at least one track assembly traverses along the mounting frame. The at least one latch assembly is distributed about the mounting frame. The at least one latch assembly is hingedly connected to the at least one track assembly. The at least one actuator is connected adjacent to the mounting frame. The at least one actuator is operatively engaged to the at least one track assembly, where the at least one actuator is configured to move the at least one track assembly in a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration. The processing unit is electronically connected to the at least one actuator.

An electronic lock includes a housing, and a locking system within the housing. The locking system includes electronics and a lock. More particularly, the housing contains therein, a controller and at least one electronic input device electrically coupled to the controller, where the controller causes the lock to transition between a locked position to an unlocked position responsive to input from the electronic input device.

An exemplary credential input device includes a mounting plate, a pivot pad, a sensor, an input device, and a controller. The pivot pad is pivotably mounted to the mounting plate, is biased to a home position, and is operable to pivot to each of a plurality of pivoted positions. The sensor is mounted to the pivot pad such that the sensor moves with the pivot pad, and is configured to generate information relating to an orientation of the sensor. The input device operable to move the pivot pad from the home position to each of the plurality of pivoted positions, thereby altering the orientation of the sensor. The controller is in communication with the sensor, and is configured to determine an inputted code based upon information received from the sensor, to compare the inputted code to an authorized code, and to issue a command in response to the comparing.

A door lock system includes a controller including a processor and a memory. the controller is configured to interface with a smart lock. The door lock system also includes an exterior face plate on a first side of a door and an interior face plate on a second side of the door. The second side of the door faces an interior of a room while the door is in a closed position. The door lock system also includes a display screen disposed in the interior face plate. The display screen is connected to the controller and is an input device and an output device.
