Lock types makers name
Makers sell keypad deadbolts, keypad door handles, and keypad door locks. The maker's description says which parts are in the box and what the keypad controls.
When the label is too small
The FCC rule at 47 CFR 15.19 says that when a device is too small to carry its label statement "in a font that is four-point or larger," and has no display for an electronic label, the statement "shall be placed in the user manual and must also either be placed on the device packaging or on a removable label attached to the device."
Exit doors
Rules for locks on exit doors vary. Before you install one, check with your local building or fire official.
Before you buy
Read the maker's manual and return policy. No keypad, lock, or code can guarantee that a door will stay secure or that a break-in will not happen.
