‘Dial-A-Door' Handle Replaces the Need for Keys

— January 25, 2011 — Art & Design
If you have ever lost or forgotten your keys, then this ‘Dial-a-Door’ by Jess Han is the design for you. This door handle features four spinning dials with which to choose your four number pass code for entry. It's a great alternative to keypad-based entry systems that require power.

The ‘Dial-a-Door’ includes an illuminating backlight for easy use in the dark and will automatically re-spin the dials to hide your entry code.

Implications - Now, if you're like me and you're a habitual key loser, this is the kind of product for you. Your minor moments of carelessness will no longer leave you high and dry, and you won't have to spend so much time sitting in front of your door waiting for someone to come home.

Where can I sign up? Check the 'Dial-A-Door' website to learn more.
