This research deals with the development and
implementation of a door locking system using
Arduino with a keypad interface. The main goal of
this research is to create a robust and adaptable
security mechanism. The system's features include This project's core concept involves using a

III. Introduction
Security, crucial for safeguarding individuals and
assets, has long been a top priority in various
domains like homes, businesses, institutions, and
laboratories. Initially, security measures were less
robust, leaving vulnerabilities to unwanted intrusions.
Recently, diverse innovations such as password-
protected systems, RFID cards, biometrics, OTP,
cryptography, and others have emerged to address the
growing threat of theft.

In response to escalating risks, digital code locks,

powered by technologies like ARDUINO UNO, are
employed to secure homes and lockers. The
Password-Based Door Lock System emphasizes
simplicity, granting access to authorized individuals
entering the correct code. If someone else attempts
