 ABSTRACT

The purpose of this project is to serve security to the house or any kind of vault, institutions or
public places. Everyone desires a private place where no one can enter without their
permission, that preserve our valuable accessories, documents, data. The traditional lock and
key are no longer secure as they once they were. There are easy tricks to open the traditional
lock and key.

This device is a digital door lock with a password. It cannot be tampered with and hence
prevents the user from opening the door unless they provide the correct password .

In this system, the user will have to register a unique password using 4x4 keypad. The
information will be stored in database. The entered password is further sent to Arduino Uno.
Here with the help of the uploaded C program it compares if the entered password is same as
the preset password. If the entered password is correct it sends a message to the servo motor to
open the door and displays “Door open” on the LCD. If wrong password is entered then the
door remains closed and displays “Wrong password” on LCD. It also alarms the user through a
buzzer.

 INTRODUCTION

Password Based Door Lock System using Arduino UNO is a simple project where a secure
password will act as a door unlocking system. These methods are a combination of mechanical
and electronic devices. Main idea behind this project is of a door-latch opening using a
password entered through keypad.

Today people are facing more problems about security in all over world. Nowadays security is
the most essential issue everywhere in the world so security of everything gains higher and
higher importance in recent years. Main concept behind this project is of a door-closing and
opening using a password entered through keypad. Old fashioned lock systems use mechanical
locking and these can be replaced by new advanced techniques of locking systems.

The main component in the circuit is Arduino. Here, 4x4 keypad is used to enter the password.
The entered password is compared with the preset password. If it is correct password, the
system opens the door by rotating door motor and displays the status of door on LCD. If the
password is wrong then door remains closed and displays, password is wrong on LCD.
One of the distinct features of these intelligent lock systems is their simplicity and high
efficiency. Such an automated lock system consists of electronic control assembly, which
controls the output load through a password. It also alarms the user through a buzzer.

 PROBLEM STATEMENT

The most common problem people come across with using the traditional lock and key method
is that sometimes we step out of our home and the latch gets locked by mistake while we are
still out and we end up being locked out of our own home.

The after problems of entering the house takes a lot of effort, time and money as we will have
to duplicate the lock or have to change the entire locking system.

Our project is designed and built to overcome this problem and to enter the password whenever
we want with utmost security without the fear of getting locked out.

 AIM AND OBJECTIVES

Aim:
The main aim of the proposed system is to provide authorized access by preventing unauthorized
access to provide security.

Objectives:
1. Enter the password in the 4x4 keypad.
2.To display and ensure the door opening when correct password is entered.
3. To display and ensure the locked door when wrong password is entered.

17
PROPOSED METHODOLOGY

18
 HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE DETAILS

Hardware components:

1.Arduino Uno: The Arduino Uno-board

is a 8 bit-microcontroller. It has I/0 pins including
both digital and analog pins.

2. Bread board: It is a rectangular board having mounting

holes present everywhere on it in a systematic manner. They are used
for creating connections between components. The connections
are not permanent and therefore can be removed and placed again

19
4. Jumpers Wires: It is an electrical wire having connector
(pin) at each end which is used for connecting the components.
There is no need of soldering if one is using the breadboard for
making connections between components in their project.

5. SG-90 Servo Motor: It is small and light weight server motor

with large output power. A servo motor
can turn 90 degree in either direction.

6. 4x4 keypad matrix:

The 16 keys in the 4*4 Keypad
module are grouped in a
matrix of rows and columns. 20
7. LCD display: A 16x2 Liquid Crystal Display can
display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines.
In this LCD each character is displayed in a 5x7 pixel matrix.
The 16 x 2 intelligent alphanumeric dot matrix display is
capable of displaying 224 different characters and symbols.

8. Potentiometer: The potentiometer is also an input

device of Arduino that can be used for various purposes like
controlling the brightness of LED or LCD by increasing or
decreasing its resistance. In this write-up a potentiometer is
interfaced with Arduino and its values are displayed on the LCD.

9. Buzzer: A buzzer or beeper is an audio signaling device,

which may be mechanical, electromechanical, or piezoelectric.
They are alarm devices, timers, train and
confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or keystroke. 21
Software:

The Arduino programming language is based on C. The C programming language is a procedural

and general-purpose language that provides low-level access to system memory. A program written
in C must be run through a C compiler to convert it into an executable that a computer can run.

The Arduino Integrated Development Environment - or Arduino

Software (IDE) - contains a text editor for writing code, a
message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common
functions and a series of menus. It connects to the Arduino
hardware to upload programs and communicate with them.

The above figure shows the display of granting access. Since the user has entered a password that
matches the predefined password set by the user, it grants the access to the user and displays
“Door is open” on the LCD display.

The above figure shows the Display of denying the access. Since the user has entered a password
that doesn’t match with the predefined password set by the user, it doesn’t grant access to the user
and displays “Wrong password” on the LCD display.

 ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES

Advantages:
• Pick-proof
• Easy access
• Create e-keys instead of duplicate keys
• Don’t have to worry about forgotten keys
• Maintenance cost is negligible
• Password can be reset easily
• Perfect for elderly
• Cannot be tampered easily

Disadvantages:
• Replacement is costly
• Good quality digital door lock is costly but secure
30
• Doesn’t work during power failure
 APPLICATIONS & FUTURE SCOPE

Applications:
• This simple circuit can be used at residential places to ensure better safety.
• It can be used at organizations to ensure authorized access to highly secured places.
• With a slight modification this Project can be used to control the switching of loads through
password.

Future scope:
We can send this data to a remote location using mobile or internet. We can add fingerprint
sensor so entry will be allowed for the authorized person using their fingerprints.
The system can be easily connected to the personal computer for the control.
We can use this system as an attendance register for the students who enter a classroom with
their respective password.
31
 CONCLUSION

The above model of password enabled door locking system has designed and tested.
The outcomes of the model was as per the expectations where only authorized
personnels are allowed to enter.

This system can prove to be a cheaper alternative for the expensive door locking
system that use retina scan, iris scan, fingerprint scan, RFID card and pattern. It is cost
effective because we are using affordable component costs. The future work for this
project involves adding a biometric scanner in place of the keypad.

It is extremely simple to develop code, and anyone may use this model for security
purposes. Because the existing door lock system has an issue with expensive and
irreplaceable components, one may use an Arduino-based door lock system to solve
this problem because it is simple to install and remove. Therefore, the "Password-
based door lock system using Arduino" is a time-saving programmable module that
will assist us in providing excellent security. 32
