We're live in a reality where many problems can be solved by technology. Lost keys are one of those problems. We all lose our keys and leave ourselves stranded by the front door once in a while, and locksmiths are expensive. That's why Bluetooth fingerprint and touchscreen smart locks, like this one from Ultraloq, are becoming more popular: All you have to do is program the lock to recognize your fingerprint and lock code and—presto—you’re in. Although it sounds high tech, the Ultraloq takes just ten minutes to install. (It also allows you to unlock the door by turning your phone over in your pocket four times, which will feel novel at least the first 10 times you do it.) Plus, it tracks who has access to your lock and when they enter your home or office. Typically, it costs $320, but they're on sale today for just $168.99, and you can save an additional 10% off by using code MADMARCH10 at checkout.
