If the door is made of cardboard as most us's one are u better get the cheapest one it won't make a difference.... look at an European door if u don't now what I mean...
Check the YouTube channel 'the lockpicking lawyer". He picks locks, both mechanical and electrical. His typical videos don't take more than 2-3 minute because that's all he needs to pick a lock multiple times. Electrical locks usually are opened with a paperclip or something similar. Wat too many locks are designed and built by idiots who have no idea about security
I wish that he would try his hand on a lock from Yale. Considering that they are part of Assa Abloy who are very well respected in the lock business. My suspicion is that a company who are mainly makers of mechanical locks at least won't fall prey for the many of the beginners mistakes lockpicking lawyer points out.
Less secure.
They have their conveniences but I want to get this lock. It's design makes picking next to impossible. Lpl couldn't even get it. https://youtu.be/qV8QKZNFxLw?si=1WCdQCktVfGhJtsm
It's more secure as in I can't forget to not lock the door, since it auto-locks. Also I can't lock myself out of the house if I leave my keys inside, which I have done in the past lol. As the other nerds in here have said, it probably won't keep you any safer against people breaking in though, but I think of it in terms of convenience.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
