ABSTRACT

As technology advances and expands on a daily basis, safety becomes increasingly essential in
all disciplines.

Everyone desires a private place where no one can enter without their permission, thus we need
to secure our room, office, locker, etc. that preserve our valuable accessories, documents, data,
and jewelry, and for thatpurpose, the proposed work has developed a "Password based door lock
system by using Arduino.".This deviceis a digital door lock with a password or pin code.

Which prevents the user from opening the door unless they input the correct password or pin
code.physical keys are the most natural way to lock or open a door, and everyone is familiar with
it. Although the physical key is a well-proven and well-known technology, it is not without
faults. For a lock, there can only be one unique key.

Different keys are required for various locks. Carrying a big number of keys is also
inconvenient.

Smart locks are key-less door locks that let you unlock your door without having to use a real
key. A smart lock is an electromagnetically lock that is meant to lock and unlock a door when it
receives instructions from an authorized device and executes the authorization procedure using a
cryptographic key.

1.0. INTRODUCTION
The term "door lock" refers to a device that prohibits a door from being opened and that can only
be opened with a key, fingerprint, retina scanner, smartcard, or other similar device. Door locks
have played a vital role in human life for a long time.

As the rate of theft rises, security has become a top priority in recent years. Door locks are
intended to keep us and our belongings safe and secure from thieves .People used to lock home
doors with physical keys, and they required the key to unlock doors.

If they lost the key, it was unlikely to repair, and it was expensive. Now, those door lock systems
may be replaced with new locking technologies. The ARDUINO Uno, Servo motor, 4*4 keypad
module, and jumper wires comprise the password-based door lock system. In this project, we
will use the keypad to enter a password and then use the servo motor to open the door lock.

The ARDUINO is the program's brain, controlling the entire system. The password or pin code is
entered using the 4*4 keypad module. The servo motor pushes (locks) or pulls (unlocks) the
door's latch .

1.1. PROBLEM OF STATEMENT

Traditional door locking systems are prone to various challenges, including unauthorized access,
the risk of key duplication, and inconvenience in managing physical keys. These systems lack
the capability to integrate advanced authentication methods, such as password protection, to
enhance security. In an era where smart technology is becoming increasingly prevalent, there is a
pressing need for a secure, efficient, and user-friendly door locking system to address these
issues.

In our daily lives, safety is a major concern. Every person requires a sense of safety. Our
security pattern includes an access control system for doors. Traditional locks are no longer as
secure as they once were; anyone can gain access by breaking these locks.

We need to create a system that will assist 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Only authorized
individuals have access to restricted areas thanks to a password-based door lock system. Arduino
is in charge of the entire system. A keypad can be used to enter the password. The door opens if
the password matches the password entered in Arduino

1.2. Limitation of project

1.Power Dependenc - The system relies on continuous power; a power failure could disable the
lock unless a backup source is provided.

2. Durability: - Servo motors or solenoid locks may wear out over time with frequent use.

3. Weather Sensitivity: - If installed outdoors, components may be rust.

4 .Security Concerns: - Basic Arduino boards do not have advanced encryption, making the

system vulnerable to hacking.e affected by moisture, temperature fluctuations, or dust .

2. LITERATURE SURVEY

Passwords aren't a novel concept when it comes to locking doors. However, as technology
advances, these systems have become more sophisticated.

Akshaya Krishnadas Bhat et al. [1] This article illustrates how a password-protected door lock
can be used in a variety of settings, including the home, office, and desk. The system will check
the user's entered password for validity before unlocking it for the authorized user. This method
could be a less expensive alternative to expensive door lock systems that use retina scans, iris
scans, or fingerprints, among several other technologies.

Prof.A.Y. Prabhakar et al. [2] - This article shows how an ARDUINO UNO-based password-
based door lock system is created, where the door is unlocked and the user who input the right
code is authorized to enter the zone. And the common individual can bid on such a locking
system for a low price in order to ensure the protection of their valuables.

Dr. Manish kumar et al. [3] This study states how we may use an Android-based smart door lock
system to address the issues of unwanted access, trespassing, and instruction. Also included in
this concept is a bluetoothmodule that serves as a communication channel between the Arduino
Uno and a mobile phone. This application is simple to set up and maintain.

Shruti Jalpur et al. [4]– This paper depicts a secure and protected door lock system, with network
security supplied by the use of cryptographic algorithms such as SHA-128 and SHA-512. The
technology also allows the authorized user to access the information remotely. The user input is

encrypted and hashed using the algorithms AES-128 and SHA-512. If the sensor detects
unauthorized access, it will send a notification to the smart phone application placed on the
authorized user's smartphone.

Aleksander IBRO et al. [5]- This article depicts a door lock system that allows users to unlock
the door using

face recognition and data stored on the cloud via a camera installed on the door. This work will
be quite costly, and it will necessitate the installation and employment of qualified experts.

3.1. FLOW CHART

The flow chart above depicts the entire step by step procedure. Here, users must first enter the
predefined password, which will be read by the keypad, and if the password is correct, the servo
motor will turn on and turn the door lock; if the password is incorrect, the servo motor will not
turn on, and we must retype the password which have been predefined in the programme.
Passwords can be updated as needed by the user.

2. 4x4 Matrix Keypad

The understanding of how the keypad works is simple. The display of figures or letters on the
screen of our computers depends on the key of the keypad been pressed. Nevertheless, much
understanding is also required from the technical work of switching wires with a supply current
(positive +) that is grounded to the other end of the connected wires.

The polymer material used in these Keypad Modules is thin and flexible. The 16 keys in the 4*4
Keypad module are grouped in a matrix of rows and columns. An electrical wire connects all of
these switches together. In most cases, there is no link between rows and columns. When we
push the key, a row and a column fall into touch.

3. SERVO MOTOR:
A servo motor is a simple electric motor which is controlled by servomechanism. When a DC
motor is used as a controlled device in conjunction with a servo mechanism, it is referred to as a
DC Servo Motor. AC Servo-Motor refers to a controlled motor that is powered by AC

This A servo motor is a rotational or translational motor that receives power from a servo
amplifier and is used to impart torque or force to a mechanical device like an actuator or a brake.
Servo motors provide exact angular position, acceleration, and velocity control. A closed-loop
control system is used with this type of motor. A closed-loop control system takes the current
output into account and adjusts it to the desired state. The output of the motor drives the control
action in these systems. The velocity and final position of the shaft is controlled by a positive
feedback mechanism.

In these motors, there are two forms of current flow: AC and DC. AC servo motors are more
typically found in heavy industrial machines because they can sustain higher current surges. DC
Servo Motors from ISL are best suited for compact applications and provide great control and
feedback. The frequency of the applied voltage and the number of magnetic poles affect the
speed of a servo motor.

4. 16×2 LCD Display:

An LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic display module and has a wide range of
applications. A 16x2 LCD is a very basic module and is very commonly used in various devices
and circuits. A 16x2 LCD means it 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.
This LCD has two registers, namely, Command and Data.

5, Jumper Wires
Simple terms, jumper wires are wires with connection pins on both ends. A jumper wire is
sometimes referred to as a jumper, a jumper cable, a DuPont, or a cable. Without soldering,
jumper wires are used to connect electronic components or a test circuit. Jumper wires come in a
variety of colours, and the fact that they all work the same colors doesn't mean anything.

figur 7 jumper wire

Jumper wires typically come in three different versions

 Male-to male jumper wire

 Male-to-female jumper wire
 Female-to-female jumper wire

The end points of male jumper wires have a pin that is used to connect to other components,
whereas female jumper wires do not. Female jumper wires do not have pins on their ends and are
used to plug into items. The most common type of jumper wire used to connect components is
male-to-male jumper wires.

5. CONCLUSION

Thus “Smart Door Locking System using Arduino” is a modern successor of the conventional
door locking system. The conclusion of the discussion of smart Lock using Arduino is the
innovation created from the lock system with no more direct contact between the user and the
lock. This system is very cost-effective and easy to install. In conclusion, it was discovered that
the project performed according to specification and can be implemented. The use of the
Arduino UNO microcontroller in this project allows for design simplicity, hence, the project can
be achieved in lesser time compared to other techniques previously employed. This work
proposes a secure locking/unlocking system based on a keypad and Arduino. Adding password
to the Arduino side increase the system security. The system also has a feature for locking itself
after some delayed time. This system could be used to prevent houses, companies, institutions
from stealing or losing the ordinary key

6. FUTURE WORK

As long as the password is not shared with anyone, this application can provide perfect security.
Users can introduce constraints to the password entry process to make it safer. Also add a
fingerprint scanner and a display model to show messages such as whether the door is locked or
not. Instead of using a keypad module, can employ smart cards to open doors with the same
model. In the future, the proposed system can employ a power supply adaptor instead of a battery
for power transfer
