How can I get a key replacement for a 2012 Kia optima?

Asked by Joseph over 1 year ago

Go to your local locksmith, they can usually come out to you and do that on site. Or go to the dealer.

I want to convert a push bar door to electronic mag-lock (prox tags, fingerprint, phone....etc).

Do I need to get a special type for a push bar or can I use any type with a magnetic strike plate?

Asked by JoelN about 2 years ago

There are a lot of components that goes into the set up you are talking about. It’s very difficult to interpret what you’re trying to do exactly, I’m not sure you’re using the correct terminology. This set up consist of a special type of push bar that has a switch in it, a mag lock, power supply, some form of card reader, fingerprint reader etc. I would highly recommend hiring a professional as this is something that needs to be designed & installed correctly. There are also local codes that restrict usage of mag locks in some areas, or require special permits for installation of these.
