Hi - I need to get a keypad in order to open a side gate lock. I was looking at this one (link below) but someone mentioned it may not be secure as could just be smashed and wires touched together. Any recommendations of what people have used or know works please?

I have used a Storm Interface "AXS Strikemaster" since late 2015 to open a pair of motorised gates. It has a pair of outputs that can be used for 2 codes or 1 code and a doorbell. It looks good, is properly weatherproof and mechanically robust.

There is one problem with mine: every few months, an output (either one) can get stuck in the active state. I think this occurs after code entry; the LED goes from red to green, the output asserts, and it then crashes. The LED staying green indicates the fault condition. Not sure if this is a design issue or a one-off.

My fix was to switch power to the keypad through a miniserver relay, and use logic to detect the fault - in which case the power is cycled (10 seconds off then back on).
