More info  please.

Access codes are like passwords that allows only those who know the password or code to use what is beyond that. It is similar to a car key and can be lost easily. Many people rely on their memory for a password that can be as easily lost or stolen as car key. These devices are used to restrict the access of others who may otherwise use their access to abuse the opportunity of their entry.

To me, this raises another question...how important is what I have behind this lock? By removing my critical data to a removable memory, my concerns of theft or abuse has steadily declined. I have complete details of the content and maintenance of my home and insurance compensation in event of loss. So now my access codes are quite simple and with nothing of interest to access... my concerns are diminished.
