This FrightProps tutorial walks through wiring a keypad trigger to a magnetic lock so that entering the correct code releases the lock — a classic escape room mechanic. The setup is presented as beginner-friendly and budget-conscious, requiring only a few off-the-shelf components. A companion wiring diagram is provided on the FrightProps website to guide the build. It's a clean, practical demonstration suitable for haunted attractions and escape rooms alike.
FrightProps showcases the LocKeeper, a keypad controller designed specifically for escape room applications. The unit supports up to four individually programmable codes, each capable of triggering a dedicated relay output independently. This makes it straightforward to build multi-stage puzzles or control multiple locks from a single keypad interface. The video walks through how the system is configured and how each code-to-relay pairing works in practice.
