comment
" ...  Although the manual claims that the sounds can be muted, in practice this is not true -- the keys make loud beeping sounds when you press them no matter what. ... After less than two months of use, the lock has also started to buzz annoyingly when I press the keys and when it unlocks.  ...  "
