Maybe the new tasks will be more interesting, but, really: what about duplicating the working keys? Would that really take more than six hours?

I don't mean to be rude, but to me it seems an abuse of technology to solve a problem lying somewhere else.

It'd be great if you could alert people who might have a meeting with that person (at the gate) or who are working with that person on a project that they have arrived. Awesome project.

How about, controlling:

The lights, A/C, or adding a webcam to your door
