Learn how to create a secure Arduino-based pasword door lock system using a 4×4 keypad and I2c LCD. This course is ideal for intermediate and educators wanting to explore hands-on electronics, coding and real world application of embedded systems. You’ll simulate and test your projectusing Tinkercad, an online Arduino simulator-no physical components required!

Do I need real Arduino hardware to complete this project?
No. You can complete the entire project using the Tinkercad Simulator, which is free and browser based. However, the project can also be built with real hardware if you prefer hand on practice.
Can i use a 3x4 keypad instead of a 4x4 keypad?
Ye, but you will need to modify the code to accommodate the different layout and fewer keys.
What happen if I enter the wrong password?
The system will display "Access Denied" on the LCD and reset the password input buffer for another attempt.
Can I change the default password in the code?
Yes. The default password (e.g. "1234") is hardcoded. You can change it directly in the Arduino sketch by editing the "correctPassword" variable.
What if the LCD screen shows nothing?
-Check the I2C address in your code.
-Ensure power connection are correct.
-Use potentiometer or adjust LCD contrast if using physical hardware.
Is this project suitable for school students?
Definitely! This is a beginner friendly project ideal for STEM programs, robotics clubs or secondary school students interested in electronics and coding.
