📘 What is Gmod Keypad System and door lock manager addon?

Gmod Keypad System and door lock manager is a script that allows you to generate keypads on your Gmod server and link them to the map doors. Once linked the doors are locked according to the status of the keypad. A small red light on the keypad indicates that it is locked, orange blocked (when there are errors in the code sent), green to say that it is open.

The keypad generation system is easy to use, just aim at the place where you want to place a keypad and spawl it. To link it to a door press USE on it and USE on a door. That's it. Go back to the keypad if you do use it and you will see the interface open. The default code 0000 will allow you to do your tests before changing it.

From the management panel (admin menu of the keypad system). All the doors related to the keypads are displayed in the management menu. You will be able to manage the passwords, the status of the locks, and see all the keypads linked to the doors.

From the admin panel you can define some system rules. For example, the duration of the blocking of a keypad when a wrong password is inserted. By default it is set to 5 seconds.

Each keypad has three LEDs: red, green and orange.
The red LED means that it is locked.
The green LED means it is unlocked.
The orange LED means it is locked. The blocking time occurs after an error. You can define this timeout yourself.

You can link several keypads to a single door and the distance does not affect the proper functioning of the system, this is useful for creating hiding places, secret passage, enigma with reward, escape game, for your survival horror, etc.

🔨 A simple start and installation: How to place a keypad on gmod and link it to a door?

1- Aim at the place where you want to place a keypad.
2- Open the spawnmenu of the gmod sandbox, or if you don't use the sandbox from the spawmenu of the keypad management interface.
3- Click on the type of keypad of your choice which will appear where you aim.
4- Press USE on the Keypad and then USE on the door of your choice. That's it. The default password is 0000. Go back to your keypad and type in this code to verify. To change the password you will see the new line displayed with the code 0000.

To add a second Keypad in the other direction on the same door, just do the same manipulation. The password will remain the one you have configured.
