Hangeul Door Lock literally is a digital door lock that use Hanguel passwords instead of numbers.

Door locks in everyday life do not fully express design features unique to Korea. This product set out from the idea that if we use Hangeul, Korean alphabet, instead of numbers, people of all ages would be able to use the door locks easily. Hanguel door lock literally is a digital door lock that use Hanguel passwords instead of numbers. Users can set up passwords within five letters. The keypad adopts 'Cheon-Ji-In' system so that anyone can easily use. Overall design derives from the features of traditional doorknobs to be in harmony with the Korean style house, Hanok.
