In today's episode, I bought the cheapest digital keypad deadbolt lock I could find on Amazon.com. This was the Hugolog JU01 Digital Keypad deadbolt.
Here is an Amazon affiliate link for the Milescraft Dowel Jig Kit where I get a small percentage if you use it to purchase a product:

I review and show you how to install and set up the Hugolog deadbolt, and find some things worth knowing ahead of time. This is not a paid review, I just needed the deadbolt so that I could get in my garage/shop quicker and without keys, as I am constantly running in and out and don't always have my keys on me. The pin code style access made it much more convenient, and so far works every time.
