Haha actually it is a taupe-ish grey. Somehow it looks lavendar in the evening....could be the reflection of the sky.
Yah I'm quite old-fashioned with regards to locks. Same as how padlocks can be cut or locks can be picked...I feel that digital locks can be hacked. No offense to anyone but I find it strange to have a manual gate but digital lock. I'm quite fearful the digital lock will malfunction then I'm stuck outside the house, even if it has a manual key. Maybe when the market for digital locks has matured more I might change it. Anyway just a preference. I like the old-school look of locksets too.
