Circuit Diagram
Assembling the Components
1. **Prepare the Vero Board:**
- Cut the Vero board to a suitable size.
- Place the components on the board and arrange them according to the circuit diagram.
2. **Soldering:**
- Solder the components in place. Ensure that all connections are secure and there are no short circuits.
- Attach the wires to connect the components as per the circuit diagram.
3. **Connecting to Arduino:**
- Connect the keypad to the Arduino pins according to the pin configuration specified in the code.
- Connect the relays, solenoid lock, push button switch, and other components to the Arduino as shown in the circuit diagram.
4. **Power Supply:**
- Connect the battery casing to provide 12V power to the circuit.
- Ensure that the power connections are secure and the batteries are properly placed.

## Testing and Usage
1. **Initial Setup:**
- Power on the Arduino by pressing the power switch.
- The default password is `1234#`.
2. **Unlocking the Door:**
- Enter the default password `1234#` on the keypad within 8 seconds.
- If the password is correct, the door lock will open.
- If the password is incorrect or the time runs out, the power will be cut off.
3. **Changing the Password:**
- Enter the current password and press `*` within 15 seconds.
- If the password is correct, enter the new 4-digit password followed by `*`.
- The new password will be saved to the EEPROM.
