I'm not sure what type of keypad you're thinking of, if it's battery operated, make sure you change them regularly. We had one on our front door because the kids kept losing house keys, batteries died while we were in Vegas, parents had my keys, it was -30 when we got home at 1 am and our ride had left. Locked out. My brilliant boyfriend didn't want to wait for a locksmith so he kicked in the door.....

ah yes the battery operated door locks are a pain i avoid installing them on ppls homes. but can be handy. the system im puttingon the stand isnt operated by the battery but 12v power the battery is for backup power only the controller itself has a keypad lockonitfor sticky fingers so that ppl cant mess with the programming by accident

so finished up the framing on the stand then i figured it would be a great idea to test the sump under the stand for fit.....the sump is too @#$%%%# tall lol oops. it can still work just not a whole lotta room for working in and the skimmer will need a bit of strategic manouvering to get in. but at least the sump will set in place. i wont be upgrading the skimmer any time soon unless its external.
i may rework the bottom of the stand to add some height tho. if there is a will there is a way just means the tank will sit higher up. i forsee a step stool in my future. ir maybe investin some elevator shoes lol

I think a pair of Gene Simmons-esque boots would be stylin!......I feel for ya tho.....my first sump was made from a 55g tank that was 18" tall and it was a PITA to work in....so much so that I ended up having a custom sump made that was lower and wider.....made things much easier for working in the sump....
