access code
Digital door opener
An access code is a sequence of characters—numbers, letters, or both—that grants entry to a restricted system, building, or service.
You enter an access code to unlock a door, retrieve voicemail, or log into an account: The gate access code is 4521.
Unlike passwords, access codes are often numeric and shared among authorized users rather than tied to individuals.
