Abstract

A dual-system lock includes a lockset including a combination lock and a near field communication. The combination lock includes a contact. The near field communication includes a contacting pin. A mobile apparatus transmits a signal to the near field communication. The near field communication determines and verifies whether a verification code of the mobile apparatus is correct or not. If the near field communication determines that the verification code of the mobile apparatus is correct, the contacting pin of the near field communication is connected and contacted to the contact of the combination lock, and the near field communication transmits a message including a number to the mobile apparatus, wherein the number is a correct unlocking number. If the near field communication determines that the verification code of the mobile apparatus is incorrect, the near field communication does not transmit the message to the mobile apparatus.
