He claims it is ok because he knocks and wasnt heard so he used the key because he had a purpose for entrance . Is it ok if he knocks but isnt heard ?

Bismihi Ta'ala

If he is not heard then he should according to the Hadith, knock three times. If still there is no reply, then he should not enter the home, but instead leave.

And Allah knows best.
