Can a sonic screwdriver open doors?

I'm asking this question about an already-built world, in accordance with Are questions based on movies okay?.
One of the most famous props on the television show Doctor Who is the sonic screwdriver, which can do quite a lot. In the words of the Doctor, "It is very good at opening doors." Many of the screwdriver's other capabilities seem far-fetched, but I'm interested in that particular one: Can a device, using near-future technology, open unlock locks (for the sake of the question, a standard dead bolt) using only sound waves?
