sending codes by email

can I generate time-based codes or delete them?

With our ECOSMART Guestkey access control system, you can generate temporary codes to grant access to individuals for a specific period.

This functionality is particularly useful for managing access in hotel facilities such as hotels and B&Bs, where guests need to access the rooms only during their stay.

In this way, the access control system becomes even more secure and efficient. If necessary, you can also delete the generated codes to deactivate them.

How to create codes for common rooms, gates and doors.

To generate the codes, simply log in to the Guestlock platform and select the room dedicated to your guest. From here, you can choose to create a code and set the desired options, such as validity period and code type.

Once the code is generated, you can send it to the customer via WhatsApp and email. This message will automatically include the code for common doors specifically created for that guest.

What type of code can I create?

What is the FIRST ACCESS code?

First access with energy and electronic lock equipped with an energy saving pocket, which allows the guest to enter the room with a code, valid only for the first time.

The host sends the code to the guest, and the guest will find the card inside the room, which he will use for subsequent entries into the room. The card will no longer be valid once it expires.

In this way, the customer will be forced to use the card, which, when removed from the energy saving pocket, will disconnect the electrical utilities when the customer leaves the room, ensuring significant energy savings.
