Hotel keyless entry system

Self check-in for accommodations via keyless systems is the evolution of traditional to digital hospitality. Forget physical keys and step into the world of keyless self check-in. Remotely open the doors of your guest accommodation or let your visitors log in on their own with our keyless system, after they have identified themselves through online check-in.

Through the remote check-in for hotel and apartment buildings, guests are provided with a mobile key prior to their arrival at the accommodation for independent access, while you can focus on other things. The digital key enables the guest to open doors only for the period necessary for their stay, thus ensuring 100% secure keyless access, for you and your guests.
