LOCKING SOLUTIONS FOR AIRBNB & SHORT TERM RENTALS

Imagine you wake up one morning to a phone call, telling you that one of the attendants at your flat has been attacked by a former attendant who has the key or the access code. Believe us when we say, this could be your worst nightmare coming to life.

It’s amazing to think how Airbnb and other hospitality facilities are using locking systems that aren’t suitable for their owners’ needs.

Being that these facilities have a very high user turnover, the first thing that needs to be done is the placing of an ultimate locking system.

Owners of Airbnb apartments, short term rentals and other hospitality facilities, tend to assume they don’t need to install high-security locking systems. That’s a wrong assumption and, potentially, a very dangerous one.

Renting out temporary accommodation means there’s a build-in risk existing of someone acquiring permanent access to one or more of your properties, putting you and your customers in a dangerous position, both physically and legally. 

The lack of control or a low-security locking system in short term rentals can potentially be a serious headache and become a legal and criminal matter.

In addition, the wrong locking system solutions for your Airbnb facility may cause unnecessary expenses, leading you to spend more than you earn.

The big advantage in a locking solution that is suitable for Airbnb is that it’s flexible and can be installed at any time, without the need of any infrastructure changes.

One last thing: Airbnb apartments, unlike big organizations or companies, are also exposed to random breaking and entry with internet tools.
