How to Get Started With RemoteLock
Managing a property can be a complex task, and access control is just one piece of the puzzle. But RemoteLock makes access control easier than ever. Whether you’re managing multifamily housing, vacation rentals, or commercial properties, RemoteLock offers a scalable, easy-to-use platform that helps streamline operations and enhance security.
Why Do You Need Access Control?
Access control is the process of managing who can enter specific areas of a property and when. Traditional methods of controlling access, such as physical keys, are cumbersome, insecure, and often ineffective. Keys are easily shared, easily copied, and there’s no way for a property manager to know who has a key to a given area or who’s using it at a given time.
Modern access control refers to the collection of tools and technologies that allow property managers to control physical doors, gates, elevators, parking garages, shared spaces, and more. With keyless entry systems, smart locks, and cloud-based management platforms, managers can provide greater security, flexibility, and convenience to guests, residents, owners, and staff.
What is RemoteLock?
RemoteLock is a cloud-based access control platform designed to simplify property management for a variety of property types. RemoteLock offers a flexible and scalable solution that allows you to control and monitor access from anywhere, using one intuitive dashboard. With RemoteLock, you can manage access to every door, create access schedules, and even integrate smart thermostats to optimize energy use.
RemoteLock also features powerful software integrations with popular property management software (PMS), enabling you to manage access seamlessly alongside your other property management tools. With these key integrations, RemoteLock allows you to add features like automatic code generation, self check-in, and digital upsells, ensuring that you can provide seamless access control while improving operational efficiency. It’s ideal for property managers who want an easy-to-deploy system to enhance their property management processes.
RemoteLock for Vacation Rentals
For vacation rentals, RemoteLock can offer your guests a seamless check-in process without the need for face-to-face interactions, physical key handoffs, or lockboxes. Using smart locks integrated with RemoteLock, property managers can generate and send unique codes that are only valid for the length of a guest’s stay, then expire when the guest checks out — and by integrating with their choice of property management or booking software, managers can even generate these codes automatically whenever a property is booked.
RemoteLock’s compatibility with smart lock brands means property managers can mix and match the hardware that best suits each property’s needs — Yale, Schlage, Kwikset, and more. This flexibility makes it easier to equip multiple properties with different lock types while managing them all from one platform. For property management companies who manage a collection of private properties, the ability to manage multiple lock types and brands from one dashboard is especially useful.
RemoteLock for Multifamily Properties
Multifamily property management presents its own unique challenges, especially when managing multiple properties and locations with hundreds or thousands of doors. With our unique ability to group and assign doors, it’s easy to keep track of unit doors, common areas, and even unconventional access areas like elevators and parking garages. Managers can also mix and match lock brands and types, including key cards, PINs, fobs, and even mobile credentials.
RemoteLock also allows property managers to offer self-guided tours to prospective residents. Prospects can receive time-limited access codes to tour units on their own schedule, providing a flexible experience that’s increasingly in demand. By automating access management, property managers can focus on other important tasks, reducing the workload for on-site staff and making day-to-day operations more efficient.
RemoteLock for Commercial Properties
Commercial properties often require managing access across multiple entry points and ensuring that staff, visitors, and vendors can enter securely. RemoteLock provides property managers with a scalable solution that adapts to the changing needs of their properties. Whether it’s an office building, retail space, or a mix of both, RemoteLock allows for detailed access permissions to ensure that each person only has access to the areas they need.
With RemoteLock, commercial property managers can also remotely revoke or modify access in real time, which is particularly helpful for managing temporary employees, service providers, or deliveries. The flexibility of the system allows managers to easily adjust access schedules and permissions, making it a perfect fit for properties with high foot traffic and varied user access requirements.
How to Get Started
Getting started with RemoteLock is straightforward. If you’re managing a property portfolio with more than ten doors, RemoteLock offers flexible subscription plans that grow with your needs. The easy-to-use dashboard ensures that you can begin managing access immediately after setup, giving you more time to focus on what matters most — providing great service to your tenants and guests.To see how RemoteLock can simplify your property management, get started here and explore how RemoteLock can provide a secure, scalable access control solution for your properties.
