Commonly asked questions
Managing a vacation rental comes with its own set of challenges, from securing your property to ensuring a seamless guest experience.
There are several factors to consider when choosing a smart lock for a vacation rental property. First, consider ease of use for your guests; a lock with a PIN code is easier for guests to use without having to pick up a key or fob from a manager before checking in. You’ll want a durable lock for added security and a longer lifespan. If your property is in a location you don’t often visit, battery life might also be a priority.
As many as you want. Whether you're managing a single vacation rental property or dozens of properties all over the world, you can unify access control to all of them with RemoteLock's dashboard.
Absolutely. One of the most useful features is the ability to unify access control across multiple hardware options, at any number of doors, locations, and properties. You can mix and match any number of compatible locks from well-known manufacturers and still create unified access rules, user settings, and schedules.
Of course! With our enterprise plan, you can assign privileges on your RemoteLock account in any way you need. With multiple levels of control, you can grant specific access control options to any number of managers, staff, and users.
If you want your property manager to be able to add and remove users, but not locks, you can easily configure that setting. You can configure your account so that front desk staff can grant temporary codes to delivery workers and contractors, but not change residents’ access settings. You can even ensure that staff at one property can’t change settings at another property.
In addition to traditional front door locks, RemoteLock can be configured to manage more unorthodox points of entry like elevators, parking garages, magnetic locks, and glass doors.
RemoteLock also has the ability to remotely manage and control thermostats. Property owners and managers can ensure that they’re not wasting heat or cooling on an empty unit or even adjust the temperature a few hours before guests arrive so that they’re walking into a comfortable room.
Traditional physical keys can be easily copied, passed on to others, or lost, adding hassle and cost to your property management. They also afford owners zero visibility. There’s no way to see who used a key or when.
Smart locks paired with access control software don’t rely on physical keys. With RemoteLock, you see who has entered your property and when. You can also set up alerts for failed access attempts. Best of all, you can easily revoke access in just a few clicks from your dashboard or set up codes to expire automatically as soon as your guests’ stay ends.
