Electronic hotel, hostel, office, sanatorium and boarding house locks

Peculiarities of HSU electronic lock software

There are some features due to which electronic locking devices are so popular among modern owners of hotels, hostels and business centers:

• The same keycard can be used to open as many doors as you need. The lock-opening data are contained in the keycard itself. The information about the needed keys is not stored in the lock. On the one hand, it makes it impossible to read private information from the locking mechanism. On the other hand, this feature allows you to provide and block access to any number of doors.
• A complicated encryption algorithm. All the data stored in keycards of Mifare standard are reliably protected from copying. It is impossible to have such a keycard duplicated at the nearest workshop as compared to mechanical keys. This approach not only protects against unauthorized entry into the premises, but also ensures the safety of personal data.
• A keycard can open the doors within particular time limits. When issuing a keycard, an administrator can set some limits on its operation. For example, until a certain date, every day within specified hours, etc. This makes electronic boarding house locks a convenient tool to monitor and control actions of the personnel as well as check-ins and check-outs of guests.
• Automatic blocking of other cards. With electronic locks, you don't need to take keys back when a guest or an employee leaves the facility. It is enough just to issue a new keycard with the same features and use it to open the same doors. All the previously issued keycards are immediately blocked.
• Providing access to as many access zones as required. You can easily manage and adjust access to any areas for your guests and employees without restrictions. An administrator can dynamically change the access rights of each keycard. For example, on paying an additional fee, a guest immediately gets access to the hotel gym or swimming pool. Some office employees can get access to the technical premises (server rooms, warehouse, utility rooms, etc.)
• All door-opening events are logged. Electronic hotel locks store all the data concerning each door-opening cycle indicating the time and keycard data. This information can be transferred to the hotel management system or be stored only in the device memory. Combined with the video surveillance system, this feature is extremely useful to prevent theft and other force majors.

Technical advantages of electronic locks

The construction of HSU locks has some strong advantages in comparison with their mechanical analogs:

• A free-traveling handle. This design feature prevents forced entry and breaking the lock. In addition, it protects the mechanism from damage as a result of not especially careful handling.
• The Anti-panic quick unlocking system is located from the inside, allowing people in the room to leave it quickly in case of fire or any other emergency. The mechanism works instantly to prevent panic and crowding.
• A mechanical cylinder, that is the locking element, is made of high-tensile steel and is included in each lock set. Moving parts of the system are practically not subject to wear and tear, therefore they are especially durable.
• A double latch is a well-designed element and in combination with the closed-door sensor prevents pushing it back from the outside using any available tools. This is an effective protection against break-ins.
• Protection of electronic components. Compound prevents corrosion and dust penetration. Due to this feature, electronic sanatorium locks can be installed on external doors and gates.
• Emergency door opening from the outside is also provided. Even if the Do not disturb mode is activated, the personnel can enter a room or an office. This is an important option that is extremely useful when a person behind the door needs some help.
• Quick keycard reading requires just about a quarter of a second. Your guests and employees will like this feature, because it increases the comfort level significantly.
