HSU Basic advantages of electronic locks
- Simple issue of keycards at any time. The keycard issuing equipment is convenient and easy to use. It allows quick providing a new copy. At the same time, the cost of each one remains quite low. Due to this fact, there is no need to take a keycard back when a guest leaves the facility or an employee quits.
- Hight security level. An electronic key contains not only access data, but also some personal information of the holder. Modern encryption technologies prevent copying data using any available means. This allows you to solve security issues that are truly important for both your business and guests / employees.
- Minimum operating costs. No mechanical impact during operation guarantees a longer service life of electronic locking mechanisms. Maintenance usually implies just changing batteries (on average every 12 months) to ensure further autonomous operation of the device. This distinguishes electronic hostel locks against the background of ordinary mechanical models.
Electronic key and something more
HSU electronic locks work with contactless keys of the Mifare standard. This is especially convenient for hotels, hostels and boarding houses, since such a card can be easily integrated with PMS, ACS, restaurant business management systems, etc. As a result, an electronic key not only provides access to a particular room, but also can be used as a personal loyalty card, a tool for preparing a cafe bill and a parking pass.
Besides, the same function set is useful for office centers too. For example, an electronic key can provide access to administrative premises not intended for visitors, be used as a parking pass, a permanent discount coupon of a local cafe, etc. An electronic card can be read by locks, turnstiles, NFC-enabled smartphone terminals. This allows to bring access control to a high level of automation and makes the daily routine more convenient for users.
Burglary and corrosion protection
Load-bearing components of electronic office locks are made of high-tensile steel. All electronic elements are compound-covered. This provides the construction with mechanical strength and makes it corrosion-resistant at the same time. In addition to high wear resistance, electronic locks can be installed on exterior doors, gates, street turnstiles and boom barriers.
Unauthorized entry is also prevented by a double latch in combination with a closed-door sensor. They let nobody push back the latch from the outside using any lock picking tools of any other objects like a knife or a plastic card. A free-traveling handle also prevents forced entry and makes it almost impossible to break the locking mechanism.
Scalable functionality
After issuing a keycard, an administrator of the office or the hotel can add or cancel certain options. For example, to enable the function of opening the look on the SPA-center door on receiving payment for additional services. An office employee after promotion of changing their position can get access to a new office or technical rooms.
It is possible to provide new functions in conjunction with PMS. New options may include preparing an electronic bill in the hotel bar or unlocking the boom barrier at the parking lot. It is especially convenient to use conditional restrictions. For example, a guest cannot leave the parking lot if they have not fully paid for the services of the boarding house, or access to the SPA-area will be restricted until a guest makes an appointment with a masseur. Due to this conjunction, if a keycard is lost, all the necessary data concerning unpaid bills, provided discounts and bonuses, as well as enabled access remain in the system.
Electronic locks for boarding houses, hotels and office centers are a very convenient tool for your business. HSU products pay off quickly, do not require specific maintenance and prevent break-ins. Using electronic locking mechanisms of the highest quality, it is absolutely possible for you to reduce costs, provide comfort and safety for all guests and employees.
