Protect Your Vacation Rental With Smart Locks

Offering a vacation rental to travelers is rewarding in itself. You provide the comforts of home to vacationers seeking privacy and convenience. Your property also allows large groups and families to travel together without being split up into separate hotel rooms. One of the challenges, however, is keeping your rental home safe with a revolving door of inhabitants.

The Benefits of Smart Locks

A smart lock to a vacation rental is equivalent to a key card at a hotel. They both offer flexibility, added security, and automation, leaving less work for the owners. Imagine if you had to physically let every guest in at the beginning of their stay every single time - not ideal. Smart locks take that hassle away from you as the owner, giving you more time to focus on other important tasks. Below is a list of great benefits you can reap by installing smart locks in your vacation rental property:

  • Saving time and money. Smart locks allow you to keep the check-in and check-out process super simple as you will no longer need to communicate with your guests about a good time to exchange a key.
  • No more lost keys. With smart locks, no key is involved; therefore, you will never have to worry about getting an “I’m locked out!” call at 1 a.m.
  • Remote monitoring and accessibility. Anywhere there is a wi-fi connection, you can control your smart lock. Many smart locks also come with the ability to see when someone is entering or exiting the property. This way, if you get notified someone has entered your vacation home when no one should be there, you will be able to respond accordingly. 
  • Added sense of security. Gone are the days when you worried about someone swiping the spare key from under the doormat or possibly making a copy to try to come back at a later date. No one will be able to enter your property without the specific code you provide. Some smart locks even allow you to lock or unlock your door from miles away. 

 

Which Smart Lock Is Best for You?

Deciding which smart lock is best for you is determined by how you rent out your property. If you work directly with renters, then the choice is yours. If you use Airbnb, Vrbo (owned by HomeAway), Guesty, or FlipKey, certain smart locks are preferred. Features most rental property owners look for include: 
  • Convenience
  • Flexibility
  • Security
  • Ease of use

Additionally, being able to remotely access your lock system from anywhere in the world either through wi-fi, bluetooth, or z-wave and zigbee, will make a huge difference for you. Most importantly, you always want to make sure whichever lock you decide to install has features that allow you to continuously change the code when needed. As a rental owner, you know the importance of making sure your property is always safe and secure.
