Today, technology is becoming more integrated, and future room technology will allow hotel guests to enter the room without having to check in at the front desk. With the popularity of mobile devices and the innovation of RFID (radio frequency identification) and NFC (near-range wireless communication technology), hotel room door lock systems will be more mobile and automated.
Nowadays, the cost of RFID (radio frequency identification) technology is gradually decreasing, and it has become increasingly mainstream; hotels have become less and less consider installing magnetic card access control systems, and hotel people seem to have reached a consensus: The magnetic card access control system is outdated, and RFID (radio frequency identification) technology is the trend of the times.
RFID (radio frequency identification) technology not only enhances the guest experience, but also monitors the hotel's internal activities. The RFID Hotel Access System simplifies the room key management process by automatically assigning and terminating room access. The cloud-based solution sends the room code to the guest before they check in, which means they don’t have to check in at the front desk. Enter the hotel room with the code. After a long day of travel, the last thing you want to see is a long queue to check in, so the hotel smart room lock means a more enjoyable stay for the guests.
Using wireless RF communication technology, hotel room managers no longer have to go to the room to reprogram each room door lock; the system can communicate with each hotel room in real time, which increases hotel security. In the event of a lost or stolen house card, the hotel manager can immediately disable the card to prevent illegal people from entering the hotel room.
In this regard, Matt Hohenstreet, marketing director of Hilton Concord, also said: The original magnetic card lock is really outdated, and it is difficult to find similar replacement parts. In addition, RFID (radio frequency identification) technology can save 60 to 90 minutes of manpower every day, hotel staff no longer need to go to the hotel room door to help customers open the door because of the failure of the room card. With RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, workers can open the door with remote operation on the system.
“The advantage of another RFID (radio frequency identification) room key is that even if the key is placed close to the phone, the RFID (radio frequency identification) room key will not be invalid, and radio frequency identification is a more stable technology,” Douglas C. Rice, CEO and Executive Vice President of the First Generation Hotel Technology Association, spoke.
In addition, RFID (radio frequency identification) smart door lock technology can record all the activities related to the door lock, such as: whether the door is manually opened or forced open, door opening time, local or system failure, etc. The magnetic card door lock is not available.
Today, technology is becoming more integrated, and future room technology will allow hotel guests to enter the room without having to check in at the front desk. With the popularity of mobile devices and the innovation of RFID (radio frequency identification) and NFC (near-range wireless communication technology), hotel room door lock systems will be more mobile and automated. The room key is encoded by the mobile device hardware extension, either in the hotel lobby or on the airport bus to the hotel, where guests can activate the hotel room key using a mobile device.
