Are the locks in your hotel or tourist accommodation now obsolete? If so, you may now be faced with this dilemma: how to modernise your access system without embarking on a major renovation or leaving visible marks from your old locks.
Modernising the image of your accommodation centre is not always easy: often, changing a lock means having to replace the doors, making aesthetic adjustments or dealing with numerous technical complications.
Fortunately, we at Omnitec Systems have designed a solution to make this transformation possible without complications: the REFIT electronic lock. This model is designed specifically for updates, as it covers the holes of the old locks while adding all the advantages of the most advanced technology.
As you already know, security is essential in the hotel sector, to guarantee an unbeatable guest experience. Technology advances and customers expect modern, convenient and secure access systems, such as this type of lock.
In this article we tell you everything you need to know about REFIT, so you can be sure it’s the best option for your hotel.
REFIT, technology and design for a complete transformation
If you have decided to renovate your hotel amenities, there is one thing you should always remember: aesthetics and functionality go hand in hand.
Our REFIT electronic lock has been designed with this idea in mind. In addition to incorporating advanced technology, like the rest of our electronic locks, this product also gives you an unbeatable aesthetic result.
This is due to its metal escutcheons, which are just the right size to hide the holes and marks of previous locks, without having to use decorative plates. This way, you get a clean, professional finish that requires no modifications to the door.
In addition, its modern and minimalist design can fit in with any type of establishment. By choosing it, you are sure to add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your hotel rooms.
REFIT lock opening methods
Another advantage of the REFIT lock is the flexibility provided by its different opening options, which greatly simplify the daily work of your hotel staff while increasing guest convenience:
- MiFare proximity card: the most traditional, reliable and widely used method in the hotel sector.
- Mobile phone, via Bluetooth: Guests access their rooms using their own mobile phones, without relying on physical keys.
These options provide your guests with a more intuitive access system adapted to new technologies; improving their experience and the perception of your services.
Our electronic lock can also be managed online if you connect it to a gateway; an ideal feature to control guest access remotely and optimise the administration of your hotel.
Key advantages of the REFIT electronic lock
If you are looking for an advanced access control system that adapts to your needs without complications, this is REFIT.
1. No major renovation work required and it leaves no visible marks
As we said at the beginning, the REFIT lock has been designed with an escutcheon that fits perfectly over the marks and holes of the old locks without having to add any extra trim.
2. Flexible, secure opening
This opening type provides flexibility, convenience and security for guests. They can access their rooms using either a traditional proximity card or their mobile phone, via the Bluetooth connection.
In addition, our lock has visual and acoustic indicators so that people with a disability can use it easily.
3. Remote control and real-time logging
Remote management is possible if a gateway is installed. This will bring you all the benefits this entails: access for your guests can be managed in real time from Reception, any other part of the hotel or, in fact, anywhere. It can also provide a record of all entries and exits whenever you need it from wherever you are.
4. Enhanced privacy and security
Did you know that our REFIT lock incorporates an electromechanical privacy system? It has a visual indicator on the outside, which prevents all types of unwanted entry while the room is occupied; guaranteeing security for your guests.
5. Strong and durable
The lock is made of AISI 304 and 316 stainless steel, which is capable of withstanding extreme environments and adverse weather conditions.
6. Smart, integrated solution
Our REFIT electronic lock is managed with the UpKey access control application, which is useful for both hotel managers and staff, as well as guests, due to its many features!
For example, guests can enter their room easily using their mobile: the hotel emails a link to them and, with just a click, they can open their room door from their mobile browser. It's that easy!
REFIT and the EXO safe, a winning combination
If we say that the REFIT electronic lock is a complete security system for your hotel, that is due to its perfect integration with other Omnitec solutions, such as the EXO safe.
By installing a gateway, you can manage both devices remotely and further improve the security of your hotel. Sounds good, right?
This combination gives you complete control over the rooms; making it easier for staff to operate, while exceeding your guests’ expectations at the same time.
