Hotels & hospitality

Hotel locks, master key systems and access control

Hotels have more doors, more keys and more people coming and going than almost any other building. We upgrade guest room locks, design master key systems around your housekeeping and maintenance teams, and control access to staff areas, all worked room by room around your bookings.

Guest room doors

  • Guest room lock and cylinder replacement and upgrades
  • Deadlocks and privacy locking that still allow free exit from inside
  • Door guards and wide-angle viewers
  • Locks matched to fire doors, fitted to suit the door
  • Faulty or worn locks replaced across a floor or a whole building

Master key systems for hotels

A hotel master key system gives every guest room its own key, housekeeping keys for each floor or wing, maintenance keys for plant and service areas, and a grand master for management. On a restricted profile, keys can only be copied with your authorisation.

Back-of-house and staff areas

  • Paxton fob or keypad access on staff entrances, offices and stores
  • Code locks on linen rooms, kitchens, cellars and cleaning stores
  • Access control on car park and service gates
  • Cancel a lost staff fob in seconds instead of changing locks

Planned around occupancy

We survey every door, give an itemised quote and agree a programme with your duty manager. Work goes floor by floor or room by room, so rooms are only out of service while we are in them.

Questions we are often asked

Can you work while the hotel is open?

Yes. We programme the work around your occupancy and change locks room by room, so rooms are back in use the same day.

Can every guest room be on one master key system?

Yes. Each room keeps its own key, with housekeeping, maintenance and management keys at the levels you need.

Do you cover guest houses and smaller hotels?

Yes. We work with independent hotels, guest houses and serviced accommodation as well as larger hotels.
