Understanding Guest Access and Permissions

Guest access allows you to grant temporary or permanent entry to visitors, family members, or service providers. Permissions can be customized based on time, date, or specific user requirements. Proper setup ensures security while providing flexibility for your household or business needs.

Setting Up Guest Access

To set up guest access, follow these steps:

  • Open the Lockly app on your smartphone.
  • Navigate to the ‘Access’ tab in the main menu.
  • Select ‘Guest Access’ from the options.
  • Tap on ‘Add Guest’ to create a new access code or digital key.
  • Enter the guest’s details and specify access duration.
  • Choose the method of access: PIN code, fingerprint, or virtual key.
  • Save the settings to activate guest access.

The guest will receive instructions via email or message, depending on your setup, to access the lock during the designated time.

Configuring Permissions

Permissions allow you to control how and when guests can access your property. You can set restrictions based on:

  • Time of day

  • Go to the ‘Permissions’ section within the ‘Access’ menu.
  • Select the guest or access code you wish to modify.

Managing and Revoking Access

It’s important to regularly review and manage guest access. You can revoke or modify permissions at any time through the app:

  • Navigate to the ‘Access’ or ‘Guests’ section.
  • Select the guest or code to edit or remove.
  • Choose ‘Revoke’ or modify the existing permissions.
  • Confirm the changes to ensure access is updated.
