Common questions
What should I check before choosing between Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock, Lynx and PointCentral?
Start with the exact door and lock model. Check the keypad, bridge or hub needed for your chosen booking connection. Decide which system should create and remove guest codes. A compatible brand name alone does not confirm that the full setup will work.
How should I plan backup entry with Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock, Lynx and PointCentral?
Check how the exact model lets guests in if the main method fails. Test the guest steps before arrival and arrange local help. A code may work offline but still need an internet link for you to change or remove it.
Can I pause a Kwikset Halo Touchscreen guest code without deleting it?
Kwikset says its app can disable a code as well as delete it. It also lets you set date and time schedules. These are app controls; they do not establish that a booking service will change the code for you.
Which Lynx connection mode should I use with Airbnb?
Use Inbox Only if your property software already handles stays and codes. Access Management and Inbox can import Airbnb listings and stays and manage codes without that software. Access Code Only leaves out the inbox. Choose the mode that fits the system you want to control codes.
Can PointCentral give staff different access from guests?
Yes. PointCentral describes access by role and time. Its hardware options use codes, fobs, badges, cards or phones. Ask which methods work on your exact doors. The list does not mean each lock supports them all.
