Business owner, Jamie Heffernan from Maldon Getaways, manages multiple Miners Cottages and B&B’s throughout the Maldon area, which is located in the Goldfields Region of Victoria.
His problem with his B&B’s were,
- Keys locked inside cottage.
- Keys being lost.
- Key safe being broken into.
- Cost of key replacement.
- Issues with check in and check out times
- After hours call outs
The solution to his brief was simple, keyless entry.
We have installed Yale Assure Digital Deadlocks Locks (with key, just in case!). This brief provided a perfect opportunity to install accompanying Vera Edge controllers which enable Jamie to remotely program pin codes from anywhere that he has internet access. He also uses this system to monitor arrivals and departures of guests. The allows for a more efficient process of getting accommodation cleaned between guests, as he gets real time notification that the guests have departed. For check in, it allows him to greet guests on arrival to show them around the cottages and their functionality.
Last but not least, it stops the 2am call out from guests who ring with “I can’t find the keys!”
Jamie is also considering what future improvements the Vera Edge controller can provide to his business in a security capacity.
