What are the hotel door lock problems and how to solve?

• It may be that the lock strike of the hotel door lock is not installed correctly, causing the latch bolt to fail to pop out or the latch bolt to be inflexible and unable to pop out.
• The hotel door lock battery is insufficient. After opening the door, the battery is low, and it usually becomes open if it is not locked.

• Adjust the lock strike to the right position.
• Replace the hotel lock battery.

• The battery is dead or installed incorrectly;
• The lock body power cable is off;
• The door lock is not authorized;

• Check the battery and install new hotel lock batteries;
• Reconnect the cable between mainboard and hotel lock batteries pack;
• Reread the authorization card;

• When the buzzer beeps three times “di,” “di,” and “di,” and the motor does not sound, it is caused by the wrong setting of the room number card;
• When the buzzer emits a beep, and the motor does not sound, it is caused by the inconsistency between the hotel lock time and the computer time;
• The card has expired, or the hotel door lock time is wrong.
• The room number may be wrong.

• Reset the room number card for the hotel door lock, and then reset the management card and the new room number card;
• Reissue the time card on the computer, and then go to the door lock to reread the time card.

• The latch bolt of the lock mortise is damaged. That is, the guest card, floor card, building card are used to open the door, the indicator light does not light, the motor does not sound, and the door does not open with two beeps;

• Replace the lock mortise;

• The positioning point on the exterior door handle is not aligned with the positioning arrow on the lock mortise;
• The spindle of the handle is not put into the square hole of the door handle;
• There is no spring in the door handle square hole, and the spindle of the door handle retracts into the handle square hole;

• Align and fix two points;
• Reinstall the spindle of the hotel door lock handle;
• Reinstall the handle spring;

• The door leaf opening is skewed or too small, and the lock mortise is twisted after the panel is installed, causing the handle shaft not to move smoothly;
• The handle shaft hole is too small. When the handle is turned, the screw that fixes the handle on the panel will touch the door leaf;
• The panel installation is skewed, causing the handle square rod to always be under force;

• Correct the door opening;
• Enlarge the handle shaft hole;
• Adjust the position of the panel;

• The handle hole of the panel is too small, and the handle is obstructed and cannot return automatically;
• The position of the gusset plate on the door frame is not installed correctly, causing the diagonal tongue to be unable to extend or not to extend;
• The door opening is too small, or there are foreign objects on the sidewall, which hinder the movement of the inclined tongue assembly, resulting in the inclined tongue cannot be extended or incompletely extended (see the extension length for details);

• Expand the handle hole;
• Adjust the position of the buckle box cover (usually move inward to the center line of the wall);
• Expand the door opening or clean up foreign objects;

• Generally, the battery voltage is too low after a period of use.

• Replace the battery;

• The gap between the door frame and the door on the side of the lock is not adjusted correctly (the gap is too small, and the door is heavy when opening and closing the door)

• Adjust the gap between the bolt panel and the door frame patch to keep the gap within 3-5MM

• Is the battery installed in the door lock;
• The connection line is not in the excellent contactor is misconnected;
• Whether the sensing panel is damaged.

• Install new batteries, check the connection lines, and replace the induction panel when handling.

• This failure is usually that the iron bar between the front panel of the smart lock and the lock cylinder is not connected correctly, or the lock cylinder has been damaged.

• Open the smart lock panel and check.

What is Different About Hotel Door Lock System and What Makes Them so Unique?

Hotel door lock system has traditionally been selected during the construction phase of the hotel in Malaysia. The reason for this is that the doors need to be ordered and prepped for the particular hotel door locks well in advance of the opening of the hotel. Especially for new builds, many times the decision on which hotel door lock system and hotel lock are chosen is made by the owner/developer and design/construction team. Most of the time the operational personnel who typically use the system (such as front desk, housekeeping, engineering, security and IT) are only brought on board closer to the opening of the hotel. As such, the input from these departments is not factored into the overall hotel lock system selection process.
 
The other way that hotel door lock systems are usually installed is during a time of a refresh or room upgrade. Due to the cost of the hotel door lock system, it is usually incorporated as part of an overall renovation. Again, the design team usually has a heavy hand on the overall decision making, and in most cases aesthetics and cost usually win over functionality and proposed security. However, there is the potential for operational, security and IT input into the overall decision making if the ownership group involves the property itself in the project.
 
A major factor involved in the decision of which hotel door lock system to purchase is often influenced by how long the owner intends to keep the property. If they intend to sell the property in the next few years, they may opt to install a less expensive hotel lock system. If they intend to keep the hotel for the long term, they may be convinced to install a quality system that will last for a long time.


                
 
Besides, in the past, the primary concern was the interface to the PMS. However, Adel hotel door lock system can also be linked to energy management and room automation systems, among others. As such, their ability to integrate, and in some cases share networks, can be reasons for the selection of a particular system.
 
Hotel door locks should meet the fire rating code requirements. In most instances the doors need to be fire rated and the hotel door locks may impact the rating to the door. If the hotel locks contain plastic components, the question arises as to whether they are susceptible to melting as a result of the heat and will this affect the ability of a person to open the door and potentially escape a fire. While this has not appeared to have been an issue up until this point in time and most of the locks appear to be code compliant, it may be worthwhile looking into this issue if the hotel is contemplating the replacement of the system.
 
Most of the traditional hotel door lock systems were controlled by the engineering department. They serviced the hotel locks, replaced the batteries, and in some cases interrogated the hotel locks when required. They were able to do this as the hotel door locks were primarily stand-alone devices and had limited interaction with other systems. This has all changed. Today’s RFID networkable hotel door lock systems interact with most key operational departments and are primarily the responsibility of the IT departments. The result is that the system has become much more than just a locking system, and due to the fact that it typically resides on the hotel’s administrative data network, it means that the hotel door lock system needs to adhere to the same security protocols and requirements as the rest of the applications. For this reason, many hotel door lock manufacturers request that the security team, as well as the IT and engineering departments, be involved in the selection process. The question then arises as to whether the hotels are equipped to address the change in roles, given that many hotels no longer have dedicated IT staff onsite to assist with the support of the network and system.
