Codelocks Smart Locks and the KitLock NetCode® enabled locks utilise technology that allows you to create date and time-sensitive temporary coded access: NetCode. A NetCode can be generated quickly and easily via the C3 Smart App1, the online Codelocks Connect Portal or by utilising the Codelocks Connect API. Once generated, a NetCode can be shared via email or SMS2, and will expire after their set duration - ideal for visiting service engineers, delivery personnel and short / medium-term locker rental.
NetCode works by using time and date based algorithms, synced between the lock and software upon initial programming. No WiFi is required - this helps our customers to issue a NetCode and manage access control wherever they are, even in the most remote locations.
Learn how NetCode could work for you by taking a look at some of our example scenarios using the drop downs below.
NetCode technology generates time and date sensitive codes for your guests. Whether you're a full-time 'super host' or occasionally rent out your property, it means you can focus on other aspects of the business, the Codelocks Smart Lock does the check-in for you.
