Smart Locks in Coliving: Why Keyless Entry Changes Everything

No more lost keys, no more lockouts — smart locks give tenants freedom and owners complete control over access.

Traditional lock-and-key systems are one of the most frustrating aspects of rental property management. Keys get lost, duplicated without authorisation, or simply left inside. Smart locks eliminate these problems entirely.

How WeStay uses smart locks

Every WeStay room is fitted with a Bluetooth and PIN-enabled smart lock. Tenants receive a unique PIN on move-in day which can be changed at any time via the WeStay app. Temporary access codes can be issued for guests or maintenance workers — and revoked instantly.

Benefits for property owners

  • No more emergency locksmith calls
  • Full audit log of access events
  • Remote access for inspections or maintenance
  • Automatic lock on lease end

Smart locks are one of the highest-ROI upgrades an owner can make — and at WeStay, they come standard with every managed unit.
