Hafele Partners Interel for Bluetooth Door Lock and Guest Room Control Solution

Hafele’s Dialock electronic locking system has been integrated with Interel’s guest room management solution.

Utilizing Interel’s connectBsmart Bluetooth Low Energy IoT infrastructure, which is part of every Interel Guest Room and Energy Management solution, the Hafele Dialock door lock is able to exchange information with the Dialock server in complete end to end security, tunnelling data from the lock to the server.

This permits hotel operators to reap all benefits of an online door lock system, such as remote battery monitoring and room change functions, while building on the lock’s built in Bluetooth capability, which is already in use for Smartphone Key in many properties.

The two systems are also able to exchange relevant information about the interaction on either system with each other. For example, the Hafele Dialock lock reports opening or closing events of the door to the Interel Guest Room Management solution, helping to determine if a guest is present in the room or not and accordingly engage energy saving modes, such as reducing the heating or cooling and turning off unneeded lights.

Another example is the ability to provide a temporary conditional access for certain hotel staff roles, depending on the Do Not Disturb status on the room management system, thereby ensuring true privacy even without the use of the manual deadbolt.

Sibylle Thierer, CEO of Hafele GmbH & Co KG, said, “The secure connection of the Interel guestroom control system means that Hafele is once again extending not just the functional scope of its Dialock electronic access control system, but is already reliably creating interfaces that are becoming increasingly important in the digitalised hotel business. It is not just the simple presence of functioning components that creates satisfied customers, but perfect interaction during continuous operation on site. As a complete solution provider for the hotel industry, Hafele is providing both budget reliability and functional reliability, which are a huge benefit to investors, planners and operators and for the good of the guest.”
