Locksmith service built around guest turnover
Short-term rentals have security needs that a normal home does not. A new set of guests arrives every few days, keys travel in and out of pockets and beach bags, and you are often managing the property from somewhere else. Here is how we help island hosts stay in control.
Keyless entry for smooth self check-in
Smart locks and keypad locks let guests get in with a code instead of a physical key, so there is no lockbox fumbling and no key left under a mat. You can give each booking its own code and stop worrying about who still has a key from three guests ago.
We install and set up keypad and smart deadbolts that suit a coastal rental, walk you through creating and clearing guest codes, and make sure there is a reliable mechanical backup so a dead battery never strands a guest.
Fresh access between every guest
If your property still uses physical keys, rekeying is the clean way to reset access between guests or after a key goes missing at the beach. Rekeying keeps your existing hardware and makes every old key stop working, so the keys you hand out are the only ones that open the door.
On keypad and smart locks, we help you set a routine for changing or expiring codes between stays so each guest only has access during their booking.
Lockboxes as a reliable backup
Even with keyless entry, a well placed, sturdy lockbox is a smart backup for cleaners, maintenance, and the occasional code mix-up. We help you choose and mount one that holds up to salt air and stays discreet.
Help when a guest is locked out
When a guest is locked out at 9pm and you are off island, you need a local who can respond. We are a mobile locksmith based right here on Tybee, so we head to the property, get your guest back inside without damaging the door, and keep their trip on track.
One organized system across multiple units
If you manage several cottages, condos, or a multi-unit building, we can set up keying that keeps your life simple: keyed-alike doors where it makes sense, master key arrangements so you carry one key while each guest door stays separate, and a clear plan for owner storage and shared spaces.
