A new Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites in Halifax, Nova Scotia, chose to a contactless lock system for its guest rooms. The hotel placed the ILCO 790 contactless lock on its 119 guest rooms, along with its business center, pool, and other common areas.
Additionally, the hotel uses ILCO’s stand-alone next generation front desk unit. It encodes key cards, tracks system and access control data, programs locks and manages and audits locks.
The ILCO systems have offered a number of benefits for the hotel management. The ease of use for guests is an improvement over key cards, which require specific alignments with the lock mechanism. Management can also audit locks easily, tracking employee movement with the hotel. ![[end]](/resources/bullet/archive-4.gif)
