How it works

Three steps. Zero effort.

01

Guest books

Your guest makes a booking through your listing on Airbnb, your own site, or any other channel. Latchley picks up the booking details and gets to work immediately.

02

Code generated automatically

Latchley generates a unique 6-digit PIN valid only for the booking window. Your guest receives it by email and SMS. No action needed from you.

03

Guest arrives, door opens

Your guest enters the PIN on the keypad. At checkout the code expires automatically. You never need to hand over a key.

Why Latchley

Built for hosts who want less to think about.

No key handoff

Eliminate the logistics of physical keys entirely. Every guest gets contactless PIN or NFC access, automatically provisioned for their exact booking window.

Time-limited codes

Each PIN is cryptographically unique and valid only during the exact booking window. It activates at check-in and expires at checkout, to the minute.

Remote management

Manage every property from a single dashboard. Revoke access, extend stays, monitor door activity, and push codes from anywhere, on any device.

Predictable pricing

Flat monthly pricing with no per-booking fees, ever. Whether you host one booking or a hundred, the price never changes. Choose only what you need.

Three ways to create codes

Send guests a secure invitation link to complete and approve, enter all details yourself for instant generation, or connect via the REST API so your booking platform creates codes automatically. All three deliver the same secure guest experience.

Enterprise-grade security

Every code is unique, time-limited, and locked to a single booking. Repeated failed attempts trigger an automatic lockout. Software updates are staged and never disrupt a live stay.

Pricing

Three products, built for different hosts.

Choose based on what you actually need. Each product solves a distinct problem — there is no right or wrong answer.

FAQ

Common questions.

We install a custom Latchley reader unit with NFC tap and PIN keypad, a Raspberry Pi bridge controller, and an electric strike lock. Where the existing door furniture isn't compatible, we replace the handle too. Everything is tested and handed over on installation day.

You do, from day one. The £1,299 installation fee covers all hardware, labour, cabling, and handover. There are no rental or leasing arrangements. The equipment is yours the moment it's fitted.

Latchley works with any booking platform. For direct integration, the Latchley REST API lets any third-party system, whether a holiday let platform, golf venue, or co-working space, generate access codes programmatically at the end of their own booking flow.

Yes. You can create codes via two flows. Flow A sends your guest a secure invitation link to complete, then you review and approve before the code is generated. Flow B lets you enter all details yourself for instant code generation with no waiting.

Your on-site Pi bridge stores valid codes locally and continues to grant access without an internet connection. Existing codes remain fully valid throughout any outage.

No. Latchley requires a physical installation so a free trial isn't feasible. Pricing is simple and transparent upfront, so you know exactly what you're committing to before we touch anything.

All updates follow a staged rollout: Beta on internal units first, then Early Access for opted-in hosts, then Stable for everyone else. Your system is never updated during an active guest booking, and you can defer any update for up to 30 days from your dashboard.
