Need digital sliding door lock solutions for airbnb guests, any thoughts?
Hey guys I wanted to know what you solution is when your main door is a sliding deck door? We don't want to use a traditional lockbox with a key and are trying to find a digital solution where the key code changes that won't break the bank
Smart home device like Google smart lock. You can lock and unlock completely remotely.

Hey @Alfred Dimartini, there is only one that I know of right now - https://lockly.com/
Now, having said that, it appears that it's release is delayed. It was announced at CES 2021, but I haven't seen one yet for sale.
Now Yale makes one specifically for Andersen doors.
E-Lok has one, but I am not sure if it is a smart lock or not - https://www.e-lok.com/product-... I think it uses a proprietary hub or interface.
Frankly all of these solutions are expensive. $500 plus.

If you try any of the locks suggested, I would love to know what you think!
It’s not a door lock but a digital lockbox (I have condo restrictions on what I can use). It’s called igloo home. Pretty cool lock. Integrates with Airbnb and some other PMS. You can create random pins for each guest remotely.

I don’t have any need or desire but your quest was interesting so I spent a little time on Google…

Most of them are $300-$400 but there is a DIY option for about $100.
they all looked kinda cool especially for a business you can write them off.
