How to set and send door codes without a Door Lock integration

If your hotel does not use a door lock integration, you can still provide guests with door codes for accessing their rooms. These codes can be sent manually or automatically as part of the booking confirmation process.

Important: This feature only works if there are no door lock integrations connected in Property > Integrations.

    This field supports numbers, letters, and the following dynamic placeholders:

    • {checkin_year} – year of check-in
    • {checkin_month} – month of check-in
    • {room_number:numeric} – numeric room number only (e.g., 990)

    Once saved, every new reservation for that room or room type will automatically include the configured door code in the booking confirmation email.
