1. Offline PIN Usecase

The Offline PIN Set-up is used for properties with static PIN codes which aren't changed after every reservation (e.g. PIN changes every week). This method is oftentimes used for key lockers with physical keys.


2. Requirements & Set-up

After the Set-Up of all units in your PMS, the specific Door Access Set-up within your Operations Platform of LIKE MAGIC is needed. For that you need to know all PIN Codes and Door Names.

Proceed in the Door Access menu and edit the listed locks and bring them into an active state by configuring the units as follows:

  • ensure the State button is active
  • enter the Lock Name
  • (re)generate or enter a PIN Code with a click on the circle-arrow-icon
  • Map the correct unit, to connect the PIN Code with the unit from your PMS
  • Make sure you save your configurations


3. Language

Please note: The Offline PIN Set-up is only available in one language.
We recommend therefore to not use too much text and only the PIN Code in this field.
Add other door specific information in Prismic by using the Door help modal which you can find in the Property Specific - "Doors" section. Use "Door help modal title" and "Door help modal content" to provide the information you wish with a click on "Need help?"
Alternatively, the Key Page can be also giving valuable information through the subtitle which can be adapted by a Subtitle-Label found in Prismic Common - Titles&Subtitles section: "Subtitle for key page"


4. Conclusion

The Offline PIN Set-up is a simple and reliable solution for static codes, ideal for key lockers. Ensure each lock is correctly configured in the Operations Platform and mapped to your PMS. For guest communication, use only the PIN in the field and provide extra details in every language via the Door help modal or Key Page subtitles.
