MIWA ALVH

MIWA’s range of hotel card locks has been extended to include the new ALVH lock. This lock utilizes contact less smart card technology for ease of use for your properties guests and staff alike. When checking in guests are now given a Phillips “Mifare” card, this card only needs to be held near the lock to open the door.

Extremely Durable

As the system is based on contact less or proximity technology there is none of the usual wear and tear on either the front desk equipment or the locks themselves, this in turn increases the durability of the complete system.

High-Speed Interaction

The high communication speed, between the card and the lock, ensures user friendliness at all times. In fact the high read write speed of the Mifare technology has made it the leading choice in the transportation and hospitality industries throughout the world.

Guest Card Verification

On occasion, as with any hotel locking system, a guest will go to their room and the key will not open the lock. The ALVH however, does have an advantage over all other systems on the marker today as it comes with Guest Card Verification. When the guest arrives at the front desk the system can read their card and find out exactly why the lock did not open, this means that the problem can be resolved immediately, the first time, thus reducing the guests displeasure and frustration.

Lock Audit Trail

Each lock stores the last 200 transactions; this information can be retrieved, viewed and printed. Each staff and guest card used un the system has a unique ID so all cards can be tracked back to the time and date of use.

Staff Card Audit

Each time a staff card us used in a lock, not only does the lock record this transaction in its memory, it writes its own information and time of use back onto the staff card itself. Staff cards can hold up to the last 70 door openings; this information can be audited to show exactly where and when the card has been used.
