Hi forum,
The two management agencies that we are considering offer key management and changeover. In both cases though they do this through installation of a security box outside the property with a digital code they provide to the guests.
When I heard this my I initial concern was around security. People breaking in the box, knowing there are keys to the property in there. People using th code or giving the code to others. Forgetting to return the keys etc.
Anyone use this facility and if so, am I being paranoid on this one?
Thanks forum,
Dave
Key changeover - security boxes
I use a keysafe and have had no issues at all so far. I expect it depends on your area though - our village is very safe and several trustworthy workmen and my cleaner have access to the keysafe so they can go in and do work etc when I'm not there.
If you are in a high crime area however perhaps it's not such a good idea. I know of owners who hide the keysafe so it's not obvious there is one and that also seems to work OK.
