Locked Out

Unlock from Anywhere

Locked out? With Blyx, that’s no problem.

Doors can be unlocked remotely — so even if a guest gets stuck outside after hours, staff can grant access from anywhere.

But it’s not just about fixing the problem — it’s about preventing it.
With Blyx, guests have more access options and smarter entry tools, meaning they’re far less likely to get locked out in the first place.

See how Blyx keeps everyone moving — and sleeping — better.


Unlock Any Door, From Anywhere


Unlock rooms without leaving yours.

There aren’t many accommodation facilities that haven’t had to deal with someone locking themselves out of their room. And of course, it always seems to happen right after everyone’s knocked off for the day.

For smaller facilities, it’s even trickier — they’re often not large enough to have night security. Which usually means the same person who’s worked all day is also the one getting that late-night “I’m locked out” call.

That’s where Blyx can help.

With Blyx, the lockout process can be handled remotely. A manager or staff member can unlock a Blyx door from anywhere — no getting up in the middle of the night, getting dressed, walking down to let someone in… and then trying to get back to sleep before the early alarm starts the next day off.

Of course, security is built in. The system includes verification layers to make sure the right person is being granted access. Once confirmed, the door can be remotely unlocked while the guest is standing outside — and it automatically returns to a locked state once they’re back inside.

The same process also makes after-hours check-ins simple. Guests arriving late can contact the facility, and access details can be sent straight to their phone via the Blyx App. From there, they can either unlock the door directly or be granted one-time access to enter their room and finish setting up full access once inside.

And while that’s convenient, Blyx can take it a step further.
Instead of waiting for a guest to call on arrival, access can be set up in advance. The Blyx App can receive reservation details before a guest even reaches the site, so their access is ready to go. When they arrive, the built-in map guides them straight to their room — no need to call, wait, or coordinate.

Because Blyx controls the lock — not the access devices — doors can be unlocked or access revoked instantly, without waiting on cards or keys to change hands.

Here’s how it works.
Each door has a small Blyx controller installed, connected directly to the electric striker. That controller stores the access data for that specific door — so when a valid code or credential is presented, the door unlocks instantly.

When a remote unlock is triggered, the system essentially “presents” that access code on behalf of the guest, allowing the door to open just as if the credential had been tapped or scanned in person.

Because each device controller is always connected to the main Blyx platform, access codes can be added, changed, or removed at any time. There’s no need to bring cards, fobs, or phones back to the office for programming — everything happens seamlessly through the system.

With Blyx, you stay in control, even when you’re off the clock.
