More options for connecting a smart lock

Smartlock integrationSmartlock integration

All Hosts with listings in the US and Canada can now connect compatible smart locks to those listings.

Since rolling out this feature in March, we’ve added locks from August and Yale to the initial lineup of compatible models from Schlage. We’ve also expanded its availability to Hosts with more than six listings.


When you connect a smart lock, guests automatically receive a unique code that’s only active during their stay. You don’t have to change the code yourself between bookings.

Connecting a lock to your listing also lets you:

  • Receive an in-app notification when guests arrive.
  • View guests’ door codes.
  • Change how long a code is active by adjusting a guest’s check-in or checkout time.
  • Keep separate codes for yourself, Co-Hosts, and cleaners.
  • Get notified of any issues that might affect guests, like interruptions to the lock’s wifi connection.

You’ll find a list of compatible locks on the Resource Center, along with tips for connecting one to your listing.

Great feature, I am sure the re3st of the world would like to have this too, so what is the rollout plan please? I live in the UK.

@Airbnb do you know if there is a plan to include Kwikset Smart Locks in the future?
