Let Prospects Tour on Their Schedule — Without Handing Out Keys

We install and configure the access layer behind self-guided touring: smart locks and keypads with time-limited codes, entry logging and video, and vacant-unit sensors. Pair it with your touring or leasing software where the platform supports it.

Why it matters

More Showings, Less Staff Time, Tighter Control

Tours outside office hours

Early mornings, evenings, and weekends — without a leasing agent driving across town.

Codes that expire on their own

Each code works only for its tour window. No lockboxes, no copied keys.

Every entry on record

Door events, and video on supported devices, show who entered and when.

Capabilities

Time-boxed access codes

Smart locks and keypads accept one-time or scheduled codes for prospects, agents, vendors, and cleaners — each with its own start and end time.

  • One-time and scheduled codes
  • Separate codes for tours, vendors, and make-ready
  • Automatic expiration and auto-lock
  • Lockbox replacement for scattered homes

Verification and visibility at the door

A video doorbell or entry camera records arrivals, and door sensors report when the unit opens and closes. If a door is left unlocked after a tour, you’ll know.

  • Door open/close and left-unlocked alerts
  • Arrival video on supported devices
  • Lights and temperature ready on arrival
  • Vacant-mode settings resume after the tour

Works alongside your touring software

Scheduling, identity verification, and lead capture are handled by your touring or leasing platform. We confirm lock and platform compatibility before installation so codes flow where integrations exist.

  • Compatibility review before purchase
  • Integration where your platform supports it
  • Manual code workflow where it doesn’t
  • Staff training on exceptions and lockouts

What we provide — and what your leasing software provides

Powerhouse Guardians supplies, installs, and configures the access hardware, sensors, and access platform. Tour scheduling, identity verification, and prospect communication run in the touring or leasing software you choose.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do you provide the touring software or ID verification?

No. We provide and install the access hardware and configure the access platform. Scheduling, ID verification, and lead capture are handled by your touring or leasing software; we’ll confirm compatibility.

Is a self-guided tour secure?

Codes are time-limited, every entry is logged, entry video is available on supported devices, and doors can auto-lock. Vacant-unit leak and freeze sensors keep watching between tours.

Does this work in apartment communities?

Yes. Tours often need both building or gate access and a unit lock. We configure both so a prospect’s code works only on the doors and times you allow.

What about model units?

Model units can use the same scheduled access, with lighting and temperature set for showings and eco settings after hours.
