We confirm the chip before printing, and can send blank test samples to try on your own doors first.
About this product
This is the everyday guest key: a standard-size PVC card with an embedded RFID chip, printed on both sides with your artwork. It is the most economical way to put your brand in every guest's hand, and it works with the encoders you already have at the front desk.
Tell us the make and model of your door locks and we match the chip to them before anything is printed. Cards can be supplied blank-backed for promotions, numbered, or with a magnetic stripe for properties still running mixed systems.
Each card is CR80 size, 85.6 x 54 mm, in a 0.76 mm or 0.84 mm thickness. The chip is matched to your lock system: MIFARE Ultralight, Ultralight C, Mini, Classic 1K or Classic 4K at 13.56 MHz, or 125 kHz. We supply cards for Saflok, Onity, Kaba, Salto, MIWA and VingCard systems, and confirm the chip against your locks before printing.
Printing is full color CMYK on both sides, with Pantone matching available, in a gloss, matte or soft-touch finish. Add gold or silver hot-stamp foil, spot UV, a glitter or metallic finish, a hologram, a signature panel, a QR code or barcode, and printed, embossed or laser-engraved numbering. Cards are made from PVC, with recycled PVC and PET-G on request.
Orders start from a few hundred cards, and most properties order a year's supply at a time. Lead time is 4 to 8 weeks.
