Lockboxes banned in Europe. Here's your legal alternative.

Yes, completely legal. The ban targets lockboxes attached to public property (gates, railings, lamp posts). Our IoT device is installed inside your apartment and connects to your existing intercom - no public property use whatsoever.

Lockboxes store physical keys on public infrastructure. Our system has no physical keys and nothing attached to public property. Guests unlock the gate remotely through a secure link, and the device that makes it possible sits inside your apartment - never on the street.

Since the device is installed entirely inside your apartment and works with your existing intercom (which you already have permission to use), there's typically no building approval needed. You're just adding remote access to the intercom you already use.

Yes. Italy requires guest identity verification - which our system provides through digital check-in with ID document upload. While physical presence isn't required, you meet the security requirement through documented digital verification.

You should remove them immediately to avoid fines. You can keep lockboxes inside your apartment for apartment-level key storage, but building access should switch to remote unlocking. The transition takes less than an hour to set up.

Very fast. Order the Smartly Intercom, install it following our guide (about 15 minutes), connect it to Host Smartly (5 minutes), and you're operational. We provide full setup support and video tutorials.

Your intercom keeps working exactly as it does today - we only add remote access, we never replace existing access. You'll receive notifications if the device goes offline, and you can use traditional methods as backup.

No! The device works with your existing intercom - almost all standard intercom systems are compatible. Nothing is replaced, and nothing is attached to public property.
