Pennyhill Hotel & Spa

Customer:

Situated on more than 120 acres of scenic countryside views, Pennyhill Hotel & Spa is situated only 13 miles from the UK’s renowned Windsor castle and is just as refined. Recognized as the county of Surrey’s most luxurious retreat, the hotel and spa features 124 bedrooms, each designed with features and amenities that embody the definition of ultimate elegance.

Challenge:

While hotel leadership desired a door lock representing the latest advances in security technology, the property also sought out a solution that could seamlessly blend in with the location’s ultra-elegant design.  

Solution:

After experiencing reliability issues with a previously installed door lock solution, Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa opted to work with ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions to adopt an effective replacement following the impressive results experienced by one of the hotel’s sister properties. By selecting VingCard Signature RFID for each of its 124 guestrooms and back-of-house areas, the property notably gains advanced security capabilities that protect against the risk of unauthorized room access. This includes gaining full compatibility with the industry’s leading keycard encryption standards. VingCard Signature RFID also features a robust design that is tested to withstand multiple break-in attempts and is capable of ensuring product longevity against wear and tear.

In addition to gaining enhanced security capabilities, Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa also selected VingCard Signature RFID due to the lock’s sleek and attractive appearance, as well as its ability to seamlessly conform to any property’s unique interior décor. Situated within a building embodying elegance and refined style, Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa was further able to select from a wide range of VingCard door handle options in order to further bolster its sophisticated appearance.

With VingCard Signature RFID, Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa notably gains a flexible and scalable lock solution that can adapt to changes in property security needs or industry trends. For example, the solution is designed with instant Mobile Access compatibility. This allows hotels to activate digital key service capabilities once guest demand for the functionality arises, yet without the costly need to replace existing door lock hardware.
