FEOCEY Smart Lock for Rental Properties: Keyless Access Without Door Modifications

Introduction

Rental property managers face a persistent challenge: how do you provide keyless access for tenants without modifying the existing door lock in a way that violates your lease agreement? FEOCEY solves this with an interior-mount solution that delivers smart lock functionality with zero door modification.

The Renter’s Dilemma

Why Landlords Restrict Door Modifications

Most standard leases include a clause requiring tenants to return the property in its original condition. Replacing a deadbolt requires drilling new holes, which means:

  • Security deposit deduction for repairs
  • Potential dispute over the extent of modifications
  • Time and cost to restore original hardware when moving out

The FEOCEY Interior Mount Solution

FEOCEY’s no-drilling interior mount solves this by attaching to the existing interior thumb turn – nothing is installed permanently on the door. When you move out:

  1. Remove the smart lock body from the mounting plate (takes 5 seconds)
  2. Loosen the adjustable clamp and remove it from the thumb turn (takes 10 seconds)
  3. Your door looks exactly as it did when you moved in

Features for Rental Property Managers

Per-Tenant Access Codes

Each tenant receives their own unique access code. When a tenant moves out, deactivate their code – no need to change locks or collect keys. The code deactivation takes 3 seconds in the FEOCEY Home App.

Time-Limited Codes

Generate codes that automatically expire at a specific date and time. For monthly tenants, set the code to expire on the last day of their lease. For short-term rentals, codes can be set to expire within hours of the check-out time.

Activity Monitoring

Know exactly when each tenant enters and exits the property. The access log shows date, time, and which code was used. This is invaluable for resolving disputes about move-in/move-out timing.
