What does my-bookings connect with TAURUS ZERO?
TAURUS ZERO is the keyless access system from Vienna-based TAURUS Sicherheitstechnik. Its four components comprise the ZERO smart handle for room and apartment doors, a wall-mounted ZERO keypad for entrances, lifts or side doors, and two electronic cylinders that replace mechanical cylinders. Rooms and apartments are mapped to doors through Loxhub. Shared entrances are included in the access plan.
From booking to arrival
When a reservation arrives, the integration automatically generates an access code for the stay. Loxhub receives booking details from my-bookings and passes the code to the ZERO components. Guests receive it through my-bookings message automation. You define the timing, template and conditions, for example after payment. Depending on equipment and setup, guests open doors using a code, smartphone, card or browser-based swipe-to-open link.
Validity, changes and shared entrances
Codes are valid from check-in to check-out and then expire automatically. Extensions, room moves and cancellations from my-bookings extend, transfer or remove access. Shared entrances, lifts and barriers are included in the access permissions. Staff and long-stay guests can use cards or tags. Up to 3,000 codes are stored locally, allowing code access during an internet outage. These workflows are checked before activation.
What do you need for the TAURUS ZERO connection?
You need a my-bookings account with message automation enabled, ZERO components on the required doors and a Loxhub account. Room, door and shared-entrance mappings are agreed together. TAURUS Sicherheitstechnik handles planning, installation and commissioning. A test booking, code delivery and actual door opening are checked before launch.
Existing doors and emergency access
The ZERO smart handle adjusts to common PZ dimensions of 72, 85 and 92 mm. Alternatively, only the cylinder may need replacing. TAURUS checks each door in advance. Depending on the component, mechanical emergency access is available or the existing cylinder remains in place. The range includes indoor and outdoor solutions; power supply, battery life and access methods are agreed for the installation.
Which properties benefit?
The system suits serviced apartments and aparthotels without a permanently staffed reception, holiday rentals across several locations, and hotels or guesthouses offering late arrivals or self check-in. A personal welcome remains possible. For questions about ZERO, contact Patrick Haage, Managing Director & CTO at TAURUS Sicherheitstechnik: haage@taurus-sicherheitstechnik.at.
