A Guest-Code Lock Is Only Useful If Removing Codes Is Easy
If several people need occasional access, compare credential management before comparing finishes. Adding a visitor should be straightforward; removing that access should be just as clear.
Match the turnover pattern
A family guest, a weekly cleaner and a tenant change are different routines. List which permissions need schedules and which should remain active until you deliberately remove them.
See the administration screen
Ask for a walkthrough of creating, editing and revoking one credential on the proposed model. Check whether your required remote actions depend on a bridge or internet connection.
Keep household access separate
Use individually identifiable permissions instead of one shared household code. A simple handover record makes it easier to know which access to remove without disrupting everyone else.
