Simplifying student changeovers

When hundreds of students move in or out within days, managing access can become a major operational challenge.

TLJ helps streamline changeovers with credentials that can be prepared in advance, issued digitally and revoked when tenancies end, reducing manual administration and helping accommodation teams manage even the busiest arrival periods.

Building-wide solutions

Access across your accommodation

From bedrooms and main entrances to communal kitchens, study spaces and staff-only areas, access needs to work across your entire development.

TLJ brings together electronic locks, communal access control and management software, helping students move through authorised spaces while accommodation teams maintain control over access permissions.

Refurbishment solutions

Modern access, minimal disruption

TLJ's refurbishment solutions can modernise suitable existing doors with updated locking technology, helping minimise installation disruption while preserving the integrity of the property.

Mobile access solutions

Access that fits student life

Explore access credentials

For a generation that's grown up with smartphones, digital keys are a natural fit. Students are far less likely to forget their phone than a separate key card, making everyday access simpler and more convenient.

Apple Wallet keys take this further, offering a familiar experience without the need for a dedicated accommodation app. With Express Mode, students simply present their iPhone or Apple Watch to unlock their door.

That flexibility also extends to different accommodation models. For PBSA operators offering hybrid living or short-term stays, Apple Wallet keys can provide a convenient way to issue temporary access credentials to visitors, without requiring them to use the student resident app.
