Mumbai, April 28: Godrej Enterprises Group (GEG), a pioneer and one of India’s most trusted brands in safety and security solutions today unveiled India’s first web-enabled connected hospitality lock solution at Smart Home Expo 2026, to be held from 28th to 30th April at Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai.
Designed for hotels, serviced apartments, premium rentals and managed living spaces, the progressive new solution addresses one of hospitality’s biggest operational challenges, friction and longer waiting times during guest Check-ins and Check-outs. Else, the Hotels have to deploy more staff which comes at a higher cost. By enabling guests to securely access and operate room locks directly through a mobile browser via a simple web link, Godrej is redefining how hospitality businesses can deliver seamless, secure and contactless arrival experiences. The icing on the cake is that all this come with a reduction in operating costs.
As the hospitality segment evolves around speed, convenience and elevated guest experiences, access systems are emerging as a critical touchpoint in the overall stay journey. From longer waiting times during check-ins to lost keycards or even disabled key cards, to app fatigue and operational bottlenecks, hotels are facing growing pressure to eliminate friction, while maintaining high standards of security and service. Addressing these changing needs, Godrej is strengthening it’s leadership in connected access with a progressive hospitality offering, designed to make guest entry seamless, secure and intuitive.
Mr. Pushkar Gokhale, Business Head, Security Solutions Business, Godrej Enterprises Group, said,
“Hospitality is being shaped by two parallel priorities, delivering superior guest experiences while driving secure access and operational efficiency at scale. Guests increasingly expect convenience, speed and seamless check-in procedures right from the moment they arrive. On the other side, Hotel chain operators need dependable systems that are secure, efficient and easy to integrate across properties. We have identified a clear gap where app-based access could create issues, particularly for short-stay and frequent travellers. Our web-enabled connected lock solution enables Guests to head straight to their allotted room without even going to a reception counter. Likewise, the guest can even check-out in a similar manner subject to the systems and processes laid down by the respective Hotel chains. We believe that this solution can elevate the guests’ experience and at the same time help the hotels to reduce their operating costs. The future of hospitality access will be driven by such seamless, intelligent, yet cost effective solutions, centred entirely around user experience”
