Self-Service Rental
Give users access to venues, courts and buildings – without manual key administration. Our solution combines proprietary software with physical installation of access control, so that booking, identification, access management and payment are handled automatically.
What is self-service rental?
Self-service rental is a complete package of software and physical installation that lets you make venues, courts, meeting rooms and buildings available for rent – without requiring manual follow-up. Users book a time slot, identify themselves securely via Vipps, and automatically receive access during the reserved period. When the time is up, the door locks again. The solution can also handle payment, so the entire process from reservation to payment is digital and traceable. For the property owner, this means fewer administrative tasks, better utilisation of the premises and full visibility into who has access – at all times.
Digital booking and reservation
Users reserve time via a website or app. The system shows available slots, handles conflicts and sends confirmation automatically.
Secure identification via Vipps
Everyone who books identifies themselves with Vipps. This gives you full traceability of who has had access to the venue – essential for security and accountability.
Automatic access control
The door unlocks automatically during the reserved period. The solution integrates with existing access control, new access control or cost-effective Yale Doorman smart locks.
Integrated payment
Payment can be handled directly in the booking flow – via Vipps, card or invoice. The property owner avoids manual invoicing and follow-up.
Control of lighting, heating and equipment
The solution can activate or deactivate lighting, heating and other control signals based on reservations – so the venue is ready when the user arrives and saves energy when empty.
Administration portal
Full overview of bookings, users, revenue and access logs in a simple web portal. Set up prices, opening hours and rules for different user groups.
Flexible access control integration
The solution adapts to your existing systems or is installed from scratch. We support multiple types of access control to find the best fit for your venue and budget.
Yale Doorman – cost-effective and simple
Yale Doorman is a smart door lock that mounts directly on an existing door. Perfect for smaller venues, saunas, meeting rooms and community halls. Low installation cost and easy to manage.
Existing access control
Already have an access control system? We integrate the booking solution with your existing system, so access is managed automatically without replacing anything.
New access control
For new installations or upgrades, we deliver complete access control systems with card readers, cylinders and central management – fully integrated with the booking platform.
Control of lighting and technical systems
We can connect the solution to lighting, heating, ventilation and other technical systems. The venue turns on when the booking starts and off when it ends – automatically and energy-efficiently.

Real-world examples
Fjordlina Saunas
Yale Doorman + Vipps identificationFjordlina Saunas wanted to make their saunas available to more users, extend opening hours and reduce manual work around booking and key handling. With a Yale Doorman on the front door and our booking platform, guests can now reserve a time, identify themselves via Vipps and receive automatic access – entirely without anyone needing to be present. The result is more bookings, longer opening hours and minimal administration.
Sports club with meeting and conference rooms
Access control + automatic invoicingA sports club made indoor meeting rooms and conference rooms available for both internal meetings and external events. Access and schedules are managed automatically through the platform, and any payment from external tenants is handled in the same solution. The board has full oversight without spending time on keys, duty rosters or manual invoicing.
