Keypad Self Check-in · 密码锁自助入住
basicHi, I'm at the front door but I can't find the keypad. Is it on the door itself or on the wall?
你好,我在大门口了,但找不到密码锁。它是在门上还是墙上?
💡 国外Airbnb大多数是自助入住,房东不会到场。密码锁(keypad)和钥匙盒(lockbox)是最常见的两种方式。
It's a smart lock right on the door handle. Just punch in the code 7721 and turn the handle.
是门把手上的智能锁。输入密码7721然后转动把手就行。
I entered the code but the door won't open. Should I press a button after entering the numbers?
我输入了密码但门打不开。输入数字之后需要按什么按钮吗?
💡 智能锁种类很多,有的需要按确认键,有的自动识别。遇到问题直接问房东最快。
After entering the code, press the checkmark button at the bottom. You should hear a click — then turn the handle.
输入密码之后,按底部的对勾按钮。你应该会听到一声咔嗒——然后转把手。
It worked! I'm inside now. Just to confirm — is the same code used to lock the door when I leave?
成功了!我进来了。确认一下——出门的时候也是用同一个密码锁门吗?
💡 有些智能锁出门时自动上锁,有些需要再输一次密码。提前确认可以避免被锁在外面。
Yes, same code. When you leave, just close the door firmly and it auto-locks after 30 seconds. No need to enter the code again.
对,同一个密码。出门时把门关紧就行,30秒后自动上锁。不需要再输密码。
Lockbox Key Retrieval · 钥匙盒取钥匙入住
intermediateHi, I found the lockbox by the gate but the combination isn't working. I'm turning the dials to 0-8-3-5 — am I doing it right?
你好,我在门口找到钥匙盒了,但密码不对。我把转盘转到0-8-3-5——我操作对吗?
💡 国外常见的lockbox有转盘式和按键式两种。转盘式需要对齐数字后拉开盖子,不像国内常见的电子密码锁。
The code is correct! Make sure you line up the numbers with the notch on the side, then slide the cover down — don't pull it.
密码没错!确保数字对准侧边的凹槽,然后把盖子往下滑——不是拉。
Got it open! There are two keys inside — a gold one and a silver one. Which one is for the front door?
打开了!里面有两把钥匙——一把金色的和一把银色的。哪把是开大门的?
💡 多把钥匙很常见:一把开大门,一把开单元门或邮箱。问清楚每把钥匙的用途可以避免混淆。
The gold one is for the front door. The silver one is for the building entrance downstairs — you'll need it to get into the lobby.
金色的是大门的。银色的是楼下公寓大门的——你进大厅需要用它。
One more thing — I noticed the deadbolt above the handle. Do I need a key for that too, or does it lock from inside only?
还有一个问题——我注意到门把手上面有个插销锁。那个也需要钥匙吗,还是只能从里面锁?
💡 Deadbolt(插销锁/死锁)在北美很常见,是除了门把手锁之外的第二道锁,安全性更高。
The deadbolt uses the same gold key. Turn it clockwise to lock, counterclockwise to unlock. Always lock it when you're inside for safety.
插销锁用同一把金色钥匙。顺时针转锁上,逆时针转解锁。在室内时记得锁上保安全。
