Locked out of Room - Dead Battery

If your battery is going dead on your unit, it will give an audible beep different from when opening the door. Submit a maintenance request   to change the battery. Once the low battery notification occurs, the battery will usually last for another 2-4 weeks before completely exhausting the battery.

If you are without power (batteries dead), you should have a battery pack in the house. It plugs into the bottom of the doorknob to supply temporary power for entry. If you are unable to locate one in the house, submit a maintenance request   to change the battery.

Battery pack


Community Room Rental has updated some internal locks to the remote functioning Yale locks. These locks verbally say “low battery” when they are getting low. When this occurs, submit a maintenance request to change the battery.  When battery is low it will usually still function between 2-4 more weeks from the initial notification.


If your battery has already died, you can place a 9V battery at the bottom of the lock on the two nodes found. This will provide power to the lock to allow you to utilize it fully.


Also be aware that a low battery may prevent proper functioning of the codes, including your entry code. If you can not get into your unit because the code isn’t working, make sure the battery is fully powered with new batteries or a 9V as indicated above.
