How does the Tedee desktop portal work?

Manage multiple locks and users via a convenient desktop interface. Log in to your Tedee account on the internet browser to access more features and advanced options.

Imagine you’re responsible for access management at your company. You overlook two offices, each protected with multiple smart locks. All of these are used by hundreds of people every day.

How do you manage access to all of your company?

You can do it on a smartphone app. But would that be convenient?

What is a Tedee portal?

You may already know about the Tedee mobile app, where you can control and manage your smart locks on a smartphone. If not, learn all of its features here >>

Tedee desktop portal brings all of its features to online browsers – on your smartphone or desktop computer, without installing any apps.

This way of controlling Tedee smart locks, displayed on a wider screen, gives you a fuller overview and easier control over multiple locks, multiple organisations, and multiple users.

The desktop portal is a more intuitive way of managing more complex smart lock setups.

We often call it the business portal; however you don’t need to run a business to use it.

Its features may be especially helpful to office administrators, shift managers and other professionals. Anyone can enjoy the control on their desktop computer, too, though.

Remember: to control your smart locks in the Tedee portal, you must pair these with internet-connected Tedee smart bridges.

If your smart lock works with a Tedee keypad, you may manage all the access PINs from here, too.

PINs are separate entities from users. You can browse them by their names to change the codes and edit their access type.

If your device does not connect to a smart keypad, this feature screen does not display the device’s details.

Access the organisations view

Tedee brings the feature, which acts to group all of your devices between multiple organisations – for example, locations. If you manage access to both your office and home, you can group all your devices and users between the two. This option gives you a way to manage all devices and their users in bulk.

For example:

  • Manage all of your employees’ access on one screen
  • See the state of all your devices at the office
  • But control your home devices and family access in another dashboard.

What if I use only one smart lock?

Your home acts as one and the only organisation, with one device – or an additional smart bridge or keypad. In such a situation, the organisation’s view may only be an easier way to see all activities or manage access of all smart lock users at once. It would look like the one below.

What if I am not an owner or administrator of a smart lock?

All Tedee account users may use the Tedee portal but can access the details only of the smart locks they are administering or owning.

If the guest-role user has permission to unlock the smart lock remotely, they can do so via the Tedee portal.
