Introduction and how it works
EVVA AirKey is a cloud-based locking system for digital and secure access management in residential and commercial properties.
The solution is fully integrated into Allthings and works directly with the app's Booking feature: for example, when residents book a guest room or a communal space, they automatically receive a digital key for the booked period once the booking is confirmed – no physical key handover needed.
Information for residents
Access to linked bookable objects via EVVA AirKey

Booking and generation of the digital key
As soon as your booking is confirmed, a digital key is generated. This key allows access to the bookable object and the corresponding doors during the booked period.
Important: For the key to be sent, a mobile number must be provided with the booking (your own or another person's). Ideally, enter the number with the country code (e.g. +41 79 …). Swiss mobile numbers in the format 07x … are completed automatically. -
Sending the digital key
After the booking is confirmed, a registration code is sent via SMS to the specified phone number. The booking view in the app shows which number the SMS is sent to.
Please activate the code within 48 hours of receipt. -
Smartphone as a key (EVVA AirKey)
- Install the EVVA AirKey app on your smartphone.
- Open the link or code you received via SMS.
- The digital key will be stored in the EVVA AirKey app.
→ The digital key enables access to the booked object and the corresponding doors during the booked period.
If a booking is cancelled or declined, the associated access authorisation is removed automatically.

Setup and activation
- The solution is set up by the Allthings team.
- The connection with the booking feature enables the automatic creation and assignment of access authorisations. For each bookable object, it is defined which doors are released with the booking.
Management and control
- Door systems and access logic are managed via the EVVA AirKey platform.
- The Allthings app serves as the interface for booking and access distribution.
- In the event of a cancellation, a decline or an accepted cancellation request, the authorisation in AirKey is removed automatically.
Introduction to residents
