Sharing Access to Units with Facility Managers/Employees

How to set up your facility to allow tenants to share access to their units with facility managers and employees.

There are several reasons why tenants might want to share access to their units with storage facility employees. Some tenants receive package deliveries to the storage facility that need to be placed in their unit by the storage facility employees. Or they might need to share access to their units for maintenance purposes.

To do this, you must turn on the Allow Manager Shares setting for the facility. In addition, you'll need to assign the Open Manager Shares permission's user role levels for storage facility employee access. Finally, your tenants that want to allow employee access to their units will need to share access to employees from their Nokē Storage Smart Entry mobile app.

The Open Manager Shares permission allows the manager (and other non-tenant roles defined by the facility) access to units shared with management by tenants.

These are the default roles in the Web Portal:

  • Company Manager  Authority Level (Very High)
  • Facility Manager Authority Level (High)
  • Employee Authority Level (Medium)

This is a three step process:

  1. Allow Manager Shares for the facility.
  2. Define the Open Manager Shares permission's user role access for employees.
