Understanding Account Freezes in the Nokē Smart Entry System
The Nokē Smart Entry system includes an important security feature that automatically locks user accounts after multiple failed login attempts. This measure is designed to protect accounts from unauthorized access attempts, ensuring your security.
Why Does an Account Get Frozen?
If a user attempts to log in to the system and enters incorrect login information five times in a row, their account will be automatically locked. This is a protective action to prevent potential hackers from gaining unauthorized access by repeatedly guessing passwords.

Contact a Facility Employee or Authorized User:
- If you are unable to access your account and it has been frozen, you will need assistance from someone with the appropriate permissions.
