While traveling, a hotel acts as a home away from home for guests. It’s a place they can relax and feel comfortable. It should also be a place where they can feel safe. Although most hotels have bolted locks and heavy self-shutting doors, there is one tiny thing that can cost a guest his or her privacy – the peephole.

 Peepholes in doors have been around almost as long as the door itself. As a security measure for those who didn’t want to open the door to strangers, the little hole in one’s door was made so the person inside could see, or more like take a peep, at whoever was knocking. With the knowledge of the visitor, the person could choose to answer or not.

Although it’s a good security measure, there is one big problem. If someone can look out through a peephole, someone else can look in. Once that happens, a person’s privacy is violated.  Case in point, popular sportscaster Erin Andrews experienced that just a few years ago.

Luckily for your hotel guests, Safemark has partnered with Privacy Logics to provide a tamperproof solution called SPEYEGUARD™ peephole covers.  While most peephole covers can get stuck or stay open, these covers automatically close on their own. They keep hotel doors secure, protect guests’ privacy, and reduce liability risk.

The peephole covers are easy to install and easy to operate. They can be retrofitted on existing doors or including with any new construction hotel.  Protect your guests from prying eyes and make sure those peepholes are covered!
