If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think too much about how your hotel room keycard works. But if you want to be able to come and go as you please without having to ask the front desk every time, you’ll need to learn how to program the card.

To start, find the room number on the keycard. Double check that it’s correct before continuing. Next, head to the front desk and show the clerk your keycard. He or she will likely ask for your room number again, so make sure you have it memorized. Once you’ve been given the OK, head to your room and insert the keycard into the door handle.

3. Make sure to include your name, room number, and date of stay.
4. Bring the application and your key card to the front desk when you check in.
5. The front desk will ask you to show them both items and then they will start the process of programming your key card.
