Rollock mobile app user instructions
In these instructions there are references to various user roles: In a housing co-op, the “owner” is the landlord or superintendent, and the “user” is the person living in the apartment or requiring access.
Logging in
To log into the Rollock mobile app you need a working internet connection and a registered user account.
- Lock user: Ask the lock’s owner for a user account and the access rights to a lock.
- E-key user: To use an e-key you need a Rollock Access -user account, which the user or the owner of the lock can create for you.
- Lock owner: you may create user accounts in the Rollock Access web service at https://key.rollock.fi. You will need the lock’s serial number and an activation key to create a user account.
After logging in a screen with a green ring is displayed, along with a lock description below. This is the lock where you have user or access rights. If you have several locks, a list icon will be displayed below, opening the list to all the locks you have access to.

- Check that the username is activated.
Case: Lock not showing up in app or the list of locks is empty
- If you have received an e-key: Click the left upper hand corner tab for “Settings” > “Keys”. Write the key code you have received via SMS into the white text field, click on “Add key”. After this you will see the activated key under the “Keys” screen.
- Lock user: Check that your device is connected into the internet and, if required, restart the app. If the list is still not showing the lock, you do not have the user rights to the lock. Ask the lock owner to grant you user rights.
