Automated Padel and Tennis Courts: 24/7 Self-Service Sports Venues

“I believe the next generation won't even imagine a sports club having a front desk with staff,” says WebLock CEO Taavi Krusell. WebLock synchronizes online court bookings with exterior doors, turnstiles, and court floodlights.

The Rise of Unstaffed Racket Sports Facilities

Padel is the fastest growing sport globally. However, running a facility with reception personnel during early mornings, late nights, or weekends severely eats into operating margins while court lights left burning unnecessarily waste massive amounts of electricity.

Synchronizing Booking Engines with Physical Hardware

WebLock connects seamlessly with booking platforms like Playtomic, bookaball, Hopitude, and Booklux. When a booking is confirmed, the player's personal entry code is created with active validity starting 15 minutes before the match.

Automated Energy Management & Lighting Relays

In addition to unlocking perimeter doors and turnstiles, WebLock DLA controllers trigger high-powered lighting relays for the specific court reserved, cutting electricity consumption by up to 35% across clubs.

“Players book on Playtomic or Booklux, receive their entrance code instantly, and when they arrive, their court lights automatically turn on 5 minutes prior to match time and switch off after game completion.”
