Species and finish
Walnut gives a deep, warm tone for classic interiors. Oak reads lighter and more contemporary. Bamboo is the fastest-renewing option and engraves with high contrast. Olive suits Mediterranean properties with its dramatic grain.
Every card receives a waterproof finish, so pool decks, spas and beach bags do not change how the card looks in month nine.
Branding
Laser engraving, gold or silver foil, embossed room numbers, UV colour printing and QR panels are applied in one production flow. Natural grain makes each card unique — we agree tone tolerance on the pre-production sample.
Compatibility and delivery
Wood does not block radio waves; the antenna is embedded inside the card and read range matches a plastic card. Cards ship pre-encoded and sequenced for your lock system.
Frequently asked questions
+Do wooden key cards work in slot readers?
Yes. Cards are produced thin enough for standard readers and tested separately for slot-type readers.
+How long do wooden key cards last?
With the waterproof finish they typically outlast a printed plastic card, because engraving cannot rub off the way ink can.
