System and method for randomly generating and associating unlock codes and lock identifiers

A method for randomly generating unlock codes for locks, the method comprising:

• securing a location with a lock, wherein the lock is not capable of electronic communication, and
• wherein a database coupled to a processor stores an association of the lock and a customer,
• the processor configured to:
• (i) randomly generate a plurality of unlock codes,
• (ii) randomly generate a plurality of identifiers,
• (iii) create an unlock code/identifier pair, wherein the unlock code/identifier pair is created by randomly selecting an unlock code from the plurality of unlock codes, and randomly selecting an identifier from the plurality of identifiers, and
• (iv) associate the unlock code/identifier pair with the lock in the database,
• wherein the processor is further configured to retrieve the unlock code associated with the lock from the database and transmit the unlock code to a mobile device associated with the customer.

A system for randomly generating unlock codes for locks, the system comprising:

• a lock not capable of electronic communication,
• a database configured to store an association of the lock and customer information, the database further configured to store a plurality of unlock code/identifier pairs,
• a processor communicatively coupled to the database, wherein the processor is configured to:
• (i) randomly generate a plurality of unlock codes,
• (ii) randomly generate a plurality of identifiers,
• (iii) create the plurality of unlock code/identifier pairs, wherein each unlock code/identifier pair is created by randomly selecting an unlock code from the plurality of unlock codes, and randomly selecting an identifier from the plurality of identifiers,
• (iv) select an unlock code/identifier pair from the plurality of unlock code/identifier pairs, and
• (v) associate the selected unlock code/identifier pair with the lock in the database;
• a mobile device communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the mobile device is configured to transmit customer account information to the processor;
• and
• a transceiver communicatively coupled to the processor,
• wherein the processor is further configured to retrieve the unlock code associated with the lock from the database upon receipt of the customer information, and
• wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit the unlock code to the mobile device.
