# maintenance - Maintenance mode

> Configure maintenance mode via the maintenance node: temporarily block the shop for customers and display a custom maintenance message in the frontend.

export const KonfigDeeplink = ({node}) => <>
    You can open this setting directly in the Admin Interface via the following link:{" "}
    <code>{`https://<shop-domain>/admin/config/${node}`}</code>{" "}
    (<a href="/en/admin-interface/konfigurations-deeplinks">Deeplink overview</a>)
  </>;

Maintenance mode controls whether the shop is temporarily blocked for customers — e.g. for major updates or deployments.\
If the mode is active, the shop cannot be accessed from the outside.\
In addition, a maintenance message can be stored that is shown in the frontend.
