The mechanism you see in the picture below was in our hotel room at the W Las Vegas. Located next to the door, its two functions are self-explanatory. Pressing Do Not Disturb turns a light on the outside of the door red and pressing Housekeeping lets the staff know you want your room serviced by turning the light green. Housekeeping would turn that off and the light would turn white, letting you know from the outside that your room is ready.
From the information at the link below, this device is networked to a system that keeps management and staff informed on the workings of the hotel. It sure beats hanging those plastic door placards and hoping they don't fall off.
