Inventory Lockers have been designed as a time and cost-saving solution as the locker tracks and records every item, limits access only to authorised users and provides detailed reporting for departmental cross-charging.
These lockers provide governance over business inventory, including IT peripherals, consumables and stationery. IT equipment such as replacement laptops or mobile devices can remain fully charged and ready for immediate use.
Similarly, stationary usage can be monitored and charged appropriately.

Asset Management Lockers give the business total control of expensive devices, tools, calibrated instruments and keys typically found in retail and warehouse environments.
They provide significant cost savings with an 80% reduction in device losses or damage over a 12 month period.
In addition, Asset Management Lockers also facilitate up to 68.5% reduction in time taken for staff to self-serve versus having to personally collect or hand over devices or keys.
As your people arrive to work they simply help themselves to the appropriate device required to complete their role, use it throughout their shift then simply return the device to the locker once their work has concluded.
Today, organisations need to be flexible and adaptable, managing remote and contactless access to mail and parcels like never before. Smart lockers seamlessly enhance your parcel management and logistics to enable agile hybrid working.
Mailroom Lockers are modular, scalable and customisable to enable mailrooms and receptions to deal with increasing volumes easily. They bring full automation to the handling process, saving time and providing end-to-end accountability, alleviating the responsibility to manage and secure potentially valuable packages.
When received, the recipient details are entered and an appropriate locker allocated, so the delivered item can be stored securely. From this point the entire process of communication is managed with email or text notifications until the delivered item is collected.

Drives efficiency for store staff
Drives footfall to store
For most retailers, contactless click and collect offers them a safe way to entice customers back into shops. Already a growing trend prior to the Covid-19 outbreak, these can help optimise store personnel’s time and provide valuable analytics on shopping patterns, dwell and pick-up times.
Retailers see the need to incorporate contactless self-service solutions into their businesses to stay competitive, streamline operations, increase footfall in stores, sell more and adapt to the new normal.
Smart Lockers enable employees to use a personal locker on a permanent or ad-hoc basis.
The locker can be booked in advance via a mobile device and accessed via a pin code or by the employee's security card. This means lockers are self-service and always available. The lockers, which can be designed to offer a variety of storage sizes, can then be used for the secure storage of personal belongings, documents and equipment.
For reception, lockers provide many benefits. From simple and effective storage for visitors personal belongings to a location to securely store and manage the delivery of parcels or deliveries for employees. Not only does the locker take care of the storage, it's smart technology also manages the contact, liaison and reminder notifications to the addressee.
