In various settings such as offices, gyms, educational institutions, and healthcare facilities, there's a growing need to secure personal belongings without the hassle of managing physical keys.
The introduction of keyless digital locker systems like the SMARTair I-locker addresses these challenges by offering digital access to lockers, thereby reducing the risk of theft and streamlining management processes.
Access Control System
The wireless digital locker system enhances user experience by providing security without necessitating alterations to existing furniture.
This solution minimizes the need for mechanical keys, mitigating the inconvenience and expense related to lost or stolen keys. Designed for flexibility and efficiency, the SMARTair I-locker offers a modern approach to locker access management that can stand alone or integrate into a comprehensive SMARTair access control framework.
Cost-effective and Convenient
The i-locker system brings smart technology to personal storage with hassle-free locking
The i-locker system brings smart technology to personal storage with hassle-free locking and unlocking facilitated via a smartphone app. This feature not only grants peace of mind to users but also saves time for facility managers, who no longer need to oversee key management.
The i-locker is designed for easy installation, requiring no complex cabling, thanks to its battery-powered function which ensures energy-efficient operation without costly electrical upkeep. Furthermore, the i-locker allows for real-time remote control to integrate with broader digital access solutions as needed.
Enhanced Management Options
The i-locker is equipped with two operational modes: Free Mode and Assigned Mode. In Free Mode, users can easily identify available lockers and secure them using their smartphone, RFID smartcard, tag, or bracelet, with LED indicators providing instant feedback.
The Openow app displays locker numbers to facilitate ease of access after use. Assigned Mode allows users to have a designated locker, enhancing traditional locker management models. The i-locker supports diverse applications with two shaft lengths adaptable to locker widths, and its connection to a SMARTair Hub links up to 60 lockers through easy-to-use admin software.
Applications Across Multiple Sectors
Applications for the SMARTair i-locker extend across various sectors, as highlighted by Mikel Gaztañaga, SMARTair Sales Manager at ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions. "A school, university, or hospital can deploy i-lockers in staff rooms, or to secure medicine trolleys and drug cabinets," he states.
"In offices or co-working spaces, the i-locker is a perfect fit for cupboards with sensitive or valuable contents, as well as document drawers, for example. Retail managers can deploy it on customer-facing display cases. As well as pool changing areas, additional applications include gyms and individual mailboxes in multi-residential apartment blocks."
The SMARTair i-locker provides a seamless, mobile, and wireless alternative to traditional mechanical locker management, with capabilities for quick installation, remote management, and easy scalability.
In busy offices, gyms, schools, hospitals, or co-working spaces, nobody wants to leave their belongings lying around, risking loss or theft. It often makes sense to provide space users with secure locker access. However, managing physical locker keys eats up staff time. Coin-operated lockers are inconvenient in an increasingly cashless world. The solution: digital access for lockers.
A digital lock designed specifically for lockers and cabinets solves the most important challenges facing any security team which manages lockers – whether independently, in a changing or post room for example, or as part of their SMARTair access control system.
Access control system
A wireless digital locker system enhances the customer or visitor experience by reducing the risk of theft without requiring changes to (or replacement of) existing furniture. At the same time, it eliminates the need for mechanical keys, cutting the hassle and cost of replacing those lost or stolen. The right solution creates a flexible, efficient way to manage locker access almost anywhere.
The new SMARTair® i-locker was created to meet these needs, offering wireless, mobile-enabled, real-time locker management as a smart, standalone solution for modern storage or connected with a SMARTair wireless digital access management system.
Expensive electrical maintenance
The i-locker brings intelligent, flexible control to personal storage, including convenient locking/unlocking via smartphone app. Site users enjoy peace of mind when their belongings are secure and out of sight. Facilities managers save the time previously wasted managing and replacing keys.
Each i-locker is quick to fit without cables, wires, or damage. Devices are engineered by a global leader in access technologies for reliability, attack resistance, and regulatory compliance. Battery power ensures energy-efficient operation without the need for expensive electrical maintenance. With the option of real-time, remote control if required, i-locker helps facilities managers run a suite of keyless lockers, or to integrate lockers and cupboards with a growing digital access solution.
Streamline locker management
The i-locker offers two convenient operating modes. In Free Mode, users identify unoccupied lockers at a glance and lock the device with a tap of their smartphone, RFID smartcard, tag, or bracelet. LEDs give rapid feedback and provide peace of mind that belongings are safely stored inside. With smartphone operation enabled, the Openow® app displays their locker number for easy collection after use. In Assigned Mode, the user is allocated a specific locker.
Two shaft lengths depending on the locker width and different cams ensures i-locker ccovers a range of applications to streamline locker management – in a pool changing area, for example – without the need for complex infrastructure. A single, wall-mounted SMARTair Hub connects up to 60 lockers with intuitive admin software. The i-locker can just as easily integrate with a digital access system to provide security and facilities managers with a more holistic site overview. When an organization installs more lockers, adding them to the system is simple.
Multi-residential apartment blocks
“A school, university or hospital can deploy i-lockers in staff rooms, or to secure medicine trolleys and drug cabinets,” says Mikel Gaztañaga, SMARTair Sales Manager at ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions. “In offices or co-working spaces, the i-locker is a perfect fit for cupboards with sensitive or valuable contents, as well as document drawers, for example. Retail managers can deploy it on customer-facing display cases. As well as pool changing, additional applications include gyms and individual mailboxes in multi-residential apartment blocks.”
