LinkLockers has announced what it says is ‘an exciting new partnership with eLocker – aimed at delivering cutting-edge smart locker solutions to its collective customer base’.
The partnership will see the storage manufacturer supply lockers integrated with eLocker's ‘state-of-the-art’ cloud-managed digital locks. Part of the Whittan Group, and with over 70 years’ experience supplying storage solutions across diverse sectors, LinkLockers customers have ‘long benefited from a legacy of reliable, innovative product solutions’. Alongside other trusted Whittan brands such as Probe, Link51, Apex, Polypal UK, and Storage Direct, LinkLockers' commitment to advancing its product range, particularly in an ever-evolving digital world, makes the partnership with eLocker the logical next step for the manufacturer. This collaboration will see the manufacturer and ‘smart tech’ provider supply storage lockers equipped with internet-connected lock technology. LinkLockers said: “With a range of staff, asset management and click-and-collect locker solutions available, customers gain greater flexibility in finding storage solutions tailored to their business needs.
“Designed with operational efficiency and enhanced convenience in mind, customers will also benefit from locking solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing RFID fobs and access cards, eliminating the need for multiple keys and authorisation passes, supporting the one-card policy so many corporations desire in the 21st century. Leveraging the power of eLocker’s technology platform, customers can take advantage of eLocker’s API and integrate it into their HR systems to deliver and manage digital locker solutions at scale, streamlining locker management and reducing administrative allocation duties.”
Two-factor authentication provides an extra layer of security for accessing and retrieving vital equipment from a locker. In addition to enhancing security, the system also records transactions, ‘providing customers with total transparency to facilitate better accountability and tracking of equipment usage’.
Link Lockers added: “Unlike smart locks currently available on the market, where locks are connected by wires, eLocker takes smart locking to a new level. Benefiting from a wireless, cloud-based platform, businesses will be provided with valuable data, offering insight into locker usage. Replacing timely administrative duties with an efficient, automated locker management system that adheres to ISO27001 standards and is GDPR-compliant, changes the game for customers seeking modern locker management.”
