Keytracker Electronic Key Cabinets

State-of-the-art, UK-designed and built, world-leading key cabinets that send automated emails & reports as required, with over-the-air updates maintaining ultimate efficiency & longevity, at the lowest cost.

Options include:

A - Steel or polycarbonate door

    Static = numbered key positions with numbered key fobs (most popular) - best used with a clear door for fast information.

    Dynamic = no numbers on fobs or board, so all keys may be returned anywhere but must be searched for in the software or at the cabinet when required (often used when keys may travel between different cabinets)

D - Cabinet sizes:30, 50, 100 or 200 - all cabinets may be linked or part filled to accommodate any number of keys.

 E - coloured LEDs above every key position for fast identification of return or available key positions.

F - Fingerprint, card or PIN number

G - 10” touch screen or Steel keypad with 5” display 

H - independent desk fob reader(s) if required

FAQ - Electronic Solutions

Keytracker electronic key Systems are the most advanced electronic key cabinets that use a multitude of different technologies, such as RFID, Personal Identification numbers, access cards, Facial Recognition or Fingerprint Biometrics, web services & very powerful software - designed for operations looking to securely control bunches of keys in one secure solution, whilst using their information to improve efficiencies, produce reports and monitor progress of items controlled by keys, as well as their users.

Designed & Engineered in the United Kingdom, all Keytracker electronic systems feature easy to use stylish enclosures with inbuilt battery back up that can blend into your smart workspace.

With its own inbuilt website, every cabinet can be linked, monitored, adapted, programmed, alarmed, accessed and interrogated… remotely.

Robust RFID chips & technology are used to always keep track of the movement of keys. RFID system pegs are attached to all keys so that when the item passes through a reader or is inserted in to the electronic cabinet, the tag is scanned to a central database. The database stores the time & position as well as asset information such as the status and current user.

The powerful Keytracker web based software and cabinets are easy to use and effective, but also offer a flexible API for 3rd party software integration, meaning that you can integrate your existing services to make your audit and tracking workflows even more efficient.

Each key position may be locking or non-locking.

There are a few different sizes of cabinets, all of which may be linked or part filled to accommodate any number of keys - Cabinet sizes are 30, 50, 100, 200.

Readers are added to suit each customer’s requirements, so several cabinets may be linked with just 1 access point, via PIN, card, fingerprint or facial recognition.

All systems include RFID tags to identify each set of keys and web-based tracking software, with searchable reports by time period, user & key.

All key bunches are offset, with space for larger bunches.

Solid or clear doors are secure with 400nm burst-proof locks & manual key override.

Static System

Best used with a clear door cabinet, the static system has numbered key bunches that live in their matching numbered key positions- see at a glance which keys are in or out - if a key is returned to the wrong position the cabinet will tell you and the correct position will light up - often used by motor dealers & estates departments that also number their vehicles or properties 

Dynamic System

The dynamic setup allows keys to be returned to any available slot in any cabinet within your Keytracker network. Locating a key is supported by searching the software, app or at the cabinet, which illuminates the LED of the key’s slot and displays the slot number on screen once your required key is selected.
