The educated choice for key management within universities

In recent years deister electronic UK Limited has been very successful in providing key management systems to many universities across the UK. We have now supplied over 80 key cabinets, managing over 5,000 keys.

The universities of Edinburgh, Winchester, Northumbria, Central Lancashire, Northampton, Hertfordshire, Birmingham, Sunderland and Newcastle are just some of the Universities that have benefited from the use of proxSafe key management solutions. The ability of facilities managers and security/safety managers, to handle the issue of keys in a controlled way is crucial to the day to day operation of any university. It is therefore essential to have a system which can trace the location of a key, and produce regular reports detailing who took what key when, and the time it was returned. We understand that each university is different, with its own unique requirements for key management. In most cases the action of taking and returning keys must be a simple and easy operation, as this will encourage staff to use the cabinets and embrace the technology.

“The design and operation of the cabinet is ideal for our needs and is easy for our staff to use on a day to day basis”, so Mary Edwards, University of Winchester.
