Electronic lockers
Lockers, digitally controlled.
We develop electronic locker systems from a single source: control electronics, lock control, payment, app and management platform – and operate them if you wish. New systems as well as retrofits of existing mechanical lockers.
Services
Everything a digital locker needs.
Electronics & lock
Control electronics, sensors and actuators for lock control – developed, field-tested and brought to CE-compliant series production.
Connectivity & control
Every compartment reports status and events to the platform in real time. At SBB this amounts to more than 1.8 billion MQTT messages.
Payment & booking
Electronic payment instead of coins, booking and opening via web application or app.
Management platform
Sites, compartments, bookings and faults in one central view – with analytics for operations.
Integration
Interfaces to ERP, building access, lift control and the operator’s internal platforms.
Operations & support
Monitoring, updates and further development after go-live so the systems run reliably.
Retrofit
Modernise instead of replacing.
Many locker systems are mechanically sound but can only be used with coins. We analyse the existing mechanics, add electronics and lock control and connect the system to a modern platform. This is how we converted all SBB stations to electronic payment by the end of 2024.

From prototype to series.
Analysis
Understand existing mechanics, processes and systems; define sensors, actuators and interfaces.
Field prototypes
Test prototypes for weeks under real conditions – for keynexis we built 100 prototypes.
Series production
Electronics strategy for smooth series production, CE conformity and custom enclosures.
Go-live & operations
Staged rollout, training for everyone involved, followed by monitoring and support.

FAQ
Quick answers.
Yes. For SBB we converted existing coin-operated lockers to electronic payment and digital lock control instead of replacing them. Whether a retrofit pays off for your system is something we assess by analysing the existing mechanics.
Every compartment is controlled electronically and continuously reports its status to a central management platform. Customers operate the lockers via a web application or app; operators manage sites, bookings and faults centrally.
We connect the lockers to existing platforms such as ERP, booking and payment systems, building access or lift control. We define the interfaces together with you.
Yes. We develop control electronics, sensors and actuators and support series production including CE conformity. Before series production, prototypes are tested in the field under real conditions.
We can. We take care of monitoring, support, updates and further development so the systems run reliably.
