03.12.2008: State-of-the-art LOCKSAFE locker systems for shopping centre in Texas, USA
In December 2008, two state-of-the-art LOCKSAFE IV locker systems were delivered to the United States and installed in a shopping centre in Laredo, Texas.
The customer set a high value on the corporate identity of the shopping centre as well as on the technical equipment of the paypoint. Thus the LOCKSAFE systems were lacquered in an appealing red colour, according to the shopping mall, and offer a special service to the customer who can pay by coins, bank notes and credit cards. In this case the credit card payment is done via an on-line connection.
- Shopping bags are safe in the LOCKSAFE locker
- Paypoint accepts coins, banknotes and credit cards
- Attractive design
27.10.2008: LOCKSAFE IV in International Convention Centre Capetown, South Africa
Based on the cooperation with our "new" partner Elocksys, in Autumn 2008 we already could deliver an electronic LOCKSAFE IV left-luggage locker system to South Africa which was installed in the International Convention Centre in Capetown.
Thereby the system offers a special service to the centre's visitors as via an integrated power supply in the small "XS"-lockers, electronic devices of all kind (e.g. laptop, mobile phones, iPods, etc.) can be recharged. Furthermore the large lockers are equipped with coat hooks. The customer gets a barcode-ticket with which he opens the locker again after he has paid the rental fee by South-African Rand coins or bank notes.
This state-of-the-art locker system is very well accepted by the visitors of the Capetown Convention Centre which is reflected by the additional receipts of the operator who in view of the 2010 Football Worldcup in South Africa is very optimistic to install further LOCKSAFE systems.
