LocknCharge Cloud-Based Smart Lockers Make Life Easier
LocknCharge smart lockers allow organisations to reach their goals by saving a considerable amount of time managing mobile devices. Our charging towers are designed and developed with extreme consideration for the end user, solving pain points specific to your needs.
Works Seamlessly in Many Mobile Device Environments
Save time and resources by facilitating your workflow with zero human interaction.
Check In/Out
Employees, students or guests (such as substitute teachers) can easily check out devices as needed. Designate who can access the Tower in advance or on the fly. Towers can track who has taken a specific device and when it has been returned.
Break/Fix
Reduce device downtime by streamlining your break/fix workflow. Employees and students can easily drop a broken device in the FUYL Tower and retrieve a new device while their's is being fixed.
Shared Devices
Employees (such as shift workers or field crews) can easily share the same set of devices. Pre-set access to specific Towers or bays to limit who is able to access specific devices. Plus, track when a device has been taken and when it has been returned.
Loaner Devices
Any time loaner device is needed, simply grant that person access to a designated compartment, Tower or Tower Node. Track who took the device, when it was taken, and when it has been returned.
Public Charging
Placing a Tower in Public Mode makes it open and available for anyone who needs secure charging on demand. Examples include students, employees, customers, etc. who need a charge during the day, for environments where devices are prohibited, or even for students with housing insecurity.
Manage User Access to Towers with External Directory Integration
Integrate your organization's Active Directory, Google Workspace* or other LDAP-compatible directory with LocknCharge Cloud. Integration enables centralized and simplified Admin control of user access to FUYL Towers.
*Must be on a compatible Google Workspace plan.
Manage Multiple Towers from One Centralised, Web-Based Portal
Give designated Admins access to view and manage any number of Towers.
Charge Quickly and Store Safely so Devices Are Always Ready for Use.
All bays contain a power outlet and a 36W USB-C Power Delivery (PD) port so you can securely charge almost any device at the fastest rate possible: iPads, tablets, laptops, mobile phones, Chromebooks and more.
Integrate LocknCharge Cloud with External Systems
Take device management to the next level. Using Cloud API and webhooks, LocknCharge Cloud can be integrated into external and/or existing IT infrastructure.
Additional FUYL Tower Benefits
Built-In User Directory
For those who prefer not to take advantage of out external directory integration, LocknCharge Cloud also includes a built-in User Directory that allows Cloud Administrators to upload a user list or manually add users into the platform.
Multi-Level Security
All data stored in the Cloud is protected by industry-standard encryption certificates. LocknCharge Cloud remotely applies updates and security patches to Towers as they become available to better prepare against cyber attacks. Heavy-duty steel construction ensures devices are kept safe while inside the Tower, and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) protects your account from unauthorized access. Configuring an SSO provider allows admins to securely login to LocknCharge Cloud and other systems/websites with one set of credentials.
Bay Visibility
Each bay has an external LED indicator to know if a bay is available (green), reserved (white) or offline (no light). A window provides visibility inside each bay–or if privacy is preferred, window-blocking plates are also included.
RFID or PIN Code Access
Compartments can be opened via RFID or PIN code. The FUYL RFID reader can read many RFID standards on the market including HID and MiFare. For a full list of compatible RFID standards, click here.
Future Proof
Modular replacement parts allow hardware serviceability in the field. Software and firmware upgrades are available over-the-air via the LocknCharge Cloud with a subscription purchase.
Easy-to-Follow Tower Display
Administrative functions are available from the 4.3” Graphical Colour Tower Control Module and Keypad. The Tower’s user interface is simple to navigate for both admins and users.
Curfew Settings
LocknCharge Cloud allows admins to configure Tower settings to restrict access to the Tower or a Tower node.
Optional Network Kit
An optional Network Kit expands the data transfer capabilities through individual Ethernet connections to each compartment. The Network Kit enables installation of a network switch (not included), making it possible to re-image devices remotely.
Sleek Hardware Design
The FUYL Tower’s sleek, minimalist design adapts to any environment.
