How digital lockers contribute to a better student experience at schools and universities
Traditional lockers with padlocks are a thing of the past, and smart digital lockers are taking their place. These advanced lockers use the latest technologies such as RFID, biometric scans and integrations with school software. They are revolutionizing how students store and manage their personal and academic belongings. Here are some examples of how digital lockers contribute to a better experience for the student and school:
1. More efficient locker layouts
- Automatic allocation: thanks to LoQit's electronic locking system, lockers can be automatically allocated based on specific criteria, such as training area, schedule or individual needs (think of lockers for students with a physical disability, for example). This eliminates manual assignment and reduces the administrative burden on the school.
- Size flexibility: The electronic locking system allows different sized lockers to be assigned based on students' needs. For example, students in courses with larger materials can receive larger lockers, while others retain the standard size.
- Broader applications: in addition to controlling the lockers, the LoQit application can also be used for other services in a school. This includes paying for printers/copiers or vending machines, all within one platform with just one app and/or school card.
- Fixed or dynamic use: the locker system makes it easy to assign lockers for fixed or dynamic use and can be quickly changed for a new school year.
2. Self-management
LoQit has 'Self-Management' as its core principle, which means that students can manage their own locker via the app. For example, they can link their school card for access or reserve a locker, which relieves the administrator and reduces administrative burdens. In addition, the administrator can easily manage all settings in the Locker Management system.
3. Enhanced security
The electronic locking system provides enhanced security with features such as biometric scanning and RFID technology. This ensures that only authorized students have access to their assigned lockers, ensuring the safety of personal belongings.

4. Integration with school software
The system can easily be integrated with other school software, such as student monitoring systems or electronic learning environments. This means that when a student registers, a locker can be automatically assigned based on the student's details, streamlining the administrative process. (Single Sign On)
