An electronic key safe, also referred to as a key cabinet, is a specialized safe designed to provide protection to keys.
The inclusion of electronic components in an electronic key safe ensures that access to the keys can only be granted through an electronic access control system that is computer operated. These control processes offer enhanced security measures in comparison to their mechanical counterparts and enable the user to precisely monitor who accesses and returns the keys and at what time.
Electronic key safes offer a range of significant security benefits, including:
- Tracking key access and return times
- Identifying individuals who have accessed keys, as well as the company assets they secure
- Regulating key access on an individual basis, as well as for company assets
- Preventing unauthorized entry into restricted areas and access to assets
Electronic key safes are particularly popular in mining, government, and military settings. However, they are also suitable for businesses seeking to regulate key and company asset access.
With an electronic key safe, a comprehensive record and audit trail of access to the premises and assets is provided, thus enhancing security and ensuring certainty.
