Basically, when it comes to establishing a key control and management policy, you need to carry out three essential things;

  • Enforcing/maintaining maximum security of premises with reasonable usability of physical assets
  • Maintaining strict control over office key and lock systems including Master keys & duplicates as well as distribution amongst key authorities/personnel
  • Measures taken to record chain of accountability for key issuance and use/management of lockable key cabinets

All the above can be carried out by a TelKee Key Cabinet, the only thing you will then need to figure out is how many keys you want to store and also whether you are planning on expanding that number (thus needing more capacity). Telkee can provide expansion panels with key hooks to store up to 550 keys to be fitted into the 686L TelKee Key Cabinet Model.
