The difference between key management cabinet, smart key cabinet and smart key management cabinet

With the development of locks and the increase in the number of locks used, key management cabinets have emerged. Today, let's take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of three common key management cabinets on the market.

1. Key management cabinet: Managing mechanical keys requires a dedicated person to manage them. The collection and return of keys require a dedicated person to record them, and there is no record of opening or closing locks. Keys are easily copied and suitable for places with low confidentiality and large quantities of keys that need to be managed.

2. Smart Key Cabinet: Manage mechanical keys, with facial recognition, card swiping, fingerprint and other verification methods for key collection and return. RFID smart key chains are used, and key collection can be remotely authorized without the need for dedicated personnel management. But there is a lack of lock opening and closing records. Keys pose a risk of being copied, making them suitable for places with low confidentiality and large quantities of keys that need to be managed.

3. Smart Key Management Cabinet: Manage smart keys without the need for dedicated personnel. When the smart key is not authorized inside the cabinet, it has no permission. It automatically matches the unlocking permission based on facial recognition, and the opening and closing lock logs can be automatically uploaded to the platform. The key cabinet automatically charges the smart key to ensure sufficient battery power during use. When the park is too large, multiple smart key management cabinets can be installed. One key cabinet can bind all keys in the park, and the smart keys can be returned nearby. The key cabinet has a reminder for overdue returns. If the smart key is not returned within the deadline, it will automatically become invalid and there is no risk of theft or loss. The smart key is used for one to many unlocking, and multiple locks can be equipped with only one smart key. The smart key uses AES encryption technology, which is difficult to replicate and has high security, making it suitable for places with high confidentiality.
