KEYes Company Profile

In recent years, the number of unmanned stations across the country has been steadily increasing, and railway companies are considering optimal customer service methods for these unmanned stations. At Kyushu Railway Company, keys have been stored and managed at major stations until now, but in the event of a problem at an unmanned station, it was necessary to first go to a major station to retrieve the keys before heading to the unmanned station. However, recognizing the challenges posed by the time taken to reach the major station and the potential for issues to arise at other unmanned stations during trouble response, they have introduced a smart key box. For more details, please feel free to contact us! 【What are the smart key boxes and key lock services provided by KEYes?】 These are smart locks (such as smart padlocks and smart key boxes) that can be unlocked via a dedicated app installed on a smartphone, along with a key management system to manage them. By granting unlocking permissions for the smart locks to smartphones through a web-based management site, the smart locks can be unlocked from the smartphone. Additionally, the history of "when," "which padlock," "who," and "where" it was opened is uploaded to the management site, allowing for the review of unlocking history for all padlocks from the management site.

Recently, there has been a surge in theft (loss) incidents involving items stored in lockers managed with simple locks. The prevalent management methods, such as "keeping keys in easily accessible places" and "using ledgers for history management," are heavily based on the assumption of good faith, creating an environment where theft could occur at any time. As a countermeasure, a certain company's food factory has installed KEYes smart padlocks in their storage lockers. The KEYes smart padlock sends unlocking history to the management screen upon unlocking, ensuring that usage history is reliably obtained, which effectively helps in suppressing and preventing internal misconduct. Additionally, the authority to unlock can be freely set, making it a useful measure to prevent crimes by former employees, such as those who have changed jobs or resigned.
