The inspiring college ensures that their students are supported to access transferable, meaningful learning opportunities in a way that takes account of their unique learning style and the impact their ASD has upon them. Their multidisciplinary team of psychologists, education specialists and care providers have done an amazing job in helping their students to increase their confidence, knowledge, and self-esteem.
CHALLENGES:
Beechwood college are a loyal KeyTracker customer as they have had the mechanical key system operating in their workplace for many years. The ease of use and smooth operation that the mechanical system brought to their establishment, encouraged them to implement additional systems in place to continue the ease of use for their 200 members of staff that require access and alarms.
SOLUTIONS:
After consulting with a member from KeyTracker’s sales team, they followed through with purchasing an additional system as well as colour coded pegs for each unit with different sized cabinets to meet the company’s needs. The different qualities especially the ease of use is extremely beneficial for Beechwood College as all they needed was a secure system that was quick and easy for all of their staff to use.
RESULTS:
- Improved Efficiency
- Increased Security

OXFORD BROOKES UNIVERSITY
Oxford Brookes University is one of the UK’s leading modern universities and enjoys an international reputation for teaching excellence, innovation, and strong links with business and industry. They have over 150 years of history and started as a small School of Art in borrowed teaching rooms. They have since grown into one of the UK’s top modern universities with a local, national, and international reputation for teaching and research excellence. The university has much to be proud of and continues pushing itself and its students.
CHALLENGES:
Oxford Brookes University had a standard key safe in multiple locations on-site as part of their key management process. This system worked for a while, but ultimately, it wasn’t as secure as they would have liked and caused a few accessibility issues. For example, the master key was misplaced. It resulted in having to replace all of the locks and keys, which is a frustrating and unnecessary expense.
SOLUTIONS:
Oxford Brookes University purchased an electronic key cabinet from KeyTracker for a more efficient and secure key management process and to prevent mishaps such as misplaced keys. They now have access to software that allows them to get an immediate visual on each key’s live status and the ability to control which user has access to which key. Another benefit, which has proven very useful for the academic institution, is managing all site keys from any location.
RESULTS:
- Improved Efficiency
- Increased Security
“Excellent support from KeyTracker all the way through from the sales team to the aftersales team. The installation team made the process very simple for us and the support once we were up and running was superb. 100 Security, caretaking, estates, and cleaning team members use the system. It is difficult to give a time saving but key security is a premium for us, and this system gives us that.
There were a few doubters when we proposed the KeyTracker system but once installed and the amazing benefits were seen the doubters soon disappeared. The control of our estates keys has been transformed. Prior to our install we had a master key lost requiring a building to have all the locks replaced. If the KeyTracker system had already been in place, we could have saved these costs.
KeyTracker was the best for us, excellent support from Sales all the way through to the after sales team. I would recommend their key systems to anyone.”
