Key management at automotive dealerships | Architecture & Design

Automotive dealerships and rental car fleets need to be in control and able to track car key activity at all times. With a completely organised key management system in place, car dealerships will be able to reduce unauthorised access and cut down on key loss. One of the most secure ways of doing this is with a Telkee vehicle key cabinet, which is designed specifically to control access to keys in a vehicle lot, servicing bay or inspection shop. Each key should be attached to a numbered (either pre-numbered or customised according to your unique numbering system) key tag and placed on a numbered key hook within a durable and secure lockable key cabinet. Keep reading for a few reasons how a vehicle key management system can help your automotive dealership.

Without an effective and secure key storage system in place, it’s almost impossible to constantly monitor dozens or hundreds of vehicles for lost keys, mystery mileage and unexplained damage, which leads to unnecessary expenses and increasing insurance costs.

Telkee Key Cabinets provides dealerships in Australia key storage systems with the ability to track where all their keys are, where they have been, and who needs to be held accountable – minus the delay of having to hunt this information down! By using the vehicle key rack, which has specially designed key hooks to hold large bunches of keys, key tags, perforated number sheets for the key hooks and Telkee signature strips, which need to be filled out before keys are accessed, you will have all this information at your fingertips.

Provide faster, better service with dealership key management

No more wasting time hunting for keys, while the customer grows impatient! Take a client for a test drive in a matter of minutes and close the sale faster. Choose to have your vehicle key rack equipped with keyless entry featuring a mechanical keypad locking mechanism, a manager override lock and a slam latch door. Th keypad will allow sales staff to access car keys in minutes by entering the pin number. The slam latch door feature means the key cabinet is secured as soon as the door is closed. The manager override lock function allows managers to secure vehicle keys at night by locking the cabinet with a key, so no one else has access to the stored keys.
