Why choose a dedicated parcel locker lock

A Parcel Locker Lock is the offline card cabinet lock tuned for last-mile pickup stations: it reads EM (125 kHz) or MIFARE (13.56 MHz) cards so a station reuses an existing resident or operator card pool, authenticates per-door on-chip so the station keeps operating through any network outage, and ships in an industrial metal chassis rated for outdoor-station and high-cycle daily use.

How a parcel locker lock works

A driver or resident taps a card on the door reader; the lock verifies the card on-chip in under 0.6 seconds and drives the latch. A manager card programs and revokes cards per locker without re-keying. Each door runs on 4× AA alkaline cells (or a DC adapter on select SKUs), so the station needs no network cabling per locker. Battery life runs roughly a year, keeping service intervals predictable at scale.
