A New Facility, A New Approach

Tergooi Medical Center recently consolidated several outdated buildings into a single new facility. To support this modern space, management sought a locker solution that could serve more than 500 employees while eliminating keys, padlocks and permanent assignments.

They needed secure, flexible storage that would streamline staff workflow and be centrally managed from day one.

Tergooi’s Challenges

Outdated Locker Methods
Previous lockers relied on keys and padlocks, slowing down access and creating administrative hassles.

Fixed Personal Lockers
Assigning lockers permanently wasted space and limited flexibility when staffing levels changed.

Limited Changing Facilities
Staff needed a central place to swap personal clothes for hospital uniforms, but space constraints made traditional lockers impractical.

Manual Administration
Without a digital platform, tracking locker usage and reallocations required time‑consuming manual work.

A Smarter Solution

Discovery
As part of its new construction project, Tergooi searched for a flexible locker system that would eliminate keys and simplify change‑room management.

Solution & Recommendation
Keynius proposed a combination of flex lockers controlled via an RFID terminal for the central changing area and personal lockers with door‑mounted RFID readers in each department.

Customization & Collaboration
The teams met regularly to discuss workflows, and staff received hands‑on training during startup to ease the transition from traditional lockers.

Why Keynius
Tergooi chose Keynius for its balance of advanced technology and competitive pricing, plus its ability to deliver both flex and personal lockers within the same platform.

The Results: Flexible Storage and Streamlined Operations

Staff can now access change room lockers for 12‑hour shifts and store personal items without keys, while management gained central oversight of more than 1 ,400 locker doors.

  • Central changing area offers hundreds of flex lockers for shift‑based use.
  • Department‑level personal lockers store items like laptops and meals.
  • All lockers are operated via access card and centrally managed through Keynius.
  • Six‑month deployment allowed Tergooi to open its new hospital with modern storage from day one.

Conclusion

Tergooi Medical Center’s move to a single new campus demanded a fresh approach to staff storage. With Keynius’ smart lockers, the hospital replaced key‑dependent lockers with a flexible system that supports shift‑based clothing changes and personal storage in each department.

Employees now enjoy secure access via RFID cards, and administrators oversee locker assignments and usage in real time. The project demonstrates how digital locker solutions can enhance workflow and optimize space in a modern healthcare environment.
