Keso Case Study - Hospital

The Challenge:

A hospital providing a wide range of healthcare services recognised the need to upgrade its security infrastructure to better support day-to-day operations.

With numerous departments and varying access requirements, maintaining a secure yet accessible environment for staff and patients was a top priority.

The hospital sought a solution that could:

• Prevent unauthorised access to restricted areas while ensuring ease of access for authorised personnel.
• Simplify key management to reduce the risk of key duplication and ensure that only the right individuals could access critical areas.
• Provide scalability to accommodate future expansions and potential technological upgrades to meet evolving security requirements.

The Approach:

• Supplying KESO high-security cylinders with patented technology.

The Solution:

Keso Cylinders offered a secure, flexible and scalable locking solution tailored to the hospital’s needs. Key benefits included:

• Coloured Cap Keys. Keso’s coloured cap keys ensured that staff members could quickly identify the appropriate keys for their designated areas.
• Chrome-plated Hardened Keys. The use of hardened keys enhanced the security of the hospital’s locking system by preventing key breakage.
• Master Key System. The hospital implemented a master key system that provided control over access to all areas.
• Availability of Long and Extra Long Keys. Keso’s provision of long and extra-long keys allowed the hospital to secure areas with large or non-standard doors.
• Potential for Mechatronic Upgrade. Looking ahead, the hospital invested in Keso’s potential for a mechatronic upgrade, enabling a transition to electronic access control when required.
