KitLock ger flexibilitet vid åtkomst till skåp i Peer 1-datacenter

Peer 1 Hosting tillhandahåller en rad datacentertjänster, inklusive managed hosting, dedikerade servrar, colocation och cloud computing. 

Colocation-tjänster erbjuds i Peer 1:s datacenter som är utrustade och konfigurerade för att ge kunderna säker tillgång till rack och burar. Peer 1:s kunder hyr serverskåp och burar och hanterar sin egen hårdvara. Peer 1 har toppmoderna colocation-anläggningar i 10 större stadskärnor i Nordamerika och Europa. 

Peer 1:s Data Centre Operations Manager, Mike Duncan, ansvarar för att varje serverskåp är säkert låst och oåtkomligt för andra colocation-kunder. Innan du använder KitLock digitala lås, varje skåp låstes med ett skräddarsytt hänglås och nyckel.

“To control access from the outside, we use high-tech security solutions. Yet on the inside we still used old-fashioned padlocks and keys,” explains Mr Duncan. “At full capacity our data centres could have up to a thousand locked cabinets and that’s a huge number of keys to manage and find space for”. 

“The feedback from customers was also negative. Many of their technicians and service support staff forgot to bring the padlock key with them when they visited the data centre. So while they were able to enter the building with biometric access control, they were not able to get instant access to their cabinet. If a customer forgets their padlock key, they have to wait while a Peer 1 member of staff locates the master key and opens the cabinet for them. When the customer is finished, the cabinet is relocked and the key safely stored. Not only does this slow the customer down, but it also costs them money as there is a charge for our time.” 

“Our customers also told us that the problem wouldn’t be so bad if keys were not forgotten or lost on such a regular basis. If a key is lost, often the customers choose to replace the entire locking system, again this is an additional cost but necessary in order to maintain security.”

 

Peer 1 Hosting bestämde sig för att leta efter ett modernare och mer funktionellt alternativ till hänglåsen - ett som skulle ge deras kunder bättre kontroll över åtkomsten till sin egen hårdvara i byggnaden.

 

 

Bli nyckellös med KitLock

KitLock KL1200 är en nyckelfritt digitalt lås speciellt utformad för att säkra skåp och förvaringsskåp. Den ger enkel åtkomst via knappsats utan krångel med nycklar. Istället får man åtkomst genom att ange en fyrsiffrig kod på knappsatsen. Med KitLock kan en åttasiffrig huvudkod användas för att enkelt radera och återställa åtkomstkoderna. En KitLock KL1200 ger 50 000 öppningar med bara två AAA-batterier.

 

“One of my colleagues started looking online for keyless cabinet locks, and found the KitLock website,” said Mr Duncan. “The KitLock 1200 exactly matched our requirements in terms of functionality, so we decided to retrofit all of the cabinets installed at our data centre with this product.”

 

 

Positiv feedback

 

“Due to the sensitivity of the equipment in the cabinets, we keep a record of the Master Codes for each KitLock, and customers maintain their own access codes,” added Mr Duncan. “If a customer forgets their code, we can generate a new one at the touch of a button and without incurring any additional costs. Customers are much happier with the new system, it’s far less time consuming and I don’t have to worry about keys anymore!”

 

Regelbundna ändringar av åtkomstkoderna säkerställer att KitLock förblir effektivt och förhindrar att koder missbrukas eller skickas vidare.

 

“Codelocks has been super-helpful throughout the whole process, and I’ve really enjoyed working with them,” continued Mr Duncan. “They added our logo to the lock handles and changed the factory-set Master Codes on all of the locks before they were shipped to us, which significantly speeds up the installation process.”

 

KitLock är ett varumärke som tillhör Codelocks Ltd. Codelocks är en innovativ designer och tillverkare av elektroniska tryckknappslås för dörrar, skåp och skåp.
