“The Medeco T21 Key Management System is a sophisticated stand-alone key management system that combines innovative RFID technology with a robust design,” said Amanda Troise, Medeco Mechanical Product Line Manager. “It’s a cost-effective high-tech product housed in an attractive sleek case that clearly boasts form as much as it does function. So we’re thrilled that the T21 Key Management System won a GOOD DESIGN award.”
The Medeco T21 helps small to medium-sized businesses manage up to 21 keys or keysets in a plug and play solution. It helps resolve the questions: Are your keys securely stored? Do you monitor who has access to keys? Are keys issued without proper authorizations? Are you concerned with keys being shared or lost? Would you like to reduce the risk of lost keys?
