Keyper MX electronic key systems provide a total solution for effectively managing your entire key inventory, helping improve security and visibility, with greater efficiency and total accountability for your staff. The system provides fast, automated key access to authorized staff only, while maintaining an audit trail of every transaction.
Whether at the key cabinet or using our desktop or mobile administration software, managers and staff can quickly check the status of any key, reserve an asset, securely transfer ownership, run reports, and more. As an administrator, you gain all the tools needed to optimize daily processes around key access, while allowing KEYper MX to secure your inventory and track user activity, with immediate visibility of what matters most to your business.
See How it Works
Keys are stored and managed in a secure, steel cabinet, and can only be accessed by users authenticated via a personal PIN code, biometric fingerprint, or proximity card. Users can easily locate the keys they need in seconds, allowing for a fast and efficient transaction. When returning a key, the user simply logs into the system, places the key in any open position, and closes the door.
“These are the best and most user friendly machines we have ever used.”

A Simple and Economical Solution
KEYper Mechanical systems come in a range of capacities from 5 to 150 keys, offering a simple and effective method of managing and tracking your key inventory. Keys are secured to a plug, which is locked into one of the numbered key positions. Users can remove keys using their personalized access peg, which is then retained in the system until the key is returned.
This provides accountability for those removing keys, and enables you to perform a visual audit of the system to see who is in possession of a key at any time. Key plug and access pegs come in a range of colors for organizing key and user groups for even greater management efficiency.

FAQs
The automotive industry requires a high volume of keys to be accessed each day to demo cars, service customer vehicles, and move inventory around on the lot. Key control involves the processes for controlling, managing, and monitoring access to your key inventory, allowing your business to know exactly who has keys, when they took them, and why. KEYper offers effective solutions, like the KEYper MX, to solve these automotive key control needs and help your dealership become more secure and efficient in daily operations.
When you can better protect and manage your key inventory, there can be a number of measurable benefits to the bottom line of automotive operation.
- Improved security - Using a robust system, such as KEYper MX key cabinets, to protect and restrict access to keys helps provide better security for every car in your inventory. Because every transaction is electronically registered at the system, your supervisors can be immediately alerted to any activity that goes against your security protocols.
- Staff accountability - Whether using an electronic key control system, or the simpler KEYper Mechanical Key Control System, they both deliver the most important benefit of automotive key control – accountability. You will know who is responsible for any key currently checked out, and knowing this fact, your staff will tend to behave more responsibly with the keys they access. There's no more pointing fingers should a key go missing or not be returned on time.
- Operational efficiency - When your sales staff can locate and access the keys they need quickly, they can spend more time focused on closing the deal. An electronic key control system with mobile access means staff can see if a key is available, see who has the key they need, and even coordinate a transfer of that key out on the lot. Our mobile administration platform, KEYper GO, enables them to do this and so much more.
- Customer satisfaction - Your customers was fast and efficient service when it comes to buying a car and bringing it in for service. A defined key control strategy ensures that sales and service staff can access the keys they need quickly. KEYper Systems offers solutions to manage more than just keys, but also dealer plates, fuel cards, and other sensitive assets that ship with newer electric vehicles.
