Why deister key management
Control who uses your keys
Keys are secured within the key cabinet using our robust keyTags. With our secure self-service system, the cabinet door and each keyTag within will only release if a user has been assigned permission.
Create responsibility for keys
With real-time reports logging all system usage, users can be held liable for the misuse, theft or loss of keys. You can even set up alerts to notify of unreturned or overdue keys.
Uses the most powerful key management software
Our key management software is powerful enough to run multiple systems and support a wide range of additional features including fault logging and reservation systems.
Backwards compatibility
All deister solutions are backwards compatible. This means if your needs evolve, your system can be expanded upon without the need to replace the original key cabinets.
Able to integrate with other systems
deister’s key management system can be operated using existing access control cards as well as integrated with all deister products and third-party systems.
Includes lifetime keyTag guarantee
As a central part of securing keys within a cabinet, our highly robust keyTags come with a lifetime guarantee to ensure that your system remains secure and operational.

The key cabinet is an integral part of the key management system.

The maxx cabinet series
The maxx key cabinet blends the functionality of a professional key management system with a sleek design for use in prominent locations.
The maxx key cabinet allows full control whilst providing quick and easy access to keys to those authorised. The convenient and reliable automatic roller shutter door keeps keys hidden from view and allows the key cabinet to be located in areas where space is restricted such as a corridor, where a conventional hinged door would be a problem. The roller shutter door makes the maxx a secure key storage system, with the door auto-closing when left idle.
Available with either 32 or 64 keyTag capacity, maxx key cabinets can be combined with other maxx or flexx key cabinets where additional key storage is required and multiple cabinets can all be managed by the same control terminal.

The keyTag
The keyTag is the heart of a key management system. As the most important and critical part of the system it must perform flawlessly in all environments to ensure access to keys when needed.
That’s why deister’s key management systems use RFID keyTags as RFID is inherently more reliable than contact identification. This allows our keyTags to provide maximum operational life with minimum cost.
- Lifetime keyTag warranty
- Contactless and maintenance free
- Suitable for sanitisation
- Includes key ring and seal
- No battery to replace
