Bisley launches BeSmart™

Feb 17, 2025|

A groundbreaking end-to-end smart service

We are proud to unveil BeSmart™—a comprehensive smart storage service designed to meet the growing demand for intelligent, data-driven storage and locker solutions. This new division brings together expert consultancy, cutting-edge smart locker technology, and ongoing support, helping businesses transform their storage infrastructure into a dynamic, future-ready asset.

BeSmart™ offers an end-to-end service, empowering clients with tailored smart storage solutions that maximise space, optimise workflows, and provide invaluable data insights. The service spans a diverse range of applications and sectors, including indoor and outdoor solutions for offices, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues, and more. For businesses looking to future-proof their space, BeSmart™ provides an innovative, adaptable, and secure storage solution that drives operational efficiency and enhances user experience.

Traditionally, specifying locks for storage systems has been a fragmented process, requiring clients to manually choose between mechanical or battery-operated solutions—often leading to outdated systems, lost keys, and lockers left permanently locked, wasting valuable space. With BeSmart™, we have streamlined this entire process into a cohesive, future-proofed service. From initial space planning to full installation and ongoing support, BeSmart™ ensures lockers are tailored to each business’s unique needs while integrating seamlessly into existing systems.

The demand for smart storage is growing rapidly, and BeSmart™ is at the forefront of this evolution. Smart lockers, which allow users to book strorage in advance, seamlessly integrating with hot desking platforms and event management apps for enhanced efficiency. They also support flexible access methods, including mobile apps and keycards. While they may appear to have a higher upfront cost, a key advantage is their ability to significantly reduce the overall number of lockers required—saving valuable floor space. For this reason, world leading law firms, iconic social media enterprises and global banks have already integrated Bisley smart solutions into their workplace and headquarters designs.

Guy Pollard, Bisley's Workplace Technology Director comments; “BeSmart™ is a game-changer for businesses looking to embrace the future of smart storage. By integrating cutting-edge technology, bespoke design, and expert consultancy into one service, we are helping clients optimise their spaces more effectively and efficiently than ever before. The data we collect from our smart lockers provides actionable insights that empower businesses to make informed decisions about space usage, ultimately saving money and improving the overall user experience.”

One of the standout features of BeSmart™ is its ability to generate real-time, actionable data. By tracking locker usage, businesses can make informed decisions about space planning and resource allocation. For example, BeSmart™ can identify which lockers are used the most, when they are accessed, and by whom. This data can then be used to optimise locker placement, improve workflows, reduce unnecessary usage, and enhance overall space utilisation.

LockerWall and Deco are the dedicated Bisley product offerings powered by BeSmart™. LockerWall is a bespoke solution that responds to the ever-changing landscape of storage, offering the flexibility to create an efficient, sleek system for any environment. Designed to seamlessly integrate into your project scheme and aesthetic with a wide range of material and colour finish options, including premium wood, MFC, CGL and steel, with a choice of flexible modular accessories including seating, AV units, display shelving and more. Featuring the latest smart locking software powered by BeSmart™, personal storage and facility management has never been simpler and safer.

In addition to its LockerWall solution, BeSmart™ also includes the stylish Deco, our freestanding steel locker solution which combines functionality with a modern aesthetic. With its curved, stylish end panels, Deco moves beyond the boxy styles typically associated with steel lockers, making it an ideal choice for curated, upscale environments such as hotels, spas, and retail spaces. Choose your column options to suit your use case and have the choice to place your control panels on the ends of locker banks to maximise door capacity.

The launch of BeSmart™ marks a significant step forward for Bisley, positioning us as a knowledge leader in smart technology with a dedicated team. With its potential to expand into the wider smart building market, BeSmart™ is not only about lockers; it is about redefining how storage can support broader operational goals and enhance space utilisation bringing businesses into the future.

As we continue to innovate, we remain committed to delivering high-quality, secure, and data-driven storage solutions that empower businesses to meet the evolving demands of the modern workspace.
