In today's diverse and inclusive society, ensuring equal opportunities for all individuals, regardless of their abilities, is paramount. The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) stands as a pivotal piece of legislation aimed at safeguarding the rights of people with disabilities. Promoting fairness, accessibility, and inclusivity.

For businesses, organisations, and educational institutes this means ensuring that their services and facilities are accessible to everyone, regardless of their abilities.

At LapSafe®, we understand the importance of providing DDA-compliant solutions, which is why we've implemented a DDA-compliant feature into our intelligent Smart Lockers.

DDA-Compliant Smart Lockers

LapSafe® Smart Lockers are powered by its innovative cloud-based management software, ONARKEN®.

ONARKEN® allows our Smart Lockers to offer multiple self-service solutions, such as asset loaning, an automated drop-off & collect service, and hot locker convenience. To ensure these services are available to everyone, ONARKEN® allows administrators to remotely manage locker bays.

With this easy locker management, adjustments can easily be made to accommodate the needs of individuals with disabilities. Administrators can ensure only bays within reach are made available to users, prioritising set bays for individuals with mobility impairments who may require access to lower, more accessible lockers. This not only promotes inclusivity and provides equal opportunities, but also ensures compliance with the DDA regulations.

At LapSafe®, we believe that everyone deserves equal access to services and facilities. With our Smart Lockers, entities can ensure DDA compliance while promoting inclusivity and accessibility for all. By designing technology-advanced solutions like Smart Lockers, we can create a more inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
