What others say...
We’re biased. Hear what some of our customers have said about the E series.
We’ve collated a few recent quotes below. We also have various video and paper case studies from different NHS Trusts, who talk about how our solutions, services and expertise have helped with their projects.
"It had been highlighted through internal auditing and with the CQC that we needed to do some work around our drug storage and the security of medication. There were a lot of issues around having a single set of drug keys, particularly in the A&E, which meant staff were often searching for keys, delaying obtaining medications, wasting their time—which is very precious when they’re very busy and their workload is very high. So, it was really good that we were able to work closely with TouchPoint around developing the e-locks system for our drugs cupboards.
Feedback from staff has been absolutely brilliant for these locks. They find them so easy to use, it saves them time, they don’t have to worry about looking for keys any longer, and—ultimately—it’s had a big benefit for patient care because they’re no longer getting delayed looking for medications when they’re needed urgently."

"My involvement with the swipe access locks goes back to the very beginning. I was asked "If you could design your own lock, what would it be?" I answered, "ideally, swipe access with your ID badge, so when you go to the cupboard you can just present your ID and open the cupboard and it would then recognise who’d been in (so, it'd be auditable), easy to use, reliable and self-locking."
We agreed on having a six-month trial of the locks and we had them fitted in the cabinets back in 2019. We then approached 2020 and COVID hit, and the locks remained in situ for the whole two years of COVID. They worked phenomenally well—they didn’t give up; they didn’t break. They have proved to be fantastic and the cupboards are used pretty much constantly all through the day."
