MODERN RFID LOCKER SOLUTIONS FOR A RENOWNED BOARDING SCHOOL
Case Study

Louisenlund  is one of Germany’s leading boarding schools. Situated on the historic castle grounds by the Schlei, the school combines tradition with state-of-the-art pedagogy in its newly constructed buildings. As both a secondary school and an IB World School, Louisenlund offers young people an excellent education—from the German Abitur to the International Baccalaureate.

As part of the collaboration, a total of 540 CAPTURA MIFARE locks were installed. Administration is handled centrally via the Lehmann Management Software (LMS). Teachers and students use their RFID transponder cards for secure and convenient access to the lockers.

Modern RFID locking solutions

At Louisenlund, CAPTURA locks are used in different configurations to optimize school processes:

  • 80 locks in the teachers’ lounge – with fixed locker assignment:
    Each teacher has a permanently assigned locker that securely stores personal belongings, confidential documents, or teaching materials while also ensuring quick access.
     
  • 460 locks for students – in free locker selection mode:
    Lockers are always available where they are needed, ensuring short walking distances and smooth daily routines. Multiple occupancy of a locker by a single user or transponder card is technically excluded.

Optimized processes and carefree service

The Lehmann Management Software (LMS) enables straightforward administration: access rights can be assigned quickly and user-friendly with just a mouse click.
At the same time, LEHMANN acts as a service partner by carrying out regular battery replacements and lock updates.

Customers such as Louisenlund benefit from LEHMANN’s continuous improvement process, through which products are consistently enhanced.
For example, as part of a service operation, the locks’ batteries were replaced and the installed locks were simultaneously updated with new firmware to further optimize their operation and performance.

 

Seamless integration into everyday school life

The CAPTURA locks quickly proved to be a robust, secure, and convenient solution in everyday school life. Both students and teachers benefit from their ease of use and reliable functionality. Based on this positive experience, Louisenlund has also consistently chosen CAPTURA locks for the construction of another new school building.

By using LEHMANN’s modern locking technology, Louisenlund ensures the secure storage of personal belongings and reinforces its position as an innovative, internationally oriented boarding school. The solution demonstrates how electronic locking systems can be seamlessly integrated into existing routines—delivering greater security, flexibility, and efficiency in everyday school life.
