Managing Complex Property Operations
Ditch the Paper Log
A manual logbook that nobody trusts, and everybody ignores, isn't a system; it's a liability. e-Track replaces it with an automatic digital audit trail, logging every key movement across your estate against a named individual and a timestamp the moment it happens.
Control Contractor Access
Keys handed out on trust with no expiry are keys you may never see again. Our contractor key control system lets you set a time limit on every handover. When the job ends, the access ends automatically. No chasing, no exposure.
Track Every Key Movement
Grant access deliberately and take it back automatically. Set a time limit for contractors; when the booking ends, the accountability doesn't. No more chasing keys six weeks after the job is done.
Manage Keys on the Move
Property management doesn't happen behind a desk. Your team can transfer key ownership instantly from their phone, whether it's a 7 am contractor arrival or a late maintenance swap. No paper, no gaps, no guesswork. The system registers this and updates the web software accordingly.
Identify Any Key Instantly
Found a stray key in a drawer? One QR code scan returns the full history of any key on your estate what it opens, who last had it, and when it was returned. Complete key tracking for property managers, in seconds.
Manage Your Entire Portfolio
Manual systems don't scale they break. e-Track connects every key cabinet across every site into one centralised dashboard, giving you complete visibility and control whether you manage one building or twenty.
Key Cabinets for Property Management
Manual key management is a hidden liability in every property management operation. Unlocked drawers, paper logs, and ad hoc handovers create accountability gaps that only become visible when something goes wrong and by then, it's too late.
The Problem
Staff waste time locating keys held in desks or with colleagues. Paper logs are ignored, incomplete, or simply untrustworthy. When an incident occurs, there is no reliable record of who had access or when.
The Solution
e-Track's electronic key cabinets enforce digital authentication at every access point. Keys are only released via PIN, card, or biometric scan creating an automatic, tamper-proof audit trail for every transaction across every building on your portfolio.
The Benefit
Every key movement is logged against a named individual and a timestamp. Managers gain instant visibility across all sites from a single dashboard, removing the guesswork from day-to-day operations and providing the evidence trail your insurers and compliance obligations demand.
Booking keys ahead of time
When in-house staff need access to master keys, amenity spaces, or restricted areas, most estates still rely on verbal requests and manual handovers. The result is no advance visibility of who has what and no structured process to get it back.
The Problem
There is no way to see, in advance, which keys are already allocated, when they will be returned, or whether the right person has the right access at the right time. Keys are taken on an ad hoc basis with no system to manage conflicts, confirm job completion, or flag if something hasn't come back.
The Solution
The e-Track Booking Module allows estate and facilities staff to reserve specific keys for activities such as viewings or maintenance in advance either directly at the cabinet for same-day needs, or via the web platform for planned access in the coming days or weeks. On the requested date, the correct key is automatically allocated and released upon authentication.
The Benefit
Full advance visibility of key allocation across your estate. Staff arrive knowing exactly what to collect. On return, customisable prompts capture job completion confirmation, access location, and any incidents reported giving managers a structured record of every access event, not just a name and a time.

Frequently Asked Questions
A Property key management system is an electronic solution that controls, tracks, and audits every key across a residential or commercial property portfolio. Rather than relying on manual logs or unsecured hooks, keys are stored in tamper-proof cabinets and only released via PIN, card, or biometric authentication creating a complete digital record of every access event.
The most effective method is combining an electronic key cabinet with a booking and temp access system. Contractors are granted access for a defined time window only when the booking expires, the access expires automatically. Every handover is logged against the contractor's identity, removing the risk of keys being retained after a job is complete.

With an electronic key management system, every key movement is logged against a named individual and a timestamp. If a key is unaccounted for, you can immediately identify the last person to access it, when it was taken, and from which cabinet providing the audit trail your insurers and compliance obligations require.
Staff or facilities teams book specific keys in advance through the web platform or directly at the cabinet. On the requested date, the correct key is automatically allocated and released upon authentication. When the key is returned, customisable prompts confirm job completion, access location, and any incidents giving managers a structured record of every access event.

The system is used across build-to-rent, local authority, housing association, and commercial estate portfolios throughout the UK.
e-Track's systems are ISO 9001 certified and produce a 100% searchable, timestamped audit trail for every key movement. The High Secure range is Allianz approved and built with 6mm reinforced steel doors meeting the highest UK insurance standards for master keys and crucial keys. In the event of an audit or incident investigation, the evidence is always there and always instant.
Yes. Every key registered in the system can be assigned a unique QR code. A single scan returns the full history of that key : what it opens, every person who has accessed it, and when it was last returned. This eliminates the trial-and-error process of identifying unknown keys and keeps every asset accounted for across your estate.
