SMART Asset Lockers at Birmingham Children’s Hospital
A tailored locker solution improving IT equipment distribution, accessibility, and security across a leading UK children’s hospital.
Background
Birmingham Children’s Hospital (BCH) is a leading specialist facility that treats some of the most vulnerable patients in the UK. With hundreds of staff, patients, and visitors on site every day, the hospital needed an innovative solution to improve the way shared IT equipment was distributed, managed, and returned.
After seeing the successful deployment of our SMART Asset Lockers at Coventry & Warwick Hospital, BCH wanted to implement a more sophisticated and tailored system to meet their unique operational requirements.

The Challenge
The IT department at BCH faced a recurring problem: ensuring that shared laptops, tablets, and other devices were securely stored, easily accessible, and efficiently tracked. Manual distribution processes were time-consuming, prone to loss, and created unnecessary delays for staff who needed quick access to technology.
Their objectives were clear:
Create a smart asset management system that could distribute, receive, and track IT equipment seamlessly.
Ensure lockers were accessible for all users, including those with disabilities.
Deliver a solution that fit within budget constraints while still offering advanced functionality.
The Garran Solution
Our team worked closely with BCH to design and install a SMART Asset Locker wall, fully customised to their requirements.
Key Features
Secure smart locking system
Assets are preloaded by IT administrators, who issue users with unique access codes. Equipment can be returned using the same secure code.
Accessibility-first design
Ensuring compliance and inclusivity for all staff and visitors.
Custom vinyl wrap
A bespoke finish that blended seamlessly with the hospital environment.
Future-ready functionality
The system is scalable, allowing BCH to add lockers or upgrade software as their needs evolve.
The Birmingham Children’s Hospital project is a strong example of how Garran designs and delivers tailored smart locker systems for healthcare environments. Through close collaboration, advanced technology, and attention to detail, we were able to provide BCH with a reliable, secure, and efficient solution that will support their staff and patients for years to come.
