Lowe & Fletcher is proud to introduce its latest innovation, RAS 2.0!
Building on the success of our original Remote Allocation System (RAS) technology, RAS 2.0 has been expertly designed for ease and simplicity. Making it easy for both administrators and end users to utilize locking systems.
With RAS 2.0, there is no need to develop your own booking system. Ours is ready to go, with no internet connectivity required, no additional fees and no expensive hardware to buy. RAS makes it easy to make a booking, supply users with new codes, or simply let users book a locker themselves.
For administrators, allocating locks remotely has never been easier. Simply open the RAS 2.0 software and you can allocate locks in a single click (no need to handle keys), manually reset lockers, or keep a supervisor on site. Just visit the RAS 2.0 website and get a code.
To book locks by QR code, users can enjoy the efficiency of RAS 2.0’s intuitive self service function. They simply need to scan a QR barcode on their smartphone to access the mobile friendly booking page. RAS 2.0 then shows what lockers are available to book, giving users the ability to choose the locker type and size they require and how long they want it. Once confirmed, RAS allocates a locker, confirms the booking and then takes a payment (if required).

What Makes RAS 2.0 So Smart?
RAS 2.0 gives you the freedom to site your lockers anywhere with no need for external power supply, network cables or cloud connection fees. This removes the need for complex IT requirements as well as mitigating the risk of cyber security threats as there is no reliance on local area network connectivity.
When a user logs onto the RAS 2.0 platform, they are greeted with an interactive administrator dashboard that provides real time information on the current availability of locks and locker types.
From here you can easily filter to see which locks are available and ready to use, allocate lock codes and manage pre-bookings. This functionality doesn’t just apply to one facility, with RAS 2.0, you can manage the locks and lockers across multiple sites from one easy to use platform with no cloud connection or ongoing software service costs.
All that’s required to unlock a compartment is a simple code generated on our secure website, meaning that there is no need to handle keys, no need for on-site reprogramming and no need for a supervisor to be there in person.
- One simple code
- User-friendly dashboard

Use RAS 2.0 to Boost Revenue
The adaptability of our range of locking systems, combined with the power of RAS 2.0, means that you can turn your bank of smart lockers into a quick and easy source of revenue, generating income through rental of self service storage in applications such as:
- Luggage lockers for hotels
- Lockers at festivals and events
- Lockers at tourist attractions

- Plus many more!
Management can set pricing options based on the type of locker space, the size of the locker required and the duration of the rental period and take payment when a booking is confirmed via bank card.
Once a user has made a booking, the site then automatically sends them their unique access code without the need for administrative or supervisory staff.
The booking system can also be embedded directly into any existing company website for a seamless user experience.
