The essential radios, glucometers, IO drivers, and airway equipment your crews use are often what goes missing most from an open cabinet. The UCapIt ClearVision Healthcare & Medical Supply Smart Locker keeps them behind clear, locked doors at the station, where only cleared providers can open a compartment. Every device is checked out to the provider who takes it and checked back in when it returns. If it isn’t back on schedule, it’s flagged as overdue, and you know exactly who had it last. Equipment goes back into service instead of being lost and replaced, and leadership tracks every station’s equipment from the same portal as your UCapIt vending machines.

Client Testimonials
The UCapIt ClearVision Healthcare & Medical Supply Smart Locker helps your agency keep every station ready, every crew protected, and every dollar going where it's needed. Crews get what the call requires, day or night, and leadership gets the confidence that nothing is missing or wasted.
Right Supplies, Right Stations: Stock moves to the stations that use it, so no station runs short while another sits on extra.
Leaner Ambulances: Crews trust the station to have what they need, so units carry what the call requires instead of a truck full of extras.
Less Expired Stock: Backup supplies get used before they lapse instead of expiring on a unit.
Equipment That Comes Back: High-value devices return to service after every call instead of being lost and replaced.
Smarter Purchasing: Orders follow real usage, so your budget stops paying for items you already have.
Less Overuse: Crews take what the call requires, not whatever an open cabinet allows.

A stand-alone unit configures up to 18 compartments, and a satellite unit up to 20. The standard mix pairs fourteen to sixteen openings at 5-1/4"H x 11-3/8"W with four taller 10-3/4"H x 11-3/8"W openings, all 21-7/8" deep. Because the compartments adjust, capacity depends on what you store. Your rep will build the layout around your station’s equipment.
A smart locker is built for equipment that’s expensive to replace and has to come back after every call. That includes radios, tablets, AEDs, video laryngoscopes, IO drivers, glucometers, pulse oximeters, and spare batteries and chargers, with larger devices fitting the tall compartments. Each item is checked out to the provider who takes it and checked back in when it returns. Anything not back on schedule is flagged as overdue, so a missing device never goes unnoticed, and you always know who had it last.
A vending machine dispenses one item at a time and is built for medications and high-use consumables. A locker opens a whole compartment, which makes it the right fit for equipment that goes out on a call and comes back, for narcotics boxes, and for kits and supplies too large for a machine.
Yes. Sealed narcotics boxes can be stored in a locked compartment that opens only for providers authorized to carry them. Each box is checked out to a provider and checked back in when it returns, and every transaction is logged with the provider, the box, and the time. That record lives in the same iQ Technology system as your UCapIt vending machines, giving you a clear chain of custody across the station.
Clear doors let a crew confirm an item is there before badging in, and let a supply officer check stock with a walk past the locker. Solid doors are available when you’d rather keep contents out of view.
Radios, tablets, glucometers, and other devices are checked out and returned through the locker. Every transaction is tied to the provider who made it, overdue items are flagged, and iQ Technology shows what’s out, who has it, and how long it’s been gone.
A provider signs in at the 10.1" touch screen with their badge, fob, PIN, biometrics, or another access method, selects an item, and the assigned compartment unlocks. Returns work the same way. Every transaction is tied to the provider and timestamped.
Compartments stay locked until an authorized provider signs in, and permissions follow role and certification. You can limit how many of an item a provider can take at a time, and the locker will track when an item is checked back in or flag when the item isn’t back yet.
Yes. Every transaction is logged with the provider, the item, and the time, so when a discrepancy comes up, administrators can pull the history in minutes instead of spending hours reconstructing what happened. That same record protects crews when a busy shift leads to a missed manual entry.
Each station’s locker reports into one portal, so leadership can see what every station holds and what it uses. Stations running short and stations sitting on extra are easy to spot, and levels can be set to match each station’s call volume.
Crews stash extras on the truck when they aren’t sure the station will have what they need. A locker gives them 24/7 access at the station, so units can carry what the call requires and restock after each run.
Most expired stock comes from carrying more than a unit will use. Keeping backup stock in the station locker means less of it rides on the truck, and expiration alerts flag dated items before they lapse.
You can set up low-stock alerts and replenishment workflows so you know what needs reordering before a station runs short. Your rep can build a stocking plan around each station’s call volume.
Most installations are quick and cause minimal disruption to your stations. After an initial consultation, UCapIt handles delivery, setup, stocking, and crew training, and your rep will give you a clear schedule.
Pricing depends on configuration, the number of units, and what you plan to store, so UCapIt scopes each solution to your agency. Leasing and financing options are available to reduce the upfront cost.
