Accessible Package Lockers for Every Resident: How Luxer One Designs with Inclusion in Mind

ADA Day is more than a date on the calendar, it’s a powerful reminder that accessibility isn’t just about checking boxes. For property and asset managers, it’s about building communities where every resident feels empowered and included. From mobility challenges to cognitive or sensory impairments, accessibility needs vary but your package management system should meet them all.

At Luxer One, we believe that everyone deserves equal access to essential services. That’s why we’ve built accessible package lockers from the ground up, not just to meet ADA standards, but to exceed expectations.

What Makes a Package Locker ADA Compliant?

ADA compliance is more than hardware specs. It’s a commitment to design that removes barriers for everyone. According to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), accessibility in package systems includes:

Reachable compartments (between 15″ and 48″ from the ground)
Clear, readable instructions
Accessible user interfaces for those with hearing, vision, mobility, or cognitive disabilities
Adequate space for wheelchair access

At Luxer One, our lockers are designed to meet these requirements at every touchpoint ensuring every resident can retrieve packages independently and confidently.

How Luxer One Builds Accessible Package Lockers from the Start

Visual Impairments

Our Assistive Controller empowers residents with low or no vision. With a built-in headphone jack and tactile control button, users receive step-by-step audio instructions through their headphones. Every package pickup is clear and easy to follow.

Hearing Impairments

Every locker interface includes written prompts and visual cues to ensure residents who are deaf or hard of hearing can complete pickup without audio assistance. It’s part of our philosophy: clear, simple communication for all.

Cognitive Impairments

We’ve designed our system to be intuitive, with minimal steps and clear on-screen guidance. For residents with cognitive disabilities or processing challenges, our lockers eliminate confusion and offer a predictable, user-friendly experience.

Mobility Impairments

Our lockers are installed within ADA-compliant height ranges, with accessible compartments and a system interface at the appropriate height. Residents can also use our mobile app to set a “Locker Height Preference”, ensuring their packages are placed in accessible compartments (below 4 feet) whenever possible.

Installation with Intent

We don’t leave accessibility up to chance. Every Luxer One installation follows strict ADA layout guidance to ensure lockers and rooms are compliant with federal regulations and local building codes.

Additional Support from Luxer Liaison

For residents needing extra assistance, especially when handling oversized or heavy items, our Luxer Liaison service can step in. On-site staff can facilitate to-the-door deliveries and help bridge any gaps, adding a personal layer of accessibility support.

Accessible, ADA Compliant Package Lockers That Are Future-Ready

Inclusive design isn’t just a legal responsibility, it’s a competitive advantage. Communities that prioritize accessibility see stronger resident satisfaction, higher retention, and fewer complaints.

As accessibility expectations evolve, Luxer One is ready. Our technology and support services help properties stay ahead of regulations while serving a broader, more diverse resident base.

Are There Weather-Resistant Package Lockers for Properties With No Indoor Space?

The short answer is yes. Weather-resistant package lockers are specifically designed for properties without indoor space.
For multifamily communities with garden-style layouts, exterior corridors, or limited interior square footage, outdoor locker systems provide a secure and durable package management solution.
The key is choosing lockers engineered for long-term exterior exposure and not simply placing an indoor system outside.

How to Set Up a Smart Mailroom (And What It Means for Your Office)

A smart mailroom is a technology-enabled mail and package management system that automates how deliveries are received, stored, and retrieved in an office building. Instead of manually logging packages or relying on staff to manage pickups, a smart mailroom uses software, smart lockers, and automated notifications to streamline the entire process.
For workplace and office managers, it’s a practical solution to reduce administrative burden, improve delivery security, and increase operational efficiency.

How Good Is Luxer One’s Customer Support? What Property Managers Should Know

When property managers evaluate package management solutions, features and hardware matter. But one question consistently rises to the top during vendor selection and renewal conversations: How good is the customer support?
For communities managing hundreds or even thousands of residents, package systems are not “set it and forget it” amenities. They are operational infrastructure. That means support must extend beyond basic troubleshooting and instead function as a long-term partnership.
So how good is Luxer One customer support? In short, it is designed to support properties from installation through daily operations and beyond, with proactive, human-centered service backed by technology that prevents problems before they escalate.
