Luxer One Smart Lockers Earn Industry-First UL Certification

Luxer One Smart Lockers Earn Industry-First UL Certification

Safety, reliability, and trust have always been core to how Luxer One designs and manufactures smart locker solutions. That commitment was formally recognized when Luxer One became the first smart locker manufacturer to earn UL certification, setting a new benchmark for safety and compliance across the industry.

This certification marked an important milestone not only for Luxer One, but for property owners, operators, architects, and organizations seeking safe smart lockers built to perform reliably in high-traffic, real-world environments.

What Does It Mean to Be UL-Certified?

UL (Underwriters Laboratories) is one of the most trusted and widely recognized independent safety certification organizations in the world. UL certification verifies that a product has been rigorously tested to meet established standards for electrical safety, fire resistance, and long-term performance.

For smart lockers, this matters more than many realize. These systems combine electrical components, software, physical access points, and frequent daily use, often in shared or public spaces. UL certification confirms that these systems are designed not only to function efficiently, but to do so safely and consistently over time.

By earning UL certification, Luxer One smart lockers meet nationally recognized safety standards that help reduce risk for buildings, users, and owners alike.

“Luxer One’s UL Certification establishes our company as the smart locker standard for public education and government settings, where building codes require that all installed products also fall in top compliance.” 

– Ethan Dempsey, Director of Engineering, Luxer One

Luxer One smart lockers are UL-certified

Why UL Certification Matters for Smart Lockers

As smart lockers become a critical part of package management, asset distribution, and secure pickup workflows, safety can’t be an afterthought. UL-certified smart lockers offer meaningful advantages across industries:

 

1. Increased Building and User Safety

UL certification helps ensure that electrical components, wiring, and enclosures are built to minimize hazards such as overheating, short circuits, or fire risk. For properties with dense package volumes or 24/7 access, this level of protection is essential.

 

2. Confidence for Owners and Operators

For property owners and operators, choosing UL-certified smart lockers provides peace of mind. Certification reduces liability concerns and supports safer building operations, particularly in environments with shared access like apartment communities, offices, and retail locations.

 

3. Support for Architects and Specifiers

Architects and designers often prioritize products that meet recognized safety standards to streamline approvals and inspections. UL certification makes Luxer One smart lockers easier to specify, approve, and integrate into new construction or retrofit projects.

 

4. Long-Term Reliability

UL testing evaluates durability under real-world conditions, not just ideal scenarios. That means Luxer One lockers are designed to hold up under repeated daily use while maintaining performance and safety standards over time.

Setting a New Industry Standard

At the time of certification, Luxer One was the only smart locker provider to achieve this distinction. While many locker systems rely on off-the-shelf components or partial compliance, Luxer One pursued full certification as part of a broader commitment to quality and accountability.

This achievement reflects Luxer One’s approach to product development: design, engineer, and manufacture systems that are not only innovative, but dependable and built to last.

UL certification reinforces what Luxer One customers already expect: technology that works seamlessly behind the scenes, without compromising safety.

Designed for Real-World Environments

Luxer One smart lockers are deployed across a wide range of environments, including:

In each of these settings, lockers must support frequent access, varying package sizes, and continuous operation. UL certification validates that Luxer One’s systems are designed for these demands, offering safe smart lockers that perform reliably at scale.

A Commitment That Goes Beyond Certification

While UL certification is a major achievement. It represents just one part of Luxer One’s broader commitment to safety, reliability, and operational excellence.

From in-house software development to U.S.-based manufacturing and responsive customer support, Luxer One focuses on delivering systems that property teams can trust.

Earning UL certification wasn’t about checking a box. It was about raising expectations for what smart locker solutions should deliver.

Looking Ahead

As package volumes continue to grow and secure delivery becomes increasingly critical, safety standards will matter more than ever. Luxer One remains committed to leading the industry with solutions that combine smart technology, thoughtful design, and proven safety credentials.

UL-certified smart lockers are one more way Luxer One helps properties operate with confidence both today and in the future.
