How can one be in two places at the same time? When it’s discovered you simply cannot pull off the magic of assisting one customer at their storage unit and acknowledge another waiting in the lobby, it’s time to contact Ritron. And that’s exactly what Shamrock Self Storage did to solve this problem.
Solution: Callbox and a Two-Way Radio
A common scenario in the self-storage business occurs when the manager, working alone, is called away from the lobby in order to show a unit or help a customer. This leaves any new customer visiting the facility with the poor experience of being greeted by the “I’ll be back in 10 minutes” sign on the locked door. Accommodate these customers with proper signage and a Ritron wireless callbox programmed to the manager’s two-way radio.
Callbox – Defined
A callbox is a fixed-location radio used by those without a radio to communicate to those with a radio. Ritron offers callboxes that may be deployed wirelessly – they’re battery powered, meaning complete versatility regarding placement, with no trenching to run wires.
Two-Way Radio
In the scenario involving the self-storage facility above, Ritron recommended using the NT Series Analog radio. This radio works flawlessly with the Q Series Analog Callbox and is fully capable when the customer chooses to expand their network with additional compatible radios.
Additional Applications
What other applications can you think of where adding a callbox to communicate with your two-way radios would be advantageous? Please add to this list: Apartment manager locks the office to show a unit to a customer; Delivery driver shows up at the locked back door; Gated entrance to warehouse facility; Remote parking area to call for maintenance; Hotel valet parking; College campus walking path or parking area; Retail lumberyard; Golf course bag drop; Propane tank filling station; Construction site office or entrance . . . there are many more!
