News in IMA​

The professional industry portal TZB-info has published an article titled “Mobile phones under lock and key: smart lockers as a quiet helper for schools”, focusing on the upcoming changes related to mobile phone use in schools and practical ways to ensure their safe storage during the school day.

Effective October 1, 2026, Ing. Ondřej Marek has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of IMA.

We have successfully delivered and commissioned a system of 250 smart locker locks powered by imaLOCKER at the new building of ZŠ Bílá School in Prague 6.

Instead of using traditional keys, students unlock their lockers with the same identification credential they use to enter the school building. This eliminates issues related to lost keys, replacement locks, and key administration.

Electronic imaLOCKER OSL.03-L locks now support smartphone access via NFC. In addition to RFID cards and tags, users can conveniently unlock lockers using their mobile phones.
