Growing our finished goods stock. We've started producing new cabinet models

Getting ready for beach season

Over the holidays, we managed to grow our stock of finished goods: automated lockers for beaches, phone charging stations, equipment for setting up internet access points, parcel terminals, and vending machines. Preparations for the beach season are in full swing.

Even though we regularly warn everyone about production timelines, a lot of clients still put things off almost until the season begins. Then they start chasing us, pushing us to hurry.

Why ordering early matters

As a result, we don't have enough time to properly test the equipment or check how it performs in the field. The outcome: the equipment arrives on site, and the first week ends up full of glitches. Not a pleasant situation for anyone.

That's why we strongly recommend securing your spots and placing your order well in advance. Give us the time to calmly test the equipment and ship it out in fully working condition. It's also worth keeping in mind that the cabinets go through a rough journey over bad roads, and sometimes get moved from truck to truck several times along the way.

All that shaking on the road has a negative effect on the electronic components inside the lockers. That's why, once the equipment is installed on site, it needs some time for commissioning. This usually takes a couple of days, during which everything gets tested in real conditions. A technician stays close by to catch any bugs in how the parcel terminals operate, and only then is the equipment put into service.

The role of technical maintenance

It's important to understand that MVK MASH lockers and parcel terminals are technically complex, industrial-grade equipment. We designed them so a mid-level technician can handle the day-to-day operation, but without one, the equipment simply won't run properly. Sometimes it takes taking apart a lock to fix the mechanism, replacing paper in the receipt printer, cleaning damp bills out of the bill acceptor, restarting the system, and so on.

As the manufacturer, we provide full documentation for servicing the cabinet. We can also run a consultation and help you find a technician with the right skill level. We're always ready to help fine-tune the equipment and fix any issues, supporting the growth of your business built on parcel terminals and other MVK MASH solutions.

We're available 24/7. Get in touch.
