Gallagher Access Control & Smart Lockers: Integration Guide

Gallagher is one of the leading access control platforms deployed across UK corporate, healthcare and government environments. If your organisation runs Gallagher, you already have a robust foundation for physical security — but that foundation typically does not extend to locker management.

This guide explains how STSL GoTo smart locks and kiosks integrate with Gallagher, and what that integration delivers in practice.

The locker gap in Gallagher environments

Gallagher controls doors, barriers and secure areas effectively. Lockers, however, are frequently managed separately — with physical keys, standalone PIN systems or third-party locker software that operates in isolation from the main access control platform.

This creates several problems. Staff carry multiple credentials. Locker access events are invisible in Gallagher reporting. When a cardholder is deactivated in Gallagher, their locker access may remain active. Compliance teams cannot produce a unified audit trail covering both doors and lockers.

How GoTo integrates with Gallagher

STSL’s GoTo Lock and GoTo Kiosk connect to Gallagher through a certified integration, allowing locker credentials to be managed through the same Gallagher cardholder database that controls door access.

• Staff use their existing Gallagher card to access their locker — no additional credential required
• GoTo Lock access events are logged and visible within Gallagher reporting
• When a Gallagher card is deactivated, locker access is revoked simultaneously
• Temporary and contractor credentials are managed consistently across doors and lockers
• Compliance reporting covers the full estate — doors and lockers — from one interface

GoTo Kiosk with Gallagher

GoTo Kiosk authenticates users against the Gallagher cardholder database and can issue or update credentials directly. For organisations running high-volume ID issuance — universities, NHS trusts, large corporates — this eliminates the manual administration that typically falls to reception teams and reduces queues, errors and security delays.

GoTo Secure — unified reporting

GoTo Secure provides a centralised dashboard for locker management across all sites. For Gallagher customers, locker data integrates with the wider Gallagher reporting environment — providing the unified audit trail that compliance and security teams require, without running separate systems in parallel.

Implementation

STSL’s integration with Gallagher is certified and production-proven across UK deployments in healthcare, corporate and public sector environments. Implementation follows a straightforward process: GoTo Secure connects to the Gallagher system, cardholder data synchronises, and GoTo Lock units retrofit onto existing lockers with minimal disruption. STSL’s UK-based team manages the full implementation and provides ongoing support and maintenance.
