The solution is a process whereby a universal key is used in place of a token. This universal key, as a token would do, releases a unique locking key from the locker. The universal key, labeled for tracking, is borrowed for use at the location. It is used in place of a token any number of times and then is returned after usage is completed. This process relies on a unique mechanism within each locker that handles the key that is used in place of a token and the key that secures the locker. The invention also allows an inexpensive method for a location to keep track of who has rented which locker and allows tracking of how long it is used. Furthermore, the user has the advantage of being able to reuse the universal key in different lockers prior to returning it. This advancement on the ordinary token locker creates clear advantages over current methods and can create employment opportunity that adds a human touch in the handling of the delivery and return of the universal key being used in place of a token.
