Dubai Bank Tijori Facility

Customers are authenticated by a palm reader. Dubai Bank has become the first bank in the region to launch a fully automated state-of-the-art safe deposit locker facility - 'Tijori' - that can be accessed 24-hours a day, 7 days a week.

Dubai Bank has opened the doors to what it describes as 'a state-of-the-art safe deposit locker facility.' The automated facility known as Tijori, utilises a host of security checks to authenticate customers, including a biometric palm scan, and security boxes are dispatched courtesy of a 'robot' in the back end facility.

The facility, which is located outside Hall 1 at the World Trade Centre in Dubai, is open on a 24x7 basis, as opposed to the 8am to 1pm hours of other local facilities, says Fadi Matar, head of marketing & public relations with Dubai Bank.

Additionally, the facility will have a physical security presence, in the form of security guards, while alarms will sound if customers are in strong rooms for longer than 20 minutes. Furthermore, security cameras have been installed around the facility to provide customers with different views of the action occurring in and around Tijori.

Dubai Bank launches 'Tijori' - state-of-the-art, palm recognition, 24-hour, safe deposit locker facility.
