WEIMI 5-Locker Fishing Rod Rental Machine Track Pickup Return and Hire Time
WEIMI · Rod hire, from pickup to return
When did the rod go out?
When did it come back?
Let the locker track the rental time.
This 5-locker fishing rod rental machine gives fishing-lake operators a clear hire process: card authorization, rod pickup, code-based return and hourly fee calculation.
Choose the rod fit, payment setup and camera options with WEIMI.
For managed fishing lakes
Keep rod handovers out of your counter queue.
A visitor needs a rod while your team is helping someone else. Later, that rod comes back and someone has to work out the hire time. Move those steps to a fishing rod rental locker, with a code that guides the customer through the return.
Choose a rod. Authorize the card.
The customer reads the rod details and selects an available locker. The credit card receives a deposit hold. After approval, the system creates a four-digit order code and unlocks the assigned door.
The code is needed for the return. Ask about a receipt printer if you want a paper copy.
Take the rod. Close the door.
The customer removes the gear and closes the locker. This starts the hourly rental timer.
A clear start event, instead of a handwritten checkout time.
Enter the code. Put the rod back.
The customer enters the four-digit code, returns the gear to its assigned locker and closes the door. Once the lock engages, the system calculates the rental duration and fee using the hourly rate.
The return and elapsed time stay tied to the rental order.
Return checks
Was the rod put back?
A camera can be fitted inside each locker. AI-assisted recognition helps check whether the user returned the gear. With cameras configured, footage recorded during door opening and closing links to the order ID for review.
Return detection is not a guarantee of condition. Keep a routine check for bent rods, missing parts and equipment that needs cleaning.
PBefore opening a door
Show the rod they are about to rent.
Use the 21.5-inch touchscreen to show rod details. Add the rod length, reel information, included items and your own use instructions. Visitors can check the listing before they authorize their card.
Self-service fishing rod rental still needs clear venue rules and help details. Make it easy for a customer to reach your team if a return does not complete.

Inventory and email alerts
Check rod inventory in the backend. Low-stock emails flag shortages, while machine fault emails help your team arrange a check.
Five doors. Check the rod fit.
Match the locker to your rods and reels.
The cabinet measures W156 × D40 × H185 cm. These are outside dimensions, not usable locker dimensions. Send the stored rod length, reel size and other items included in each rental so the fit can be checked.

Before you set up rod hire
Is this the same as the 10-compartment rod rental model?
No. This page covers a five-locker cabinet measuring W156 × D40 × H185 cm. Review this configuration separately from other models.
Is the deposit charged as a purchase?
The described process uses a credit-card pre-authorization hold. The hire fee is calculated from rental duration and hourly rate after return. Confirm settlement and hold-release rules with the payment setup.
When does the rental timer start?
It starts after the customer takes the gear and closes the door. During return, the system checks lock engagement and calculates the duration and fee.
Are cameras included in every locker?
Cameras can be installed in each locker. Specify the camera and AI-assisted return-check configuration in your quotation.
Can AI confirm the rod is undamaged?
The confirmed function helps detect whether gear has been returned. It does not establish the condition of every part. Operators should inspect and maintain their equipment.
Will a fully assembled rod fit?
Send the stored rod length, reel dimensions and equipment arrangement. Outside cabinet dimensions alone do not confirm the usable locker space.
