Introduction

For the past 2 years our team has worked hard to develop the next generation of Seguratainer patented locks for shipping containers.

We have made them stronger and designed new models to fit the different use cases you face every day.

We have also now launched a renewed browser-based management platform for remote access of all your containers and trucks.

In fact, you can now monitor all your container locks from your laptop. You can also create time and geolocation and time rules (when and where to open the locks) with a few clicks, or issue unique digital keys in seconds. And, of course, you have a full 24/7 audit trail (history) of each lock and key.  

Finally, we bring you a revamped Mobile App -dubbed as NFC Digital Key: your smartphone is the only key you will need! Seguratainer keys are powered by NFC technology: smart, safe, wireless, and fast.

 
 


The Locks

Here are short introductions for each model:

The Seguratainer Claw Lock

External and portable, it is now equipped with improved internal mechanisms as well as a electrophoretic paint coatings (to provide high corrosion resistance).

We also bring you the evolution of the traditional lock box: Seguratainer Smart Lock Box (internal, fixed) takes an existing locking concept and adds a more secure locking mechanism that can withstand up to 9 tons of pressure.

The Seguratainer Halt Lock

Internal and fixed, it has evolved (and changed name!). It is now easier to install. It also fits into smaller budgets use cases that still require a discreet internal lock.

The Seguratainer Slam Lock

Internal, fixed, this container locks is installed inside the container and protected by the doors themselves, making the doors virtually unbreakable. The Seguratainer Slam Lock, with the smart features Seguratainer provides, is the most advanced cargo theft prevention.

Locks for trucks

Some of the Seguratainer locks have been specifically modified and have their own truck lock version (contact our team for more info).

GPS Integration in container locks

Seguratainer locks for containers and trucsk can serve as beacons for GPS tracking: we have left space inside the locks to include GPS receivers. Just place your existing trackers or ask us for advice or to be connected with our partners.

You can find all our locks in the Seguratainer locks page.

NFC: KEYLESS TECHNOLOGY

Forget traditional keys!

All our locks use NFC technology for access control: your smartphone is the key to open and close the container doors. You can create unique digital keys in seconds and send them to authorized personnel. All modern smartphones include an NFC antenna and the user validation at the lock takes approximately 5 seconds.

NFC (Near Field Communication) is the same technology used for payments from your phone or your touchless banking card: immediate, secure, and totally keyless.

The Seguratainer NFC mobile app is user friendly and allows you to open the doors without the need of physical keys: no more keys lost, stolen or forged. Reduce your costs and keep a full access control.


24/7 audit trail

All actions from all users are registered: you have a 24/7 overview of your locks and keys.

Total Remote Access Control of Your Containers

You can access the history of the locks and monitor all fleet activity thanks to the renewed Seguratainer browser-based management platform. You can see in seconds and from your laptop who has accessed the locks, when and where.

If you are already using a fleet management system you can easily integrate Seguratainer’s into your existing platform. Ask our team how.

With Seguratainer, you can also create rules based on time and geolocation to restrict the opening times and locations for each lock (or for the whole fleet).

Should the locks only open between 09:00 and 10:00am? Done.
Should the locks remain closed until reaching their final destination? Done.

You are in control.
