GateKeyper
Read full descriptionHide full description
GateKeyper is a powerful but easy-to-use hardware + front- & back-end software solution for securing vehicles and other equipment against unsafe and unauthorized operation. This scalable system is ideal for any size company that utilizes personnel and equipment. GateKeyper's patented operator authorization system provides invaluable benefits. Before each time an operator that is authorized by your company can access the equipment, the GateKeyper system requires the operator to answer questions on the GateKeyper mobile app that you have created and assigned to the equipment and operator via the system's intuitive backend management platform. If and only if the questions are successfully answered will the Bluetooth-enabled "GateKeyper Interlock" hardware device unlock the asset for use (i.e., allow the ignition to be started). These app-based "tests" on a phone or tablet ensure that the operator is properly qualified and in a proper state to operate the equipment, thus helping to ensure the operator's safety and protect your company's legal and financial well-being. GateKeyper can also simply be used as a security system to make sure an unauthorized person is not able to use or steal your assets. You will have a detailed log on the management platform of all equipment access to easily verify that only authorized, trained, and/or properly ready operators have been using your equipment. Whether your company utilizes specialized construction or utility equipment or is simply moving freight, the easy to install, set up, and learn GateKeyper system is a great way to protect people, assets, and your company.
