A smart container lock is an IoT padlock with GPS, Bluetooth and cellular connectivity that lets fleet operators lock, unlock and monitor cargo containers remotely. It sends tamper, geofence and battery alerts in real time and integrates with AIS-140 VLTD devices.
A GPS lock combines a hardened mechanical shackle with a GPS module, SIM/eSIM and a rechargeable battery. It reports its live location to a cloud dashboard and can only be opened via OTP, BLE app or backend approval, often gated by a geofence.
BLE-only padlocks are entry-level. GPS + Keypad + BLE locks and PESO-certified locks for hazardous cargo are priced on quote and depend on volume, connectivity plan and certifications. Contact SafeObuddy for fleet pricing.
For high-value, long-haul cargo, a GPS + Keypad + BLE padlock integrated with an AIS-140 VLTD device gives the strongest protection — live location, geofence breach alerts, tamper detection and remote unlock control.
AIS-140 is an Indian standard requiring commercial vehicles to be fitted with a Vehicle Location Tracking Device (VLTD), panic button and emergency communication. SafeObuddy VLTD devices are AIS-140 and ARAI certified.
