01 · Use case
Cargo trailers & long-haul fleets
Permanently mounted on trailer doors to stop in-transit pilferage across multi-day routes — geo-fenced unlock only at authorised stops.
Fixed Smart Lock System
SafeObuddy Fixed Container / Cargo / Trailer Smart Lock
A permanently mounted intelligent electronic locking system for commercial vehicles, trailers, containers, tankers and cargo bodies. Unlike battery-operated padlocks, it is hardwired to the vehicle power supply and continuously connected to the control platform — providing real-time security, monitoring and remote access control with a battery backup that keeps transmitting even if the vehicle battery is disconnected.

FAQs
How is this different from a smart padlock?+
The Fixed Smart Lock is permanently mounted and hardwired to the vehicle's 12V/24V supply, so it stays online continuously without charging. It also acts as a vehicle security hub for multiple sensors (door, fuel cap, vibration, temperature, panic), which a portable padlock cannot.
What happens if the vehicle battery is disconnected?+
An internal rechargeable battery takes over and keeps transmitting tamper and power-disconnect alerts to the control room, and supports emergency unlock.
Can the lock be opened only at the destination?+
Yes — geofence-based unlock ensures the lock only releases when the vehicle reaches the approved GPS delivery point, optionally with OTP and customer confirmation.
Which sensors can be integrated?+
Door, cargo bay, vibration, impact, motion, fuel cap / level, temperature, humidity, light, shock, panic / SOS, container seal, tanker valve and hazardous-cargo sensors.
