Supra unveils TRAC-Guard padlock for authorised, tracked and remote access

Supra, a renowned global provider of mobile credentialing and entry management systems, has introduced the TRAC-Guard padlock for authorised, secure access to virtually any remote site. Ideal for installations in telecom or utility stations, storage units or other locking points, this Bluetooth-enabled padlock adds convenience and security in place of traditional mechanical or combination locks.

The versatile TRAC-Guard padlock comes ready for use and fits seamlessly into Supra’s TRACcess Manager system to enable mobile access, real-time communications and 24/7 cloud-based management. The padlock allows access to authorised users, giving operators visibility into remote site activity.

“The TRAC-Guard padlock transforms remote operations, delivering online capabilities in remote and offline locations,” said Fayyad Sbaihat, president, Supra. “Having visibility to site activity with real-time control lets operations managers increase workforce efficiency, reduce travel, monitor vendor visits and more.”

Authorised and tracked access control

The padlock enhances security via authorised and tracked access – unlike mechanical keys that can be lost or stolen or combination codes that can be shared. TRAC-Guard padlock operations are protected with layers of security such as individually authorised keys that routinely expire; required individual PIN codes; user permission for each locking point; and encrypted system communications.

“This mobile padlock solution is based on proven mobile-credentialing technology,” said Sbaihat. “Supra key credentialing is deployed across an installed base of more than 3 million Bluetooth-enabled locking devices in multiple industries. This platform, combined with 20 years of mobile credentialing experience, delivers an industry-leading solution.”

Cloud-based TRACcess Manager

Cloud-based, 24/7 TRACcess Manager administration provides a view to access activity from the portal

Cloud-based, 24/7 TRACcess Manager administration provides a view to access activity from the portal, or email alerts or routine reports, to monitor job status, confirm vendor maintenance visits and check the electronic logbook. Setting up mobile keys is quick and easy with permissions delivered in real time to the TRACcess eKEY app. This eliminates the need for staff travel solely for opening gates or doors or providing access to assets such as heavy machinery. Bluetooth communications between the mobile key and the lock enable operations even in areas lacking cellular coverage.

Based in the USA, Supra offers access control, key access, storage devices, ATM solution, and wireless security solutions for real estate, banks, property management, fire departments, automotive, and industrial sectors.
