Vehicle Logging Systems

Many large organisations operate multiple vehicles, tractor units and trailers, all of which require logging in and out

of main supply and operation depots.


This will normally entail a security guard or site co-ordinator manually entering registration or plant/trailer identifier
numbers onto a manual sheet with the information being correlated at a later time, an inefficient and time
consuming method that makes the immediate identification of the status of the vehicle or trailer difficult to achieve.

One solution is to fit GPS trackers, however, these can be very costly when multiplied by every vehicle, trailer,
tractor unit and plant item and these trackers ultimately require power, not an issue with a vehicle but a continuous
problem with some plant or trailers.

UKWT can supply and install a system that will log each vehicle, trailer and piece of plant into and out of the site

automatically, loading that information onto an easily searchable database that can, at the push of a button, give

the following information


• Last known position (in or out)
• What equipment or vehicles are on or off site
• Times that the vehicle or plant arrived or left

The system can also be configured to

• Sound an alarm if a "barred" vehicle or item attempts to leave
• Email a user (connection to internal email server required) if a   specified item enters or leaves
• Automatically open barriers upon detection
• Raise "anti theft" bollards if an unauthorised vehicle attempts to leave

The system works by the fitting of a minimum (no maximum amount) of hands free proximity readers, 1 at each
entrance, 1 at each exit. Each vehicle, trailer or item of plant is then fitted with a proximity RFID tag which requires
no power of any type. The tag does NOT have to be fitted in the windscreen, it simply has to be on the exterior of
the vehicle (or behind glass) on the same side of the vehicle as the reader (normally the drivers side) in a location
that will pass within 4 metres of the external reader. Heavy Duty tags specifically designed for this purpose are
fitted.

When the RFID tag is detected by the system, the vehicle will be logged "in" or "out" and is uniquely identified by
its dedicated tag. This information is then fed into a database that recognises the vehicle and its location which can
then be interrogated by any authorised user.

Once the main system is installed, adding additional vehicles or items can be done by the user, with each additional
RFID tag only costing (as of March 2022) £20.00 plus VAT and this is easily fitted and configured by the client.

As the system is based upon our Access Control software, it can be used as the basis for a future site wide system
to control everything from doors to barriers to fuel pumps to roller shutters.
