Smart Container Security Monitoring

Shipping containers used for storage on farms, construction sites, and yards are prime targets for theft. Tools, equipment, and materials worth tens of thousands of dollars can disappear overnight—often without any warning until it's too late.

With container security monitoring powered by DataCell and DataScape, you get instant alerts the moment someone opens or moves your container, giving you the chance to respond before theft occurs.

Real-Time Alerts When It Matters

Stop discovering theft days after it happened. Container security monitoring gives you:

• Instant alerts when a container door is opened
• Movement detection if someone tries to tow or relocate the container
• Tilt sensing that detects tampering or forced entry attempts
• 24/7 monitoring without the need for mains power or internet

Whether your container is in a paddock, on a construction site, or in a storage yard—you'll know immediately if something's wrong.

Protect Your Assets, Protect Your Livelihood

Tool theft costs Australian tradies and farmers an average of $20,000+ per incident when you factor in replacement costs, insurance excess, project delays, and lost productivity.

With DataCell and DataScape, you can protect your investment with affordable, reliable monitoring.

Benefits include:

• Peace of mind knowing your assets are protected
• Faster response times to potential theft
• Evidence for insurance claims and police reports
• Deterrent effect when thieves know containers are monitored
• Potential insurance premium reductions

Smart security = real protection without the complexity.

How It Works

DataCell's security sensor is mounted inside your container. Using precision gyroscope and accelerometer technology, it detects:

• Door opening — Any change in tilt when doors swing open triggers an alert
• Container movement — Detects if someone hooks up and tries to tow the container
• Tamper attempts — Unusual vibration or impact patterns are flagged

When an event is detected, an SMS is sent to your phone within 60 seconds. No app required—just your mobile number.

Built for Remote Locations

Unlike traditional security systems that need mains power and WiFi, DataCell container monitors are designed for anywhere:

• Battery powered — 5+ years life, no external power needed
• Cellular connectivity — Works anywhere with mobile coverage (NB-IoT)
• Weatherproof — Rated for Australian conditions, hot or cold
• Set and forget — No maintenance required after installation
