Protecting Your Valuable Assets with GPS Tracking

Your valuable assets are important to you and using a GPS tracker to monitor them can offer an extra level of peace-of-mind when it comes to their security. At BrickHouse Security, we offer a variety of GPS tracking options to help you keep tabs on your assets, big and small. Our asset tracking devices are designed for a variety of tracking applications depending on what the asset is, where it’s located, the information you want to monitor, and more. Examples of assets that you may wish to monitor using a GPS asset tracking device include: heavy equipment or machinery, tools, personal valuables, antiques, collections, shipping containers, cargo in transit, and more. Our most portable asset tracker, the Spark Nano, is the most popular device for this purpose because it’s extremely portable and rechargeable, and also comes in a different version that features an extended battery and magnetic case for easy use.  

Because many large assets are stationary in storage or traveling long distances, the GPS tracker you choose for this application will be different from the ones that you would use for vehicle tracking. For example, if you’re monitoring something that you expect to remain in storage, you will likely want a long-life tracker that will send you a notification if unexpected movement is detected but will otherwise require very little maintenance such as battery charging. If you want to monitor the movements of a shipping container on a ship or traveling overland, a satellite tracker may be the best choice for you so that you can expect to not lose connection to the device even when it’s out of typical cellular range. If your assets are traveling shorter distances within cellular ranges, the Spark Nano with extended battery life and magnetic mounting case may be the perfect solution.
