Firm introduces “stealthy” container lock

   A Redmond, Ore., company announced a new system for locking containers, truck trailers and railcars for shippers of high-value goods.
   InteliTRAILER Inc. said its new product, the InteliGUARD Locking System, is an armored lock that is positioned inside the transportation equipment. The locks are opened using a keyless entry system — either with handheld transmitter used at the receiving location or by satellite from a remote location.
   InteliTRAILER President Chief Executive Officer Ramy Louis said the company had been developing the product for two years and is focusing its marketing on shippers of high value products such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, alcoholic beverages, and expensive food.
   The locking systems, which are built from stainless steel and are bulletproof, have a base prices of $3,495 to $3,995. The higher priced systems include features such as GPS tracking worldwide, awareness of unit security status (whether doors are open or closed), temperature monitoring and damage intelligence. The company said the locks can be installed in any size or type of door.
