Tools that walk, and a record that does not

Tools disappear on a busy site — not stolen, mostly, just moved to another job and never brought back. By the time anybody misses the demo saw it has been through three crews and nobody can say which.

The site container key left with a subbie who finished Thursday, and two battery kits are on a job three suburbs away.

Tools walk off site quietly. Replacing them is the cheap part; the delay is not.

Built for keys.
Works for anything you need back.

The usual trouble

What goes wrong, and what happens instead

Three things Construction companies say constantly — and what the register does about each.

1

The saw that went to another site

Signing a tool out to a person takes seconds on a phone at the container door. When it turns up missing you have a name, not a shrug.

2

Replacing what you already own

Most tool budgets are spent buying second copies of things that exist somewhere. A register of what is out and with whom is usually cheaper than the next purchase order.

3

Crews across four sites

Each site keeps its own board, and the office sees all of them — including a tool that has crossed from one site to another, recorded at both ends.

Not only keys

What Construction companies track with it

Anything that leaves a counter and is meant to come back. Each item is its own record, with its own history.

Power tools and battery kits
Site, container and compound keys
Two-way radios and chargers
Plant and vehicle keys
Laser levels and survey gear
How it works

Know who has what. Chase it automatically. See it at a glance.

Know who has what

Every item is signed out to a person — a staff member, a contractor, a tenant, with a phone number. Two taps at the board or on a phone, and the record is made as it happens rather than written up later from memory.

It chases them for you

Anything past its due time texts and emails whoever has it, by itself. Most things come back before anybody in the office has noticed they were late — and nobody has to make the awkward phone call.

See what is out at a glance

One board shows everything that is out, who has it, and how long it has been gone — overdue in red. The question at five o'clock is answered by looking, not by asking everybody in the room.

Try it on your own keys for two weeks

Set up your board, sign a few things out, and see whether the chasing stops. From $39.95 a month afterwards. Cancel any time during the trial, and there is nothing to install.
