Abstract: A security system may include a plurality of electronic devices, each having a unique identification (ID) associated therewith and configured to generate a temporary security code based upon the unique ID. The system may further include at least one mobile wireless communications device including a first Near-Field Communication (NFC) circuit, and a mobile controller configured to receive the temporary security code from a given electronic device from among the plurality of electronic devices. The system may also include an access control device associated with a personnel access position and including a second NFC sensor and a security controller. The security controller may be configured to receive the temporary security code from the first NFC sensor via NFC communications, selectively grant personnel access based upon the received temporary security code, and determine the unique ID associated with the given electronic device.

Abstract: A system for protecting vehicle wheels featuring a lug nut component for threading into a wheel; a keyhole disposed in the first end of the lug nut and a threaded second hole disposed in the second end; a sliding component disposed in the first hole biased in an up position and movable to a down position when a key is inserted; a sensor configured to detect the sliding component moving to the down position; a microprocessor operatively connected to the sensor; a transmitter operatively connected to the microprocessor; a receiver operatively connected to a car alarm system, wherein when the sensor detects the sliding component moving to the down position the transmitter sends an alarm signal to the receiver to activate the alarm system.

Abstract: A staple plate formed with a circular opening is mounted on the lid of a footlocker or trunk and a hasp is mounted on the stationary portion of the footlocker, the hasp having a hinged portion provided with a lock assembly which includes a spring-loaded slide bolt and a key-operated lock mechanism for selectively engaging and locking the slide bolt, the hinged portion being swingable into an upright position where the slide bolt is spring-biased into engagement in the circular opening of the staple plate. A finger tab is operably connected to the slide bolt to release the slide bolt from engagement with the staple plate when the slide bolt is not engaged or blocked by the lock mechanism.
