This present invention relates to a firearm storage system comprised of a headboard cabinet for concealing firearms, ammunition and other items of value. Portions of the firearm storage system are quickly and securely repositionable between a concealed position and an open position, thereby giving the user quick access to his or her firearms in a time of need. More specifically, the secure headboard or cabinet includes an electronic lift that may be controlled by a wireless activator that raises a concealed portion of the cabinet upwards, thereby revealing the drawers or cabinets containing the firearms.

A system for securing contents in a container that can include a housing, at least one electromechanically operated security door securing access to the housing and a control panel for receiving input to release the electromechanically secured door from the housing. Communications components, alarms and cameras can also be associated with the housing to facilitate its security and operation and can also adapt it for access and/or package receipt (delivery) by a third party, and overall preservation and security of contents stored therein. Heating and cooling system components can maintain contents of valuable contents held within the housing at a select temperatures.

A dial ring assembly for an electromechanical combination lock includes a housing configured to be mounted on an exterior of a securable enclosure, a dial rotatably disposed on the housing, the dial being rotatable about a dial axis for use in connection with entry of a combination, a lever rotatably disposed on the housing, the lever being rotatable about a lever axis, an external generator disposed in the housing, the external generator being configured to generate electrical energy through rotation of an external generator shaft of the external generator, and a gear train disposed in the housing and operatively connecting the dial, the lever, and the external generator shaft such that rotation of the dial rotates the external generator shaft to produce electrical energy and rotation of the lever rotates the external generator shaft to produce electrical energy.

A delivery lockbox assembly includes a lock box which has a recess to accommodate a foundation of a building. The lock box has a front entry which is positioned outside of the building to facilitate a parcel to be delivered into the lock box. The lock box has a back entry which is positioned within the building thereby facilitating the back entry to be accessible to an occupant of the building for retrieving the parcel. A locking unit is integrated into the front entry inhibit the parcel from is removed from the lock box by an unauthorized person. the locking unit has an access unit is integrated into the locking unit wherein the access unit is configured to be manipulated by the delivery person. The locking unit is in remote communication with a personal electronic device to alert the occupant that the parcel has been delivered into the lock box.

A method for operating a locking system comprising an electronic key and an electronic lock and a central unit which in locking operation is used locally separately from the electronic key and the electronic lock, wherein in the method an external authorization code is generated by the central unit by means of an authorization code determination program, the external authorization code is transferred to the electronic key and the external authorization code is saved in a memory by the electronic key, wherein, on interaction of the electronic key with the electronic lock, the external authorization code is read out from the memory by the electronic lock and is checked by a processor of the electronic lock in that, using an internal authorization code determination program, the processor itself determines an internal authorization code and compares it with the external authorization code received by the electronic key and wherein, in the event of the determined internal authorization code being identical to the transferred external authorization code, the processor permits an opening process.

A smart locker includes electronics to operate a user interface, including a keypad, and to receive user commands via the keypad to lock or unlock the smart locker with an electronic lock. The smart locker also receives primary input power and provides direct charging power and wireless charging power for charging electronic devices. The smart locker also is capable of receiving secondary input power to operate the electronic lock in the absence of the primary input power.

A transport container for secure transport of packages. In one embodiment, the transport container includes a body, a cover, a cover lock, a locking bar, and an electronic controller. The cover is coupled to the body. The cover is movable from a closed state covering the opening to an open state. The cover lock is configured to engage the cover and keep the cover in the closed state. The locking bar is coupled to the base. The locking bar is configured for attachment to anchor points. The electronic controller is electrically coupled to the cover lock and to the locking bar. The electronic controller is configured to adjust the cover lock between a locked state and an unlocked state. The electronic controller is also configured to adjust the locking bar between the locked state and the unlocked state.

Systems and methods for providing a wireless lock system include a locking device wherein the locking device comprises a retractable bolt and a wireless communication transceiver. The systems and methods can also include a bolt catch that is configured to couple with the retractable bolt, wherein, when coupled, the bolt and locking device are locked into a static position relative to the bolt catch. A keypad programmable with a plurality of combination buttons and a wireless communication transceiver can be configured to communicate with the bridge wirelessly. The bolt then protrudes from the locking device to couple with the bolt catch and decouples from the bolt catch and recedes into the locking device in response to one or more wireless signals received from a wireless device. A wireless communication bridge device may also be utilized to provide additional wireless communication links to further devices to expand user reach and interoperability.

A remote access locking system and transportable secure containers are provided with a wireless key fob and optional tamper alarm, location transponder and reversible coupling to secure the container to a vehicle element or to a mounting plate that is fixed to the vehicle. The wireless fob sends wireless command signals to a controller that authenticates the signal and locks or unlocks the container door. The controller may also have a sound generator configured to produce a characteristic chirp when the lock is locked or unlocked by the controller that is different from the vehicle door chirp. The wireless fob for the container may stand alone or have a coupling joining the container fob with a conventional wireless entry fob for a vehicle. The system may also use secondary security measures such as RFID tags for two step authentication.

A method of operating/renting keyless motor vehicles includes configuring a user's smartphone to wirelessly communicate with the security systems of at least a selected keyless vehicle, whereby the user's smartphone can transmit a digital key to the security system of a keyless vehicle to permit operation thereof. A digital key for a selected keyless vehicle is transmitted to the user's smartphone, and the user is provided with an authorization code that can be used to gain entry into the selected vehicle. The user enters the authorization code using the user input device of the selected keyless vehicle, and the user's smartphone then transmits the digital key to the security system of the selected keyless vehicle. The user can enter and operate the selected vehicle without receiving a conventional key and/or key fob.
