Barry Schofield, inventor of the Zenloc Portable Security Alarm (http://www.zenloc.com) and CEO of Zenloc Security Systems, initially created the alarm to address the growing problem of freight theft, drawing on his extensive experience as a security consultant in the freight industry. Its primary function was to be a container alarm to protect the sealed doors of containers being shipped by road, rail or sea. The alarm has found a great deal of success in this arena since its launch, but over and above this, the benefits of its portable and stand-alone nature have become clear and extended its appeal to a wider audience.

There are a number of facets of the Zenloc Portable Security Alarm that make it unlike any container alarm that has come before. It is entirely stand alone and does not rely on any electrical systems, which means that just one small alarm and a hand-held receiver is all that is needed to adequately protect goods or cargo. The receiver itself is another departure from the norm as it allows the goods to be protected without the close proximity of the vehicles driver. They simply attach the self-arming alarm and it is automatically activated and keep the hand-held receiver with them in the knowledge that they will receive a warning tone on it if there is any security breach, even if they are metres away. As soon as the driver is out of the 300 metres range (i.e. is a good distance away from his vehicle and the goods inside), the receiver will register a warning sound to inform him of this fact. This provides far more driver protection, allowing him to be able to deal with any attempted theft without putting him in personal danger.

Both these facets make the Zenloc Portable Security Alarm more than just a container alarm. It is inherently a magnetic alarm but the addition of newly designed mounting plates extends its versatility for use on non-metallic items and structures. This means that it can be used in a huge variety of instances: to protect caravans; horseboxes; plant machinery; vehicles containing valuable tools which have to be left unmanned at night; static containers on construction sites which contain valuable tools and materials; garage or warehouse doors - the list is just about endless. In each case, it is the portability of the alarm that is of such benefit. A portable alarm allows for a flexibility and versatility of use that is impossible to find with standard alarms. Add to this the fact that the reliability of this alarm protects goods to the same level as hugely costly and intricate integrated electrical alarm systems but at a fraction of the cost, and you begin to realise why the demand for this portable alarm has increased across industries.
