Bluetooth Beacons for Indoor Tool & Equipment Tracking

BLE Beacons are the ideal indoor tracking solution for workshops, depots, service vans, and facilities where GPS signals cannot reach. MapTrack’s Bluetooth devices—including the highly reliable BLE beacon for tool tracking in workshops—deliver precise proximity data, multi-year battery life, and rugged industrial housings suitable for heavy-use environments. Perfect for tracking tools, equipment, parts, and portable gear, BLE Beacons provide effortless visibility into asset movement and location within indoor spaces. When detected by the MapTrack mobile app or BLE gateway-enabled GPS trackers, beacons require no pairing, configuration, or wiring—simply deploy and track instantly. This makes them a scalable, low-power, cost-effective solution for operations that manage hundreds of tools or indoor assets. With seamless MapTrack integration, businesses can perform rapid tool audits, verify asset presence, prevent loss, and maintain organised workflows across workshops, depots, and technician vehicles.
