In recent years, technology-driven devices for tracking the use and location of firearms have become more relevant. Among these tactics are the smart RFID-enabled long gun lockers designed for audit trail and reporting. These lockers help law enforcement agencies to monitor and manage the weapons used by their officers. These keyless entry lockers provide secure and controlled access to firearms.
These advancements in forensic science and the development of the national DNA database known as the CODIS, the jobs of law enforcement officers, crime scene investigators, and forensic pathologists have become a little less difficult when it comes to solving crimes. However, law enforcement professionals still face issues with gun control. Unlike CODIS, which helps law enforcement officials match criminals to investigative crimes through the process of DNA comparison, no directory for tracking the whereabouts of guns exists. Working the old-fashioned way to locate firearms takes time that your officers don’t have.
Southwest Solutions Group (SSG) offers smart long gun lockers that equip your officers and law enforcement facilities with secure and smart tracking.
How Smart RFID Capable Long Gun Lockers Work
Our long gun lockers work by keeping an audit log of when each storage unit is accessed. These lockers are designed to enhance the security and tracking of firearms within a department.
How It Works:
- Easy Access: At the end of a long law enforcement shift, officers can deposit their firearms, such as assault rifles and long guns, into their designated lockers. You can access these lockers through pocket-sized, keyless-magnetic badges, that eliminate the use of traditional keys.
- Seamless Data Collection: Access history is then collected by using a hand-held device like a mobile phone. The history is captured when this device is waved at the locker while standing directly in front of it.
- Data Transfer Analysis: The collected data is then transferred to a computer using a USB cable. Then further analysis can be performed using this data.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Tracking: These lockers provide an enhanced physical account for how often each weapon is used and moved. That way everything is always accounted for, therefore enhancing your security.
- Improved Oversight: The detailed history that is provided with these Smart RFID long gun lockers allows managers and supervisors to monitor what is going in and out of which locker. Ensuring that officers are following proper protocol, when stowing their weapons at the end of their shifts.
- Streamlined Reporting: The ability to transfer access data to a computer allows for easy reading and in-depth report analysis. Helping departments generate reliable records, improving transparency and operational efficiency.
By integrating RFID technology into your department, you can significantly enhance the security, accountability, and operational oversight of your weapons management system.

“We were extremely satisfied with the work of Chester last week. His commitment and tireless work ethic allowed us to get the weapon racks installed in three days versus the 5-7 days we thought it was going to take. He finished the job about 1500 on Thursday…I want to commend him and thank him for his honesty and willingness to go the extra mile to make sure the job was done to standard. We appreciate his honesty and dedication.”
“A big THANK YOU goes out to Jim Smith and the entire team at Southwest Solutions Group for our recent move and re-install of our Spacesaver high density storage shelving! We absolutely could not go without the system you provided for us 6 years ago in our new facility. Jim did an excellent job of designing our new layout utilizing all of our existing shelving investment! This job was all accomplished under a very tight time frame and with minimal disturbance to my team. Additionally, I need to mention the fantastic upfront coordination of this project and the clean and successful install by your installers. Thank you again Southwest Solutions Group for standing behind your product for all these years and another job well done!”
“Sir, I just wanted to let you know that Adam and Bryan were probably some of the best guys I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking to. Everything they did was very professional, helpful, and they answered more questions than I’m sure they would ever want. For every single thing I would bother them with, they would always be more than willing to help me out and explain pretty much every aspect of information I needed. Also, we are very happy with these shelving units. They look, feel, and perform so much better than I ever expected. I just wanted to let you know!”
