dc.description.abstract Trailers carry large containers to various destinations in the world. These are manually locked on to trailers as they move through these long distances. Security mainly refers to the safety of a state, organization, property, and individuals against criminal activity. The study was made to analyze the existing trailer locks and the insecurity being experienced currently. The study also focused on creating a background to building an automated lock system for auto-mobiles. Findings showed that there are various container types like the General Purpose containers, the Hard-Top containers and the Open-Top among others. Similarly, the twist locks were the ones revised for this study. The study also discussed the weaknesses of the twist locks, most especially the non-notification on unsecured locks. This causes leads to accidents and wastage of lives and property. The study finally proposed an automated lock system to overcome these weaknesses to some good extent. en_US
