Automate the Tool Crib or Storeroom You Already Have
Keep the room. Lose the clerk, the after-hours shrinkage, and the paper sign-out.
A manned crib runs on a clerk who covers one shift, an open door the other two, and a sign-out sheet nobody enforces. SecuraCrib converts the existing room to maglock and badge entry with cameras, attendant-free, retrofitted in about a shift. SecuraStock vending and SecuraLocker handle high-velocity and high-value items; SecuraSmart ties every pull to a person and a work order.
three challenges every crib operation faces
Clerk labor, after-hours shrinkage, and zero usage data
1. Crib clerk labor.
A staffed crib runs $65K to $80K per attendant per year fully loaded, and one attendant covers one shift. A 24/6 operation either pays for three shifts of coverage or leaves the room open, which is where most loss happens.
2. After-hours, open-door shrinkage.
The hours the crib is unstaffed are the hours inventory leaves with no record. Uncontrolled cribs commonly run 10% to 20% annual shrinkage, and the variance is invisible until a count forces it.
3. No usage data to act on.
Paper sign-out, when it happens at all, never makes it into a system. Planning cannot see consumption by job, shift, or area, so stockouts and over-ordering both repeat with nothing to correct them.
the securastock crib stack
The fully automated room, plus the speed, control, and tracking you add on top.
SecuraCrib – the fully automated room.
Convert the existing crib to an electromagnetic lock, control panel, badge or PIN entry, and up to 32 cameras. This is the fully automated end of the range: no attendant, every entry and movement logged, retrofitted in about a shift.
SecuraStock vending – control of the critical items.
Not everything in the room needs the same control. Put the high-value and critical items – calibrated tools, controlled spares, anything you cannot afford to lose – in a SecuraStock vending unit inside the room. The room stays open for bulk stock; the critical items come out one at a time, badge-issued, tied to a person, with a hard limit.
SecuraScales + Smart Bins – speed and accuracy.
Add weight-based counting on the parts nobody wants to hand-count: fasteners, fittings, terminals, consumables. The scale counts as fast as someone sets a bin down and it does not miscount at 3 a.m. Cycle counts that took a shift drop to minutes, and the number is right.
Two ways to log who took what – both feed SecuraSmart.
SecuraScan handheld: faster at the point of pickup, and you do not have to manage an app on every worker's phone – best for high-traffic rooms and contractor crews. SecuraSmart mobile app: ties every transaction cleanly to a named individual, and it is the cheaper way in with no scanner hardware – best for smaller teams and tighter budgets. Most rooms run both: the app for regular staff, a shared scanner at the door for everyone else.

A plant converting a 3-shift manned crib
From clerk-plus-open-door to attendant-free control, first ten months.
A multi-shift plant ran a central crib staffed on days, open on nights and weekends, with a sign-out clipboard. Crib labor was a full-time day clerk plus partial second-shift coverage, shrinkage was estimated in the mid-teens on roughly $1.9M of crib inventory, and there was no consumption data of any kind.
The rollout: a SecuraCrib conversion of the existing room with maglock, badge entry, and cameras; SecuraStock vending at the window for the highest-velocity consumables; SecuraLocker for calibrated and high-value tools; SecuraSmart tying every transaction to a work order.
Result after ten months: the day clerk role was redeployed and after-hours access became fully controlled. Shrinkage fell from an estimated 15% to under 3%, roughly $270K recovered. For the first time the operation had consumption by job and shift, which surfaced and removed several chronic stockouts.

Frequently asked questions
Six questions operations and materials leaders ask before scheduling a demo.
Do we have to build a new room?+
No. The SecuraCrib conversion uses the room you already have. It adds an electromagnetic lock, control panel, badge or PIN entry, and cameras, and is typically retrofitted in a single shift.
How is a Crib Unit different from a Track storeroom?+
A SecuraCrib unit is the fully automated end: maglock, control panel, and cameras, no attendant. A Track storeroom keeps a live attendant and runs on a SecuraTrack tracking station instead of paper. Crib is for unattended control; Track is for rooms that genuinely need a person at the window. Both share the same SecuraSmart data and Track upgrades to Crib later with no data loss.
Should the storeroom use a scanner or the mobile app to log who took what?+
Both work and both feed SecuraSmart; most rooms run both. The SecuraSmart mobile app ties every transaction cleanly to a named individual and is the cheaper way in, with no scanner hardware to buy – best for regular staff and tighter budgets. SecuraScan handhelds are faster at the point of pickup and mean you do not have to manage an app on every worker's phone – best for high-traffic rooms and contractor crews. A common setup is the app for regular staff and a shared scanner at the door for everyone else.
Can we add scales and vending to the room?+
Yes, and most rooms do. SecuraScales weight-based bins add fast, accurate counting on small parts; a SecuraStock vending unit inside the room puts the critical and high-value items under one-at-a-time, badge-issued control while the room stays open for bulk stock.
What does it do to crib labor?+
It removes the need for a dedicated attendant across shifts. Staff are redeployed; the room stays controlled 24/7 with no one at a window.
How long does the conversion take?+
Door hardware, control panel, and readers go in within a shift. Full rollout with vending, scales, and lockers staged in is typically 6 to 10 weeks.
