Frequently asked questions — answered honestly
The questions fleet managers ask us most often — sorted by topic.
General
Does Mobile Easykey work with every forklift brand?
Yes. Mobile Easykey is manufacturer-independent — the hardware is retrofitted to vehicles of any brand, including in mixed fleets. When you replace a vehicle, it simply moves with you.
Can the system be retrofitted?
Yes, retrofitting is the standard case: the hardware is installed on your existing vehicles — from a single forklift to a complete mixed fleet.
How long does implementation take?
You can start small: begin with smart lock and MEKM smart on part of your fleet and then expand module by module. [Typical project duration depending on fleet size — to be added by the customer.]
Technology & data
Where is our data stored?
On your own server within your company — no cloud. GDPR-compliant, with a data protection concept, roles & rights and data minimization.
Which interfaces are available?
REST API and VDI/MEK interface for ERP and system integration; depending on the application, data is transmitted via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular/GPS or infrared.
What happens in areas of the hall without radio coverage?
The modules work autonomously on the vehicle: access control and data recording also work without a connection; the data is buffered and transmitted as soon as the radio connection is restored.
Purchase & rental
Buy or rent — which is right for us?
Both are possible: one-time purchase (durable hardware, 10 years of use with no follow-up costs), leasing over 60 months, or EasyRENT rental with a minimum term of just 6 months.
What does Mobile Easykey cost?
That depends on fleet size and the modules you choose — we put together your package individually. The free fleet analysis provides a first assessment.
Is the system also available for small fleets?
Yes. The system is modular and scales from a few vehicles to a corporate fleet — you can get started with smart lock and the MEKM smart software.
