Keep an accurate inventory of every padlock, hasp, tag, key, and lockout device used across your operation. This template helps maintenance, safety, facilities, and operations teams track who holds each item, where it is stored, its condition, and when it needs replacement. It replaces paper sign out sheets and scattered spreadsheets with a shared register in Coast.

• Add and Label Hardware
  Create a record for each padlock, hasp, tag, key, or lockout device. Add a unique ID, hardware type, key number, condition, and supporting photo.
• Assign and Track Custody
  Record who holds each item and where it is stored. Update the assignment when hardware is issued, returned, transferred, or placed back in storage.
• Inspect and Replace Equipment
  Review hardware condition on a set schedule. Flag damaged, missing, or retired items and start replacement or purchasing work when action is needed.

2. How can Coast AI help manage lock and tag hardware?
   Coast AI can help build and customize the register, create related inspection or purchasing processes, and answer questions using hardware information stored in Coast. Teams can also capture item details and condition updates through photos or voice input.
3. Can I track hardware by employee or location?
   Yes. Assign each item to an employee, contractor, team, storage cabinet, or site. Update the assignment when the hardware moves or is returned.
