Door & Environmental Sensor

Introduction

Door & Environmental Sensors is an end-to-end reefer management solution. It gives fleets real-time visibility into refrigerated assets by combining door, temperature, and humidity monitoring in a single device. 

What’s New?

  • Door & Environmental monitoring: Monitor door open/close states (swing and roll-up) plus temperature and humidity for each reefer zone with a single hardware device.
  • Configurable alerts: Create Reefer Temperature and Door Open alerts to notify teams via email, SMS, or in‑product notifications when doors are left open too long, or reefer temperature falls outside a specified range.
  • Historical reporting: Use Reefer Activity and Door Sensor Events reports to analyze historical temperature, humidity, and door status data for audits, claims, and operational review.

How does this help our customers?

  • End-to-end reefer monitoring visibility: Door and Environmental Sensors provide correlated door, temperature, and humidity data across trailers, box trucks, and vans, feeding a single Reefer Monitoring experience in the Motive platform. Real-time alerts on unexpected door activity or temperature excursions help teams act before product is lost, while unified views across asset types reduce blind spots and simplify day-to-day operations.
  • Streamline compliance, audits, and claims: Reefer Activity and Door Sensor Events reports provide historical temperature, humidity, and door status data that can be exported (PDF/CSV) to support audits and load claims. A unified history for each asset reduces manual data collection and documentation overhead.
