Traditional Automotive Tool Cabinet, commonly found in educational institutions, Automotive Shops, and workplaces, rely on conventional lock-and-key mechanisms. However, these systems present several limitations that hinder flexibility and user convenience, including being time-consuming, lacking modern features, and offering limited security. This project addresses the need for a more efficient and user-friendly alternative to the traditional Automotive Tool Cabinet. The researchers designed and developed an Automotive tool Cabinet using RFID and IOT system using a prototyping approach and tested its performance in terms of timeliness. Fifty respondents evaluated the system standards. The results revealed that unlocking the Automotive tool Cabinet using a TUP-Manila ID was significantly faster and safer in terms of security and antitheft technology. Additionally, respondents rated the system as “Very Satisfactory” (x̄ = 4.68), particularly in functionality (x̄ = 4.80), Aesthetic (x̄ = 4.53), Workability (x̄ = 4.69), Durability (x̄ = 4.70), Economy (x̄ = 4.68), and Safety (x̄ = 4.69). Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the Automotive Tool Cabinet System using IOT and RFID management and introduces a promising solution through an RFID and IOT system. While the findings are encouraging, further research and refinement are necessary to optimize its potential fully. The project aims to benefit the school community by offering secure and efficient storage of Automotive tools solutions.
