Default Radio transmissions into metal building

I always thought a communications consultant was in knowledge in the field
of communications, maybe he needs to work for Mc Donald's.
Lets see, if their last location was just outside of the building before
they drove inside lets say they must still be there.

I am a consultant for an AVL (automatic vehicle location system)
system used by the Southeastern counties of Michigan. The system is
used on winter maintenance vehicles and works on 900 MHz. The
vehicles are often stored overnight in metal buildings where it is
difficult to obtain transceiver communication from the AVL system. Is
there a low cost (possibly passive) way to port 900 MHz radio
transmissions into these buildings?

Thanks,

Yes, mobile phone companies use such devices.
