Steelmates
This is a brand name, though which product is being referred to in your text is another question! Steelmates make automotive parts, including parking sensors.

: I feel sure it is indeed a proper name — though this may be a US document, so maybe a different company.

Steelmate supplies
It is my understanding that Steelmate is a store that provides outdoor storage supplies.

By adding "supplies" we are identifying what Steelmates is. The name "Steelmates" means little to someone not familiar to the store.

Parking Assist System
I think Steelmates is an American brand, seeing as "cell phones" were mentioned. A web search turned up a website for parking assist systems. This seems to also be in keeping with the shopkeeper talking about number plates.
