Hornady Security is making it easier for safe owners to upgrade their security with the new VEXIS Safe Upgrade Kit. Rather than purchasing an entirely new safe, owners of compatible models can now add advanced palm vein recognition technology to their existing setup.
The retrofit system includes a VEXIS biometric keypad, swingbolt locking mechanism and connecting cable assembly. Using near-infrared imaging, the technology reads unique vein patterns beneath the skin to verify authorized users in less than one second. Biometric information is encrypted and stored locally, without being uploaded or shared externally.
The upgrade also provides multiple access options, including a keypad PIN and mechanical key backup. Compatibility extends to first-generation Hornady Mobilis safes and select locking systems from SecuRam, LA GARD and Sargent & Greenleaf.
Hornady provides installation guides and video instructions to help determine compatibility. A certified locksmith must perform the installation to maintain the product warranty.
With a listed price of $279.99, the VEXIS Safe Upgrade Kit offers existing safe owners an opportunity to add modern biometric security without replacing their current safe.
