How VEXIS Technology Works

Q&A: VEXIS™ Palm Vein Technology

HOW FAST CAN I OPEN MY SAFE?

VEXIS™ delivers access in about half a second. Simply present your palm and the safe unlocks instantly, giving you quick access when seconds matter most.

IS IT MORE SECURE THAN FINGERPRINT OR FACIAL RECOGNITION?

Palm vein patterns are located beneath the skin and can’t be photographed, copied, or lifted like fingerprints. The system reads live tissue only, and even identical twins have different vein patterns, making VEXIS™ one of the most secure biometric options available.

IS PALM VEIN SCANNING SAFE?

Yes. VEXIS™ uses harmless near-infrared light, similar to the technology in a TV remote. There’s no radiation, no X-rays, and nothing invasive.

WILL IT WORK RELIABLY OVER TIME?

Yes. Unlike fingerprints that can be affected by dirt, dryness, or wear, vein patterns remain stable throughout adulthood and aren’t impacted by lighting or surface conditions.

HOW MANY USERS PER SAFE?

Each VEXIS™ keypad can store up to 10 unique vein patterns. Access data is stored locally on one device, is never shared, uploaded or connected elsewhere.

1. IMPORTANT: Do not store loaded firearms in any safe or lock box. Follow local laws for firearm storage. Check TSA regulations and airline policies before traveling with any portable safe. Check dimensions of your firearm against safe's interior dimensions. Firearm and firearm accessories not included.
