If you have ever "tapped" a card to enter a building, you've likely used HID technology. HID Global is the world leader in trusted identity solutions, producing the readers and credentials (cards/fobs) used by Fortune 500 companies and government agencies. We stock the legendary HID Prox and the high-security iCLASS SE and Seos platforms.
We carry HID Signo Readers, which are designed to be "future-proof" by supporting both traditional proximity cards and mobile credentials via smartphone. Whether you need standard 1326 ProxCard II clamshell cards or specialized HID Mobile Access solutions, Lock Depot provides the genuine, programmed credentials required to keep your facility secure.
When ordering HID cards, the Format is critical. Most legacy systems use 26-Bit (H10301), but many large organizations use custom "Corporate 1000" formats. Before ordering, check your system's software or a previous box of cards for the Facility Code and Starting Number. Getting these right is the only way to ensure your new cards work with your existing readers.
Genuine HID credentials and readers ship from our warehouses across America. Place your order before 2 PM EST for same-day dispatch.
