Product Description
HPC KEP-5-95 — Fleet Security Key Vault
This is the key vault that fleet managers and locksmiths use to secure a spare key inside a vehicle. You mount it flush under the hood or in the body wall, and the key is there when you need it — without the risk of a magnetic hide-a-key falling off on the highway or getting found by the wrong person.
The vault locks with a high-security 7-pin tubular lock. That's the same type of lock you see on vending machines and commercial equipment — not something you're going to pick open with a ballpoint pen. The body is made from Delrin AF, a thermoplastic that resists weather, corrosion, and road salt. This thing lives under a hood year-round and it needs to survive that.
Dimensions: 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" face with a 3-1/8" depth. Small enough to tuck into a fender well, behind a bumper bracket, or anywhere you've got a few square inches of flat mounting surface. Popular with locksmiths who service commercial fleets, delivery companies, and rental car operations.
The reason fleet operators reach for a hard-mounted vault instead of a magnetic box comes down to two failures: magnets shake loose over rough miles, and anyone who thinks to slap a hand under a bumper finds a hide-a-key in seconds. A flush-mounted KEP bolts in place and presents nothing but a small tubular keyway — unless someone has the key, or knows exactly what they're looking at, it reads as just another fastener.
The “95” in the part number means this unit ships keyed alike to HPC's KA 95 group, so a manager can run one key across an entire fleet instead of juggling a ring of differents. If you need other keying or keyed-different units, call us before ordering and we'll confirm what HPC has available.
Who this is for & when you reach for it
Fleet operators live and die by spare-key access. A driver locks the keys in the cab two states away, or a swing-shift worker takes the only key home — and the vehicle is dead weight until someone solves it. The KEP fleet vault is the locksmith's answer: a hard-mounted, lockable steel-secure vault that holds a spare key on the vehicle itself, so an authorized person with the vault key can recover access in seconds without a tow or a re-key.
This is why fleet managers choose a bolted-in vault over a magnetic hide-a-key box. Magnets shake loose over rough miles and end up on the highway; and anyone who thinks to run a hand under a bumper finds a magnetic box instantly. A flush-mounted KEP presents nothing but a small tubular keyway that reads like just another fastener — and it isn't going anywhere.
Who buys it: Locksmiths servicing delivery, utility, rental, municipal, and commercial fleets; fleet maintenance managers; and operators who want one keyed-alike solution across a yard of vehicles.
Compatibility & keying: The “95” suffix means this unit ships keyed alike to HPC's KA 95 group, so one key can run an entire fleet instead of a ring of differents. If you need a different keyed-alike group or keyed-different units, call us before ordering and we'll confirm what HPC has in stock.
