Protect What Protects You: A Guide to Gun Safes
Discover A Gun Safe As Unique As You
Store your firearms in a state-of-the-art gun safe at your Greeley, CO, home or business to keep them protected from theft or unauthorized access. Many gun safes feature a keypad or lock that anyone can open with the code or key, but there are newer, more secured safes on the market today that feature additional biometric readers. Consider increasing the security of your firearms with the technology of modern biometrics.
Biometric technology has improved significantly in recent years, especially with more widespread smartphone usage. Continue reading to learn more about these types of safes and how they can help protect your firearms and loved ones.

How Do Biometric Safes Work?
Every person is unique. A biometric safe uses those unique features to protect your valuables stored inside of it. By using a fingerprint, facial recognition, or a retinal scanner to authenticate and release the safe’s locking mechanism, what’s inside is protected. These biometric scans can be used as a single verification method for access or they are paired with secondary methods of opening the safe like a unique user identification code.
For instance, with a fingerprint scanner, the software is intelligent enough to take a detailed image of your fingerprint and store it for comparison when someone tries to open the safe in the future. These fingerprint images are encrypted and stored digitally stored to protect them from theft. The same data encryption applies to facial and retinal scans as well.
A Better Gun Safe
There are three main reasons to choose a biometric gun safe:
Simplicity – With a biometric gun safe, there is no worry about carrying or losing a key.Keys can be stolen or copied, but biometrics add an added level of security that you simply can’t lose or misplace.
Convenience – Biometric gun safes are quick and convenient to open. No need to recall a combination code or fumble with lining the key up in the lock – simply press your finger to the plate scanner, and the safe will open. Within a few seconds, you can easily access your firearms in an emergency.
Safety – Significantly reduce the threat of gun theft or child access when you use a biometric safe. Breaking into these safes is inherently more difficult, and unlike a code someone could guess or a key that someone can find, no one can imitate your fingerprint in your absence.
