I.D. holders are not flashy, nor are they exciting. In fact, they’re not even terribly interesting. They are, however, an important fact of life in the modern world.
With increasing concern in recent years about school and workplace violence, terrorism and other crimes, has come a requirement that employees, students and visitors wear identification at all times when on workplace, school or public premises. I.D. holders are a must to contain I.D. cards and keep them ready for visible display.
I.D. holders can be attached to lanyards, badge reels, pinbacks and pocket clips. The right design depends in part on the environment in which they’ll be used.
Lanyards are a common way to hold I.D. badges at a convenient, visible level while keeping the hands free for job tasks. The lanyards attach to a plastic sleeve designed as an I.D. holder that contains the identification card or other document.
Lanyards come in a variety of styles, colors and prices. A wide range is sure to fit virtually any I.D. holder price and quality requirements. For those who don’t want to use lanyards, badge reels are an excellent alternative, available in economy or heavy duty styles.
Badge reels contain the I.D. document in a plastic holder, just like a lanyard. But the I.D. holder connects to a retractable cord attached to the reel. Instead of being worn around the neck like a lanyard, the badge reel gets clipped to a belt or pocket. That still keeps the I.D. holder at the ready. Badge reels also allow the I.D. holder to be extended for easy viewing or for use in a key card reader.
Others choose an I.D. holder that clips to a shirt or jacket pocket. This style has the advantage of being mostly unobtrusive in use, and generally doesn’t damage clothing. But they can be easier to lose than other types of I.D. holders.
Pinback I.D. holders pin the I.D. badge to clothing. While this offers a more secure hold than clip-on holders, it also can damage clothing, making it a non-viable option for many people.
Specialized I.D. holders are available as well for specific needs. Police badge holders are designed to accommodate the shape of law enforcement badges. Waterproof I.D. holders are perfect for boaters, surfers, fishermen and others who are regularly on the water.
Some may prefer a more fashion-appropriate selection of possibilities, and the designer fashion industry is happy to oblige. Designer organizers complete with I.D. holders are available, at designer prices, of course.
With a little research, it’s easy to find an appropriate I.D. holder for just about any need. The most common types, those which fasten onto lanyards and/or badge reels are the most popular. That’s because for most people, badge reels and lanyards are the most convenient way to carry an I.D. holder at work or school. It’s easy to wear a lanyard, wristband or badge reel attached to a simple I.D holder that meets the requirements of keeping the necessary documents easily accessible and visible at all times.
