Fallen One 50 Pack Hard Plastic ID Badge Holders - Permanent Locking

In this review of the Fallen One 50 Pack Hard Plastic ID Badge Holders, the bottom line is simple: these rigid, clear holders are for anyone who needs a tamper-proof, long-lasting way to keep an important badge or prox card secure. The reviewer found the single biggest reason to buy is the permanent locking design that ensures a card cannot fall out or be removed without breaking the case, making it ideal for high-security or heavy-use environments where badge loss is not an option.

Key Features

• Permanent locking design: Locks an ID or proximity card securely inside so the badge cannot slip out during daily use or in wet conditions.
• Rigid polycarbonate material: The hard PC construction resists bending and provides clear visibility while protecting cards from scratches and glare.
• Size and capacity: Measures about 2.4 x 4.2 in and fits either two standard 30 mil cards or one thicker proximity card, including Medicare or contactless cards.
• Badge scanner compatible: Cards inside the holder can be scanned by RFID and prox scanners without removal, preserving convenience when single cards are used.
• Bulk pack for teams: Fifty clear holders in a pack make this a practical choice for offices, security teams, or events that need many replacements.

Who It's For

This product suits security personnel, inspectors, government or private-company staff, and anyone who uses a retractable badge reel or lanyard and cannot risk a badge slipping out. It is particularly helpful for environments where badges are exposed to rain or heavy wear, since the sturdy polycarbonate casing adds protection.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who need to swap cards frequently or want a reusable, openable case; because the end piece is not designed to be removed, the holder must be broken to retrieve the card, so it is not convenient for temporary or rotating badge use.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Durable construction resists bending and protects card surfaces from scratches.
• Permanent lock prevents accidental loss and keeps badges secure in active roles.
• Works with prox and RFID scanners while the card remains inside when using single cards.

Cons

• Not user-removable: the casing must be broken to remove a card, so it is not suitable for frequent card changes.
• Multiple stacked cards may prevent middle cards from scanning reliably.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the card be scanned while inside the holder?
Yes, single prox or RFID cards typically scan through the holder; however, stacked multiple cards may prevent middle cards from scanning reliably.

Is the holder reusable or removable?
No, the end piece is not designed to be removed and the holder must be broken to remove the card, so it is not intended for repeated card swapping.

What material is the holder made from?
The case is made from hard rigid polycarbonate (PC) which provides clear visibility and scratch resistance.
