Buying Lanyards
If you are running a conference you know that you will need ID badges, but there is a better alternative to buying clip on badges or badges with pins. You can buy badges that hang from lanyards instead. They look better, are more practical, can be re-used as well.
You can also use them for other kinds of cards, such as club membership cards, access cards and staff or student ID cards. A growing number of schools, universities and large businesses are issuing their staff and students with identity cards that double up as passkeys. Embedding a microchip in these durable plastic cards allows them allows to double up as passkeys. Using them people can open electronically controlled doors or turnstiles to gain access to different areas of a building or campus.
Using lanyards, you have the option of making these pass cards hands free. You just need to install a chip capable of Wi-Fi communication such as a HID chip to turn a membership card on a lanyard into an easy to use proximity access card.
Types of Lanyards
There are many types of lanyard available. Which one is right for you depends on how you want to use them.
A lanyard is basically just a piece of string held together in a loop by the clip. Most are designed to be worn around the neck. However, some are smaller and are designed to fit around the wrist or hung from a belt or belt loop.
You can buy lanyards made from strong cord, or from beaded chains made out of either metal or plastic. However, by far the most durable and best-looking lanyards are made from nylon. These lanyards lay flat, so are more comfortable to wear.
There are several different kinds of clips available. These include J clips, lobster clips or trigger clips. The clip you choose can be important in some circumstances and in some environments you will need to use quick release clips and may also need the lanyard itself to have a quick release mechanism built into it for health and safety reasons.
Digital ID sells a huge range of lanyards. It does not matter which kind you need they will have it and will sell it to you for a fair price.
