Print-in-Place Slide-Lock ID Holder (4 Versions)
Why I Designed This
The inspiration for this project came from a daily frustration: my previous card holder made it a struggle to access my ID. Every time I needed to use a card reader, I had to fight to remove the card from the holder. It was difficult, slow, and annoying.
I designed this model to solve that problem. I wanted a holder that keeps the card secure while walking, but allows it to slide out instantly and smoothly when you need to scan it. No more struggling at the turnstile or door reader!
Overview
Upgrade your daily carry with this secure, print-in-place card holder. Designed for professionals, students, and commuters, this holder keeps your ID or access card locked in place until you remove it.
Key Features
- Solved the "Reader Struggle": Engineered specifically for quick insertion and removal, making scanning at badge readers effortless.
- Secure Slide-Lock: A built-in mechanism that holds the card in place, preventing accidental slips.
- Zero Assembly: Prints as a single piece. No glue, screws, or hardware required.
- Lanyard Ready: Features a loop for attaching to standard lanyards, keychains, or retractable badge reels.
Included Variations
This collection features 4 distinct profiles to suit your specific needs:
- Design 01 - Horizontal: Standard landscape orientation for traditional office IDs.
