Breaking News - Bioaxxis Development Corp Close Their Doors

July 3, 2010 - The BBB (Better Business Bureau) report that Bioaxxis Development Corporation, makers of the innovative BD1 Deadbolt and Thumblock, have recently closed their operations.

Bioaxxis were at the forefront of biometric access technology, producing some surprisingly inexpensive yet good quality modern, aesthetically appealing and functional security hardware.

Personally, we found the products to be useful but in low demand.

The Kwikset & Schlage cheap mentality era is still upon the USA.

We will be clearing our excess stocks and anticipate reductions to cost + shipping.

Used properly and in conducive environments, the products hold up well. I did find some age related implications for the product line, however. It seemed that there was a problem with the scanners ability to properly load, store and distinguish fingerprints in the memory, but only of people over 65.

It is a known issue, that as we age, we literally wear out and sometimes fingerprints are one of the first body parts to wear.

  1. Have had a Bioaxxis thumbprint lock for 14 years, no problems. We are both 72 yrs old and it works great, 13 people all registered in lock.

    1. Unfortunately, I believe the product is no longer made. There are a few distributors who may still have some units available (I have one unit left).
      I am glad that you are experiencing no difficulties with the product, but in my experience with the product, elder people seem to have difficulties having their fingerprints registered unless the scanner sensitivity is turned down to low.
