About Us

Our History

HandyTrac was founded in 1995 by John and Debra Lie-Nielsen to create an electronic key control system that combined efficiency, security, and affordability. This innovative product eventually led HandyTrac to design the first fingerprint identity verification for key control systems, offering Wi-Fi capability, touchscreen capabilities, multilingual options, audit trails, and online and app key reports. Today, HandyTrac is the largest provider of electronic key control systems in the industry and serves over 20,000 customers and over 6 million units nationwide. All HandyTrac systems are designed, built, and supported in-house at the company’s headquarters in Alpharetta, GA. HandyTrac Systems is the “Low-Cost Leader” in key control!
