Clarification: Fortress Gun Safe Recall

20 October 2023                     Madison, Wisconsin

Dear Fortress Display Customer or Visitor –

We have recently learned of a voluntary recall of some 60,000 Fortress gun safes, this being done by the Fortress Safe Company in conjunction with the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).  The safes impacted feature biometric locks – which use body-specific information to grant access – amid reports of safes allowing access without correct and programmed fingerprints.  We applaud the proactive effort.

We want to make clear, however, that Fortress Display, a brand of Hoffman Manufacturing Corp, is totally independent of and has no relation to the Fortress Safe Company, Fortress Safe products and the recall announced on 19 October 2023.  We want to stress as well that Fortress Display has no biometric lock mechanism on any of its products.
