Latham, NY (May 28, 2019) - Vara Safety, a new tech startup in firearm safety, launches its childproof handgun safe for pre-orders this Friday, May 31st. Their innovation is named Reach and its unique design and technology has attracted thousands of people who own a handgun for home protection.

Features include:
- A large biometric sensor that uses premier capacitance technology for accurate fingerprint data capture and high reliability. Add up to five authorized users, preventing children and intruders from unlocking the gun.
- A charging mount that keeps the safe plugged in for reliable power. The mount is versatile and can be used to secure Reach next to the bed, in the closet, under a desk, or in the vehicle.
- An internal backup battery that is rechargeable and holds power for an additional few months, in the case of an emergency power outage.
- A holster insert that can be changed out to your specific handgun model (i.e. Glock insert, 1911 insert, etc.).
- A mechanical key override as a physical means of backup.
Vara Safety is a mission-driven company, created with the intent to prevent firearm-related accidents in homes.
