About Justin and Cryptex® Security Boxes
Background
Justin originally custom-crafted each of his Cryptex® Security Boxes to the precise specifications of each of his customers, a process that took between one and nine months.
While these handcrafted one-of-a-kind art pieces - his DaVinci Line - may still be commissioned, Justin has developed two additional product lines of his boxes to meet increasing demand: the handcrafted Nevins Line and his precision-machined standard Cryptex® Security Boxes (formerly known as the Replica Line.)
Gifts, Games, and Escape Rooms
The mechanically changeable code feature of Cryptex® Security Boxes allows for personalized coding/re-coding, and makes them perfect for gifts, storing small gifts or valuables, retail sales, escape rooms, teaching aides, and corporate team building challenges.
Cryptex® Security Boxes are loved by people who enjoy creating their own games, puzzles, riddles, or treasure hunts. These works of art are fully functional security boxes as well as beautiful display or conversation pieces.
