InstaKey Security Systems Launches Electronic Lock Solutions Designed for the Demands of Licensed Cannabis Facilities

Denver, Colorado – December 22, 2025 — InstaKey Security Systems, a longstanding security partner to cannabis operators across the United States, today announced the launch of its new electronic lock product line, bringing next-generation access control technology to dispensaries, cultivation facilities, and manufacturing sites. Known for decades of leadership in key control, loss prevention, and compliance-oriented security, InstaKey is expanding its offerings to meet the increasing demand for long-term, scalable electronic lock solutions.

The new line is built with one priority in mind: longevity. As cannabis businesses scale, the costs and operational strain of rekeying, employee turnover, and access control interruptions add up quickly. InstaKey’s electronic solutions are designed to eliminate those recurring burdens, replacing short-lifecycle hardware with durable, future-proof systems that reduce long-term expenses, strengthen operational control, and support the strict compliance requirements of licensed cannabis facilities.

“We’ve supported operators in this industry for years, so we’ve seen firsthand how expensive and disruptive traditional rekeying, battery failures, and access issues become as cannabis businesses scale,” said Lonny Gorham, Business Development Manager of InstaKey Security Systems. “Our priority was to create electronic lock tools that stay reliable year after year—helping operators remain compliant, secure, and efficient without constant reinvestment.”

InstaKey’s expansion introduces two distinct hardware paths designed to meet the needs of different facility types: The Spirit Series and Last Lock. The Spirit Series offers a mobile-enabled Bluetooth access control system that allows users to assign, revoke, and modify access directly from a phone on both Apple and Android (by end of year), making it especially valuable for multi-store retail environments with frequent staffing changes. By streamlining turnover and eliminating late-night rekeying calls, Spirit ensures that access control stays accurate, current, and cost-efficient across both internal and external doors.

To support cultivation and manufacturing, the Last Lock platform is designed for high-demand industrial environments where reliability is non-negotiable. Using kinetic energy generated from pushing the door handle, the system recharges its battery as it operates, removing the need for battery replacements or power monitoring. Last Lock supports keycards as well as InstaKey’s signature interchangeable cores, offering consistent access for cultivation and manufacturing sites where environmental conditions and heavy daily use can strain traditional electronic hardware.

Both platforms are built to help cannabis operators maintain compliance with state and local security requirements and prevent violations that could put inventory, personnel, or licensing at risk. 

InstaKey’s new electronic solutions are available now to cannabis businesses seeking scalable security that supports single-location operators, multi-site retailers, and vertically integrated enterprises alike. On-site and virtual security assessments are available to help operators identify the best configuration for their facility layouts, budgets, and compliance needs.
