Viro, leader in Italy and in the world in security systems

Since 1942 Viro is specialized in security products. Many innovations have been introduced on the market in over 70 years of activity: the cylinders with emergency opening, which open from the outside even if a key is inserted into the inner side; padlocks Panzer, imitated throughout the world, with their steel armor helped close more safely millions of roller shutters; armored padlocks longitudinal to chains, which have securely latched a lot of bikes and motorcycles; the safety bar, which has tenaciously defended a large number of access doors, well in advance of the arrival of the armored doors.

In 1983 the brand Fai By Viro was created, characterized by functionality, simplicity and affordable price.

In 1985 Viro Tronic born, specializing in the development of electronic products applied to the mechanical safety and that same year, the first in Europe, Viro launches RAM7, an electronic safe with futuristic features that really surprised and captured the market. Since then, the application of electronics to mechanics has become a characteristic feature of Viro, which has invested more resources in research and development.

Dates back to 1996 the launch of the line of safety cabinets, gun cabinets and file cabinets; while in 2006 the new patented “Ram-Touch” technology was lunched, which allows to open cabinets and safes through an effective fingerprint recognition system. Viro innovation continues at a steady pace, launching on the market an average of ten new products every year.

    We manufacture security gates and panels in Cape Town, South Africa, where crowbar gangs break through
    metal gates with ease. The lock is the week point. Your van lock would seem to be the answer to solving this problem but would need to be key operated from both sides. Would this option be possible. I am planning a trip to Italy in early June and would like to visit Viro to discuss.

    Good day
    We are looking for 7 off twisted cable locks (similar to Hawaii locks) to secure TV frames to steel structures.
    However these locks need to be “Key-A-Like” in order to use one key for all 7 locks.
    Is this something you would be able to assist with, and can we get it in Black instead of Red?
    If possible, can you please send me a quote to InfraComp Africa (Pty) Ltd at my email as per below.

    Regards
