Will Well ID Badge Holder Reel with Clip and Keyring - Heavy-Duty All-Metal Casing with 27.5"UHMWPE Fiber Pull Cord for Durability and Easy Access, Holds up to 8 Keys - 2-Pack, Square, Matte Black

This is the second time I've bought these and I was debating between 4 and 5 stars but settled on 5 stars because my gripes are things I only experienced outside the normal usage of this item. For 8 months my badge lives in my hip pocket with the reel dangling out while the other 4 months I wear it on my lapel. While in my pocket it banged around on alot of things which deteriorated the finish of the reel, bent the clasp, cracked the housing, and the screw that holds the 2 halves of the housing together loosened and prevented the cord from retracting. I was able to bend the clasp back into working order and disassemble the reel to rewind the spring and cord which now works like normal. Even with a cracked housing and worn finished it looks and works good. I've never lost my badge because the snap that attaches to the badge keeps it secured to the reel. The price is more than fair for the quality of the product. It's about as easy to use as it can get.

Outstanding product. Own 50. Heavy Use daily. Also give away to coworkers. Last about a year which exceeds expectations. Have purchased multiple times.

This product was just want I was looking for, I heavy duty way to keep my ID/Access card and time card accessable and out of the way of the machinery that I work with. The snap part is very heavy duty reenforced vinyl and worked equally well with the company provided crappy ID card sleeve and the more heavy duty card carrier I upgraded to. The retractable mechanism and belt clip have a very substantial heft to them and the clip is very sturdy and tight. I was initially worried that it would be too bulky and annoying but it hasn't bothered me once and the clip has barely left a mark on my belt after almost a year of continuous use. The cable itself is braided metal with some kind of plastic coating and extends and retracts smoothly and had no problem supporting my cards. I had been using this product for almost a year (purchased Jul. '19 today is 4/26/20) and unfortunately today the cable snapped as I was walking with the lanyard under no load (that I was aware of.) The point of failure was directly above the point where the card attaches at a bend where it retracts back into the clip. Thankfully this is a two pack and I'll be able to use the second one and not get any grief from security at work tomorrow. Also if looks like I may be able to repair it with some disassembly which I will try tomorrow. Overall I am very satisfied with this product and will most likely purchase this again if and when the second one breaks. I expected to get more than a year of use out of one of these but I am still satisfied with the product.

Very Durable & easy to use. The cord does wear out over time, which is to be expected when pulled out numerous times a day! They still last at least 6 months if not longer.

This badge holder has lasted me 5 years of daily use. Not a bad lifespan compared to the plastic versions out there. A colleague of mine used the same item and broke theirs after 4 years, so mileage will vary.

I was needing something lighter weight but wanted to leave review regardless as these badge holders / keyrings seem well made and very sturdy. Would recommend for use on jeans or tool belt, or to attach to bag etc. Worthy of purchase in my opinion, unless you want something cheap and lightweight.

these are nice, solid construction, and will probably outlive my badge and tags themselves. Versatile enough to work for keys, a socket set, some Allen keys, perhaps even a heavy pocket knife. But this thing is heavy! If you’re planing on wearing it on your top or lapel, think otherwise, because you’ll definitely notice the weight. The gunmetal color with polished finish is really nice though Update:maybe I cursed it with my first good review because as of May 18th, 2026, the first badge reel cord snapped and completely broke. I work in a hospital so badging in and out of secure areas and logging into computers is a necessity. I have not applied the second badge reel yet to see if it works but as far as “heavy duty” string pulls go, I believe the company may be falsely advertising a prior, better made product, and instead selling a cheaper alternative. Maybe a batch issue, but I have deducted two stars for this from my original rating.

Bought the 2-pack and use it daily for work ID and keys in an office and warehouse environment. What I like • All-metal body feels solid and durable • Strong steel wire cord retracts smoothly without snapping • Secure clip and key ring keep everything firmly in place What could be better • A bit heavier than plastic versions • Retracting force may be too strong for lightweight cards Bottom line: A reliable, heavy-duty upgrade from flimsy plastic reels. Perfect for professionals who need secure access all day, but look at lighter models if minimal weight is a priority.

Doesn’t come setup. Difficult to do by oneself

I love it .

This badge reel is so different compared to the rest ones. It looks very secured and not easy to be broken.
