Triteq Lock & Security LLC
The retrofit sign face kit with electronic security is for cold drink machines with curved fronts. The components give older machines the same benefits as the Pepsi HVV machines, including larger decals and selection buttons. Operators need a sign face, which they can get from a sign face company (one company that is providing the sign faces is D.I. Graphics, based in Denver, Colo.), and product selection switches and the vandal panel that goes over the corner of the door, both of which Triteq provides. Call 857-640-7002; www.triteqlock.com.
