How to Customize Your EDC with Keyport Faceplates (aka Scales)

A big part of Keyport's versatility is the ability to personalize your key organizer or multi-tool. Enhancing your everyday carry (EDC) setup with Keyport Faceplates, also known as scales or side plates, offers a personalized touch to your Keyport devices. This guide provides a step-by-step approach to customizing your Keyport Slide, Pivot, or Anywhere Tools with Faceplates, ensuring both style and functionality.

Understanding Keyport Faceplates

Keyport Faceplates are removable side plates that allow you to customize your Keyport devices. They are compatible with the Pivot 1.0, Pivot 2.0, Slide 3.0, Slide 4.0, Module Pocket Clip, and all Mid-Modules. Each Faceplate features a durable stainless spring steel plate attached to a polycarbonate outer shell, with graphics hardened on the outside for enhanced durability. We carry a wide array of Keyport Faceplates to suit every style.

Benefits of Customizing with Faceplates

  • Personalization: Tailor your Keyport to reflect your unique style.
  • Functionality: Faceplates can serve as money clips when used with the Anywhere Pocket Clip.
  • Versatility: Easily switch between different designs to match various occasions or preferences.

Step-by-Step Guide to Attaching Faceplates

  1. Prepare Your Keyport Device - Ensure your Keyport Slide, Pivot, or Anywhere Tool is clean and free from debris.
  2. Align the Faceplate - Position the Faceplate over the designated area on your Keyport device, ensuring proper alignment with the attachment points.
  3. Secure the Faceplate - Press firmly until the Faceplate clicks into place, indicating a secure attachment.
  4. Verify Attachment - Gently tug on the Faceplate to confirm it is securely fastened and does not shift.

Removing and Changing Faceplates

  • To remove, gently pry the Faceplate from the attachment points using a non-abrasive tool or your fingernail.
  • Once removed, you can attach a different Faceplate following the steps above.
