Vault Structures Providing Security Products and Services Since 1970s

VSI was first organized as Bank Vault Structures, Inc. in 1987, coinciding with Underwriters Laboratories’ regulation of modular vault panels. The company’s initial product was the Vision (lightweight) modular vault panel. Shortly after that, VSI designed and manufactured the Aegvs (traditional) modular vault panel. Finally, the Thor Vault Door was created to provide customers with a turnkey vault system.

Recognizing that the use of vaults was not limited to financial institutions, VSI shortened its name to Vault Structures, Inc. This allowed the company to broaden its market and appeal to those in the pharmaceutical and commercial industries, including military and residential markets. Today the company’s revenue stream is split approximately 50/50 between the banking industry and other applications.

Over time, the company developed aligned security products including U.L.–rated safes (TL-15 and TL-30), cash lockers, and safe deposit boxes. Additionally, we have enhanced our product line by creating the Hercvlite (lighter and thinner) modular vault panel. Our proudest moment was the unveiling of the VSI-360, a UL Class III rated Round Vault Door. This is the first round vault door manufactured in the U.S. in approximately 70 years and the first round vault door to be certified by Underwriters Laboratories.

While our name remains Vault Structures, Inc. we prefer VSI to reflect our product mix. In 2014, we adapted our current logo to depict our VSI-360 door as the world. We feel our new brand image signifies our relationships with not only those in North America, but also with those located in South America, Australia and Europe. In each of the last several years our international revenue has accounted for between 25 to 30 percent of our total revenue.
