Vault Alarm specimen from Simple Bits

An all-caps display sans drawn from lettering on vintage New England bank alarm boxes, offered in subtly-rounded Regular and Sharp cuts.

About

Based on a handful of letters spotted on old bank vault alarm boxes in New England, this chunky all-caps display face leans into the irregular charm of its source material. It ships in two styles: Regular with softly rounded terminals and Sharp with harder edges. The character set covers capitals, numerals and basic punctuation, with a handful of alternate glyphs for G, Z, the ampersand and hash.
