Deco 79 Brass Metal Lock And Key, 2" x 3" x 2", Gray

I’ve been dubious about some of these locks from the source country, but this one looks good and works reliably. So much so, I just bought another one. Hope it works just as well

I love this lock! I bought one a few months ago to use for my locker at work. This lock isn't that much more expensive than a basic master lock so I went for it. Obviously this lock is NOT going to save my stuff from getting stolen from someone determined to break in and steal my things, it is very easy to pick. But to deter opportunistic thievery from small children this works just fine and looks pretty cool. I like this lock so much I decided to get another one to use for personal belongings in my own home. Again, if someone really wants my stuff this lock isn't going to stop them but to keep away people randomly digging through my things for fun this works just fine.Also should note! The keys are universal for the locks. Despite them having unique notches it doesn't actually matter. The keys I have for my first lock works just fine on the second one.As noted by other reviewers both locks came to me very rusty. I just rubbed it down with disinfecting wipes and no problems since then.

This is an excellently crude, or crudely excellent piece of design and workmanship. It functions perfectly, with one caveat, and for most intents and purposes is like an object that slipped into the present through a time machine. A pirate's booty treasure chest is the most common application, it seems, and I think the challenge would be to supply a wooden chest of appropriate construction and patina to match this lock. My caveat relates to the weather guard, which on my example seems to be frozen in a position swung to expose the key hole. I am reluctant to simply oil it up and force it down to cover the hole, afraid of breakage. I don't know if it is intended as a non functional decoration, or is just stiff and waiting for a ham hand. Any child, set designer, etc., will be delighted with it at any rate, I am sure.

These are nice locks for what the are. I bought this an accent for a rustic style chest I am building and it looks great. The one thing is the are not brass, they are steel with a brass color coating.

Works fine and look awesome

Effective heavy duty padlock with a unique key for added protection. Strong and robust padlock.

Keys are very weak and lock is difficult to open. Looks nice for the purpose I bought it. Well overpriced.

Bought this thinking I'd be let down. Well, I'm not! This lock is really cool and it does work! I love the one review "It's not real brass!" Well, duh!! It's crudely made with rough edges and yes tragically not "real" brass but I bought it to lock up a wine cellar room to keep potential in house wine-o's out of the Mrs's and mine wine and bourbon collection. And to my surprise I think it will do just fine! Yes, I also agree with some reviews in that if someone is really determined enough this lock will more than likely not put up much of a fight but it will give someone trying to sneak a sip here or there a hard time trying to accomplish that goal. Currently trying to rough it up even more to give it a more vintage look. Little bit of salt and vinegar should do the trick. If you're looking for something cheap for an old time look and feel that actually works buy one!
