Padlocks That Guard

The mechanism of every "Yale and Towne padlock is made as near thief-proof as human ingenuity can devise. Every lock offers the utmost in protection according to its size.

From the tiny goldplated jewel box padlock to the massive brass "pin tumbler types, the entire line of Yale padlocks affords strength and security in the numberless places where only a padlock is practical.
