Abloy Security, Inc. Expands SHUT-OUT® Series Product Offering


IRVING, TX, April 26, 2007 - Abloy Security, Inc. recently expanded the product offerings of the SHUT-OUT® Series. This series now includes SHUT-OUT® Hasps, SHUT-OUT® Puck Locks, the SHUT-OUT® Shield and the SHUT-OUT® Safeguard. The SHUT-OUT® series of products has been developed to provide a complete vending security solution to secure asset protection.

The SHUT-OUT® line includes general purpose hasps and puck locks as well as products specifically designed for the vending and bottling industry. All products are built to resist physical attack and environmental conditions.

Four hasp models are included in the SHUT-OUT® Series. These hasps are constructed of cold-rolled steel providing strength and environmental durability. They are also designed to allow for quick and easy installation. All hasp models are packaged with all necessary mounting hardware.

The SHUT-OUT® Padlock Hasp Offset (SO400) is designed specifically to mount to vending machine doors. Electro-plated with a black finish to visually blend in with the physical appearance of vending machine doors while restricting prying and exterior access to the bill accepter. The cover portion of the padlock hasp protects the shackle and lock body, while allowing authorized personnel easy access.
The SHUT-OUT® Puck Hasp Offset (SO420) is designed specifically to mount to vending machine doors. Electro-plated with a black finish to visually blend in with the physical appearance of vending machine doors while restricting prying and exterior access to the bill accepter. This hasp pairs with either model of the SHUT-OUT® Puck Locks.

The SHUT-OUT® Padlock Hasp In-line (SO410) is designed for use in a flush mount application. This hasp comes standard with a satin chrome finish to visually blend with the ABLOY® PL340/25 or PL 341/25 Maximum Security Padlock.
The SHUT-OUT® Puck Hasp In-line (SO430) is designed for use in a flush mount application. This hasp comes standard with black finish electro-plating and pairs with either model of the SHUT-OUT® Puck Locks.

The SHUT-OUT® Puck Lock models feature the ABLOY® EXEC patent protected key system with the cylinder embedded in a solid, machined steel housing. The housing protects the concealed shackle and lock cylinder, with strength unmatched by other puck-style locks that use aluminum, die-cast zinc, or brass. SHUT-OUT® Puck Locks are easy to re-lock since the key is not required to do so. Simply push the cylinder into the lock body until securely latched. Either puck lock model can pair with both models of the SHUT-OUT® Puck Hasps.

The original SHUT-OUT® Puck Lock housing is constructed of cold-rolled steel and features black finish electro-plating providing resistance to physical attack and environmental conditions.

The SHUT-OUT® Heavy Duty Puck Lock housing is constructed of case hardened steel providing increased resistance to physical attack including drilling, sawing, and chopping. The enhanced electro-plating provides greater durability in harsh environmental conditions.

In the event of a physical attack or break in, most machines' bill acceptor stacker boxes offer little protection against access to the money. The SHUT-OUT® Shield provides a secure solution to this challenge. This product is designed to protect against unauthorized access to the lid of the bill stacker box. This product is easy to install and simple to use; no modifications are necessary. A chain accessory is available to ensure proper replacement of the SHUT-OUT® Shield.

The SHUT-OUT® Safeguard takes protection of cash assets a step further by protecting the merchandising plate above the face of the bill stacker and bill acceptor from being smashed. This product deters the "smash and grab" entry and further protects the bill validator from damage and costly repair or replacement. The SHUT-OUT® Safeguard provides for easy and quick installation with no redesign required.

Abloy Security, Inc. offers a complete range of maximum security locking solutions to fit the varied requirements of the Beverage and Vending Industries. Additional solutions designed for these markets include the ABLOY® Flexlock Keyring Padlocks, ABLOY® PL Series Padlocks, and ABLOY® Cam locks and T-Handle Cylinders.
