New European Style High Security Padlocks at Affordable Pricing!



Lynnwood, WA, April 3, 2006 - The Frank J. Martin Company introduces a new line of High Quality, High Security European Style Padlocks at Affordable Pricing.

The durable Sobo High Security Padlocks are constructed of a solid brass body and internal components with a hardened, chrome plated shackle. There are no internal spring loaded components to wear out or rust over time. The SOBO European style keyway is practically impossible to pick and requires the key to turn 90 degrees prior to engaging with the internal disks. Sobo locks come with 4 keys and the keys are self retaining requiring the padlocks to be locked prior to removing the key.

SOBO High Security Padlocks come in two major styles: Shrouded Shackle and Jimmy Proof D-Shape Style
SOBO shrouded shackle padlocks prevent sawing/cutting and have heel/toe double locking. The solid brass shrouded padlocks are excellent for marine use and come in two finishes; the triple plated chrome finish and a durable scratch proof ABS plastic with a protective sliding key way cover.

The Jimmyproof "D" shaped locks feature the freely rotating shackle which resists cutting and comes in two styles. The Solid Brass "D" shaped SOBO lock features a FIVE dial keyway with 100,000 possible combinations! The other SOBO "D" shape padlocks have the same High Security European Keyway as other SOBO keyed padlocks.
