Adding security to your wheelie bin is becoming more of a necessity - whether stopping animals from foraging, people going through your rubbish in search of confidential information, or simply preventing others from dumping their waste in your bin, a solution is at hand. This heavy duty bracket is made from 8mm thick tough plastic & comes complete with a key operated water resistant padlock for locking. Two keys are included for good measure. Fitting the lock to your wheelie bin can be done in seconds - as can removing it when you need to fill the bin or on collection day. No modification to the bin is needed; the bracket simply hooks over the lid, the section with 'teeth' slides up under the lip of the bin, and the padlock passes through the back holding the whole thing together firmly. The chunky bracket requires no assembly, so no fiddling with small parts and the plastic construction ensures no rust. The large size of the lock (30cm tall) means that as well as fitting domestic 240 litre wheelie bins, it can also be used on larger 1100 litre trade size wheelie bins. A simple solution to a growing problem.
