NOTE: This padlock, having no key hole, confuses individuals thinking about trying to pick it. NOTES ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY꞉ From our research, it appears the "magnetic lock" was first invented and patented in Sweden. During our research, we found numerous patents for magnetically operated locks (in various countries) had been granted during the last 25-years. An article on Page A13 of the Thursday, February 6, 1975 edition of The Desert Sun newspaper (Palm Springs, California) reported "...a Japanese company with a foot-long name claims to have the answer [to] an “unpickable” lock. Toyo Tessen Kogyo Goshi Kaisha claims its product, 'Maglok', will completely change the general concept of locks and keys.” This newspaper story addresses the technology as being incorporated into door locks where the key was a magnetic disk. The article continues "I don’t think a burglar would even know what the lock was or how it works just by looking at it, 'a salesman for the local distributor commented.' The lock, according to the distributor, uses a magnetic principle..." SHIPPING COST꞉ Your shipping cost is calculated when checking out.
