Gray Brass Lock And Key, 2" x 3" x 2"

My husband aged the metal on this lock and key and used it on a Wells Fargo strongbox that he built from scratch to use in a Western tableau in Jacksonville, Oregon. It looks authentic.

Bought this thinking I'd be let down. Well, I'm not! This lock is really cool and it does work! I love the one review "It's not real brass!" Well, duh!! It's crudely made with rough edges and yes tragically not "real" brass but I bought it to lock up a wine cellar room to keep potential in house wine-o's out of the Mrs's and mine wine and bourbon collection. And to my surprise I think it will do just fine! Yes, I also agree with some reviews in that if someone is really determined enough this lock will more than likely not put up much of a fight but it will give someone trying to sneak a sip here or there a hard time trying to accomplish that goal. Currently trying to rough it up even more to give it a more vintage look. Little bit of salt and vinegar should do the trick. If you're looking for something cheap for an old time look and feel that actually works buy one!

Pretty cool looking, works great

I love this lock! I bought one a few months ago to use for my locker at work. This lock isn't that much more expensive than a basic master lock so I went for it. Obviously this lock is NOT going to save my stuff from getting stolen from someone determined to break in and steal my things, it is very easy to pick. But to deter opportunistic thievery from small children this works just fine and looks pretty cool. I like this lock so much I decided to get another one to use for personal belongings in my own home. Again, if someone really wants my stuff this lock isn't going to stop them but to keep away people randomly digging through my things for fun this works just fine. Also should note! The keys are universal for the locks. Despite them having unique notches it doesn't actually matter. The keys I have for my first lock works just fine on the second one. As noted by other reviewers both locks came to me very rusty. I just rubbed it down with disinfecting wipes and no problems since then.

I purchased 3 of these locks to secure a pirate's chest. We were in the Caribbean and I staged hidden treasure for 3 boys (7-9 y.o.). I wanted them to think they found "real" buried treasure. These locks were absolutely perfect. They had a cool patina and looked old. The keys were perfect as well and easily opened the lock. The only quality issue was that the brass plate covering the key hole fell off on all 3 locks after it was swung up 2-3 times to access the key hole. This wasn't a huge deal but could be improved upon. I'll review the items that i put inside the box separately if you're trying to make your own realistic treasure :-)

Great price, other places were higher. I used it for decorating.

This is an excellently crude, or crudely excellent piece of design and workmanship. It functions perfectly, with one caveat, and for most intents and purposes is like an object that slipped into the present through a time machine. A pirate's booty treasure chest is the most common application, it seems, and I think the challenge would be to supply a wooden chest of appropriate construction and patina to match this lock. My caveat relates to the weather guard, which on my example seems to be frozen in a position swung to expose the key hole. I am reluctant to simply oil it up and force it down to cover the hole, afraid of breakage. I don't know if it is intended as a non functional decoration, or is just stiff and waiting for a ham hand. Any child, set designer, etc., will be delighted with it at any rate, I am sure.

Bought an old rusty lock for an escape room; I didn't expect it to actually arrive rusty! The lock seems to work ok, it was just dirty/dusty with rust-colored dirt.

The one I received was exactly as pictured. The antiquing on it looks really convincing! I had to wipe off the oily manufacturing residue, and it still feels a bit icky, but I'm using it only as a photo prop so it's okay. The keys do work but the action isn't all that smooth. Overall, I'm really happy with this padlock. It's solid, heavy and really cool looking.

Love it, perfect for the pirate treasure chest I built. Lock arrived earlier than expected, works excellent. Would buy again if I build another chest.

Aunque es de acero y esta robusto, es mas decorativo que de seguridad. Queda perfecto en muebles rústicos o antiguos. Es la pieza exacta para mi cava de barril.
