Product of the Week- World's First Codeable Lock

by Sail-World Cruising on 24 Jul 2009
Does your key collection look like this? SW
Does your bunch of keys look like the picture?

Are you tired of having keys for, not only the house, the car, the garage and the shed, but also the boat, the dinghy, the outboard motor and the deck lazarette?

Now there's an amazing innovative solution that could cut your key chain by half.


The world’s first codeable lock products just last week received a New Product Showcase Award at ICAST 2009 in Orlando, Florida. It was voted as the best new FISHING accessory, but what a boon it could be for sailors.

Of the 208 exhibiting companies that entered 600 tackle products and accessories in the New Product Showcase at ICAST, the series of innovative locks from DuraSafe were voted by attending Buyers and Media as the Best New Fishing Accessory.


The locks incorporate a patented cylinder that enables you to insert your vehicle key, first time only, turn once, and the lock programs itself to your key. You can have multiple locks, all openable with the same key.

It's also very secure. The cylinder is automotive grade allowing for thousands more key codes than a standard lock. Its 6-plate tumbler with sidebar makes it impossible to pick or bump.

Imagine the convenience of using your car/truck key instead of having to search for separate keys or trying to remember a lock’s combination miles from home.

Offered in a variety of DuraSafe products including receiver lock, padlock, cable lock, swing tongue trailer lock, spare tire lock and motorcycle disc brake lock.

The lock will self align itself with over 88% of light trucks and over 70% of ALL Ford, GM and Chrysler vehicles on the road. It is said to be compatible with 111 million vehicles, just in the USA alone.
