HIGH SECURITY LOCKS
ARE VERSATILE

SUBJECT
SOLUTION
Choosing the right lock for your
route is important.
The operator today would like to
hear that a high security lock cost
less than the cheap lock, but let's
face reality.
PROBLEM
Everyone knows that a high secu-
rity lock is better than a cheap
medium security lock but the
tradeoffis that they cost more.
But with the Lock America/Alloy
type lock that may be just the
case. It's like buying a good diesel
truck for your moving vehicle. It
may cost more initially, but in the
long run it is cheaper.
I purchased a pick for ace locks
from a vendor that called me. (I
use them for my home gamEi re-
pair, not collecting on my coin-op
route). It takes 2 minutes to pick
a lock.
THINK LONG TERM
The Lock America/ Alloy high se-
curity lock is cheaper for many
reasons.
The locks that come with the
games are even worse. I have
even seen a few smaller operators
using a #7 Wico key.
