TRUNK LOCKS, TOOL BOX LOCKS, WINE BOX LOCKS FOR SALE
Large Trunk Locks
(our most popular trunk
locks)
These locks measure
3 and 3/4" by 6 and 5/8" overall, when closed. The top half measures
3 and 3/4" by 3 and 3/4". Requires 7 nails to attach to your trunk.
You can use screws, but
that would be a violation of Brettuns Village's "Uncontestable Law of Death
Before Use of Screws", a new program we've started
(we come by your place and
give you a good razzing for stooping to the use of screws).
These locks come with two
keys. This is the most common size and style of trunk lock known
to mankind.
This type of lock was used
on about 80% of all trunks ever made.

The Thrifty Lock
Let's face it, not every trunk that you run across is a priceless antiquity. Only so many of them were actually used by Broadway stars as they
journeyed throughout this great land. A hand full of trunks at best was used by past Presidents, visiting royalty, famous writers, and the like. Odds are
much better that the old trunk you found out by the street on trash day was there for a reason. It's trash, Jack. Why spend a bunch of money to put a new lock on the
darned thing? Put one of these discount locks on there, complete with a plastic locking mechanism. Dimensions are the same as our large locks, above, same hasp on the front for a padlock,
and each lock comes with two keys. Shiny brass finish (this is the only finish available in these). Save that extra dough for a pizza on Friday night.
Discount Trunk Locks $10 each, USA shipping included Part Number Lock-4
We also sell these discount
locks in cases of 20 for $150, USA shipping included

How do I attach this thing to my trunk? Position lock top and bottom at the locations on the trunk where you want them to end up, and mark the mounting holes.
Evaluate the total thickness you'll need to go through in order to mount the lock, and choose rivets from the package that will go all the way through and stick out on the inside of the
trunk by about 1/4". Push the rivet through, then place a burr (washer) over the end of the rivet, and tap the burr down so that it's snug against the wood.
If you have a small, deep socket, 1/4" or 3/8" or so, from a socket wrench set, or some other small tube that's hollow, use it to smack the burr down the shank of the rivet. Once the burr is in place,
snip off the tip of the rivet so that about 3/16" is sticking out past the burr, and then use a steel hammer to peen the rivet. 'Peen' means 'beat the daylights out of it so that it mushrooms
out and holds the burr in place.' You'll find this easier to do if you hold a heavy piece of metal, like the head of an axe or sledge or an old flat iron, so that the head of the rivet stays snug
against the face of the lock while you're banging away on the end of the rivet. The first rivet will be a challenge, the second will be easier. By the third rivet you're an expert.

Old Looking Trunk Padlocks with Keys
Some old boxes and trunks were kept locked up by using a padlock to run through a hasp or loop on the front of the trunk.
Maybe you've got an old trunk, but you need an old lock to put on it. These ARE NOT old - these are modern reproductions
that just happen to look old. Reasonably decent padlocks, brass flap over the keyhole for some reason, and each lock comes with two keys.

As of December 3, 2015 we have sold all of the black locks - only RUSTY left in stock.
Keyhole Covers
Many old trunk and chest locks had this brass piece swinging down to cover the keyhole. Keep the dust out, maybe?
We have two sizes available, but in limited supply. See the two styles in the center of the photo?
Small is on the left, large on the right. Either way, these are $12 each, USA shipping included. Part # Lock-6Sm or Lock-6Lg
The small one is 1-13/16" long over all, the large one is 2-1/4" long overall.
Has a 1/8" dia. round brass post on the back - tap that into the hole in your lock plate and then hammer it a few times on the back to mushroon out the post.
