Product Information

A second, yet just as important reason, that you might need an outdoor faucet lock is that your children, or any young kids in general, tend to do things they’re not supposed to just to experiment. Cold weather, rain, and dust can all have a negative impact on your faucets, spigots, and hose bibbs. The second Flow Security Systems lock, Faucet Lock II, is more similar to the Faucet Lock III than to the first faucet lock.

The locks are all keyed the same and the lock is made with brass material, however, there is the option to make the key difference for your specific lock. Hose bib locks are mostly made of brass or aluminum, and can fit into most ¾ inches hose thread faucets. The Flow Security Systems’ FaucetLock is a durable, solid brass outdoor faucet lock to brave any weather conditions and attempted damage. There are no padlocks with this product, no tools for setup, and can be removed with a bolt cutter and a screwdriver. An outdoor faucet or valve lock can help you conserve water and make sure that you’re not spending money on unnecessary water usage.Like someone mentioned in the review the plastic is thin and flimsy, but maybe suitable to send a message to the those stealing your water. Children can sometimes turn the faucet on and either not know how to turn it off or are merely unable to turn it off. There are three parts to this water lock: the spigot lock itself, the rubber, and the rubber washer. These locks can only be unlocked using the appropriate key and are hard to take off the spigot without the proper tools.

If the valve is in an accessible position or in a visible place, thieves can simply reach it to turn the water back on in your absence. A water faucet lock, or a hose bibb lock, is a tool that will prevent unauthorized and vandalizing use of your water. Once you have purchased the correct size lock you will want to attach it to the spigot using the instructions on the packaging for that particular lock. See the above examples by Temeili and Echaparey for exact products exemplifying the faucet lock’s features. This reduces the frustration of losing your first and second, and possibly third, key but not requiring a key at all.A hose bib lock and padlocks are the two tools you can use to put a stop to that high water bill that is usually unaccounted for. This durable, secure, and sturdy water faucet lock is a great addition to any backyard hose or patio mister. One of the biggest reasons that you might want to use an outdoor faucet lock is that water does not come for free.
