How do they stay locked? Back in the day they use to have plastic that would go over the top of the clasp area.

There is a plastic "block" for want of the correct word, inside and you have to sort of "dip" the straight part to get around it. Plastic over the top would have been even better.

These work the same way. You just put the metal end of the pin into the slot that is in the plastic part.

There is a deep grove inside the head of the pin. I believe it would stay locked unless the metal part bent. I feel this is a real concern. In my opinion, an active baby's movements would cause the metal to bend and allow the pin to escape the protective pin. Also the plastic seems cheaply made. I don't think I would use these pins on my baby. Of course this is only my opinion.

The plastic has a lock in it, actually an indented place. The pointed end is completely enclosed inside the plastic and does not come apart even in the washer. I use it to hold socks together. To open it, you have to push over and then down. Then the metal part with the point will come out. A young child would not be able to open it.

push the sharp end in the slot. then push the sharp end down to the other side and move it up and away from the slot. there is a small bar under there that keeps it locked [look in the open end and you'll see the little bar].........it's kinda hard to explain. it'd be easier to "show and tell"!

They still do, and they stay closed very nicely. I do not use them for diapers, they can be used for all kinds of things that one wants a more secure pinning of.

There is a metal tab on the under side that you push over to release the locking mechanism.

the locking mechanism Is made of metal. So there is no problems with wear over time.

Try putting them on the opposite ends. I had the same problem and when I switched ends for the clasps to go into it worked lots better.

It does not have a magnet or clasp to keep locked. However the shell and hinge have a spring that will keep it closed and will not open freely when it is being moved.

There is a liner lock that you press with your thumb. Very common design. Works well.

The plastic is just a cover. Inside is a hard steel/sturdy piece that does the actual locking.

I'm not sure to how to answer that question, ours came fine has the key to lock it up all together but we didn't have any problems with it, you may consider taking it to a jewelry store and have them look at it.

My safe was built in Dec 2014. The buttons themselves are plastic that fit over the actually steel lock button. There is some play between the plastic knob & the steel button however it has no effect on the functionality of the lock. It is merely a cosmetic issue than a functional one...

I had a similar band with the fitbit -- stupid stupid clasp design for such and expensive piece of equipment. I went to my local hardware store and bought two little black O-rings and put them on. They work wonders in holding the clasp in place. Even when the clasp loosens, (which it frequently does) the wrist band doesn't fall off.

There is two different types of locks. One goes down with the auction and the other ones are the clamp locks unlock those first

Good question Jessica, yes they do come with a clasp but it's plastic, they still hold well though

You have to roll the top over several times and then close the clasp. It works.

I have not tried or seen if they hold up to bolt cutters, but I can tell you they can jam up; I'm not sure if it was due to the rainy conditions or not but the lock mechanism tumblers either rusted or someone had damaged them previously trying to get it open without the key...I eventlually got it open but it would not lock again.

They couldn't get out of the front as the clasp holds the top down to the bottom securely but......on the top where it meets the back panel, it is not secured and they could make their way out of that if they worked at it.

We used pliers to open the clasps, connected the panels and then closed the clasps securely w/ the pliers again. To reinforce we then used the stakes to secure the pen into the area that we placed it in. That was one of the negatives I felt to this pen, but once we did that we have had no issues w/ our rabbit getting out. Good luck....
