Abstract
As a security device to prevent unauthorized removal of merchandise carried by rigid rods cantilevered to a support member, such as conventional pegboard display hooks, a rigid platelike assembly has open end slots along one edge for engaging the display hooks and the ends of the slots can be closed off by a pivotable locking arm to hold the security device on the hooks and prevent the security device from being disengaged from the hooks by sliding off the end of the hooks. The locking arm is latched in the closed or locking position but is releasable by operation of a key to disengage the security device to be able to remove merchandise from the display hook. As a feature, a space is provided on the security device for attaching a label carrying information about the merchandise.
