Farmers commonly used these to secure their meat in smokehouses or tobacco in drying houses to prevent poachers from stealing it. However, contrary to their looks, these locks afforded little protection against forced and surreptitious entry and could easily be opened with little effort or force. This functioning, heavy iron lock reproduction features a brass cover plate and includes two skeleton-type keys. An antique reproduction piece that's perfect for Early American reenactment, colonial decor or for use as a stage or film prop. - Antique reproduction - 2-1\/2\" long, 1-1\/2\" wide - Keys are 1-3\/4\" long - Lock and keys constructed of iron - Brass cover plate - Directions for use: Insert key and twist to unlock. To lock again, close shackle, re-insert key, and twist to lock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"f_t_base f_t_color f_t_paragraphSansRegular\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Faire Madison Bay Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48294471139569,"sku":"A-169 (cheater)","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/7917\/6265\/files\/c71fba1076c987b8bdadd0e21a8ece5d99950c355b6474bd554f42d2c6bb3e72.webp?v=1781120909","url":"https:\/\/www.hookedonpickin.com\/products\/vintage-iron-smokehouse-lock-with-brass-cover-plate","provider":"Hooked on Pickin'","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
