When your problem is security ... your solution is McGard

McGard is the world-wide leading manufacturer of mechanical anti-theft devices. Over the past 30 years, McGard has become known for its unique product designs and comprehensive service programs in areas where security, safety and liability are top priorities. The certification by QS 9000 and DIN EN ISO 9002 emphasises the quality thought of McGard and typifies our commitment to total quality.
The evolution of our unique line of security products has since provided innovative security solutions for access/ perimeter control and theft/removal prevention for municipalities, public utilities, the oil field industry, high security facilities, and electronics and telecommunications equipment.

McGard's high security locks cannot be compared with normal lockable bolts, which usually can be opened easily with a flick of the wrist. McGard products are made of the highest grades of alloy steel and the lock head with a hardness of over 60 Rockwell gives you the best protection against theft.
Due to this, the high security screws cannot be manipulated neither with saws, files or even drills. The extremely narrow pattern groove moreover prevents the screw being opened with common tools like chisels or screwdrivers. The cone seat of the screw head makes it impossible to grip the screws with pliers.

McGard offers computer designed pattern codes in unlimited numbers. Key registration, to authorised personnel, and computerised tracking of key codes assures you that no unauthorised keys will be distributed in your geographic region.

McGard high security products can be made exactly to costumers specifications and needs. Only thus we can guarantee that the application will meet our customers high security requirements.

The Deutsche Telekom AG has protected all their telephone junction boxes and junction boxes for cable television with the special McGard screws against unauthorised tapping of telephone calls, vandalism or unauthorised usage by third parties.

Moreover McGard manhole locks are used to secure manholes of the Deutsche Telekom AG and many other international telecommunication service providers. The reason for the later installation of manhole locks were numerous attacks and destruction of highly complicated cables. For these applications we use VdS-certified screws. Even private companies have manholes on their grounds secured with McGard screws to prevent industrial espionage, manipulation or unauthorised access.
McGard high security products are used for applications like access control panels or alarm systems. Compared to common mechanical security systems, McGard high security products need only very little space, as usually the original fastener is simply replaced by a McGard high security screw.

Computer Security Locks guard against unauthorised internal access to any computer. They help to prevent tampering and removal of hard drives, RAM chips, internal modems, optical disk drives, CD-ROMs and other components. Computer Security Locks are also adaptable for many types of telecommunications equipment.

Simply replace the existing housing screws with Computer Security Locks which require the matching key tool for installation and removal. Configurations are available to fit most computer manufacturer's housing designs. Standard sizes are available and custom applications can be designed to meet your specific needs.
