1) Here you have a standard hose bibb which is easily accessible to tampering. With no secure lock in place the faucet can be turned on and left on for hours upon hours.
2) To install, simply place the specialized key into the secure hose bibb lock. The key is magnetized providing the mechanism for locking the device to the hose bibb.
3) Then just screw the secure hose bibb lock onto the faucet until it is snug. After that remove the key.
4) Now you have a safe, secure hose bibb that is resistant to tampering and un-authorized use. When the lock is installed, it spins freely. To remove the lock, all you have to do is insert the key and unscrew the lock. It's that easy!
PLEASE NOTE: During installation the magnetic key must remain in the lock in order to screw the lock all the way onto the hose bibb threads. The hose threads must be clean. If the hose bibb threads are short you may need to add an extra hose gasket to ensure the lock seals all the way on.

High Security HANDLE Lock for Hose Bibbs
Imagine coming home from a relaxing week long vacation only to find your hose bibb dripping and your next door neighbor has a brand new pool. Three weeks later you get a water bill for $800. These simple locks can prevent this type of scenario from happening to you.
This lock can easily replace the existing handle on your
hose bibb to protect your water from unauthorized use when you're not around.
Everything you need to install this locking kit onto your hose bibb is included, but you will most likely need a screwdriver to take your old handle off.
Each locking kit includes two rust and corrosion proof keys that are magnetically sequenced to match your lock only for installing, using or removing the lock. Each kit also contains a spacer/spinning ring to fit on the stem in cases where the handle lock does not completely hide the stem. The spinning ring will keep would be water theives from using pliers or wrenches to grab the otherwise exposed stem. If you find the stem is too long for this handle lock to work properly, then the lock can be used on the outlet threads of the hose bibb by simply using the provided washer and threading it onto the hose bibb outlet threads.
NOTE: If you are ordering more than one hose bibb lock and would like them all keyed the same: Please add a comment in the final review stage (last step of the shopping cart) of your order.
Faucet Handle Lock Installation Instructions
Step 1. Make sure the hose bibb is in the off or closed position and remove the existing hose bibb handle. You may need a screwdriver or wrench (not provided) to remove the handle. Save the original screw or nut to be used later to help tighten the threaded adapter onto the stem.

Step 2. Determine if the spinning ring will be needed by placing the threaded adapter (allen screw side down) onto the top of the stem. Make sure the hose bibb is in the off or closed position. If the stem has 3/16" to 1/4" showing then use the spinning ring. If more than 1/4" of stem is showing then we recommend you use the provided rubber washer and use this lock as an
OUTLET Lock instead.
Step 3. Slide the spinning ring (if needed) onto the stem. Slide the threaded adapter (allen screw side down) onto the stem. Using the saved screw or nut tighten the threaded adapter through the top of the stem and then use the provided allen wrench to tighten the allen screw against the side of the stem.
PLEASE NOTE: If you have a square tapered stem then you may need to place the teardrop shaped insert adapter snugly onto the square stem. Make sure it is properly seated, then place the threaded adapter (allen screw side down) onto the teardrop insert. Using the saved screw or nut tighten the threaded adapter through the top of the stem and then use the provided allen wrench to tighten the allen screw against the side of the stem.
Step 4. Place the magnetized key into the secure hose bibb handle lock and screw the handle lock down on to the threaded adapter until the bottom of the handle lock completely hides the threaded adapter
Step 5. Remove the key and the handle lock will spin freely, providing a safe, secure hose bibb that is resistant to tampering and un-authorized use.
When you wish to use the hose bibb, insert the key and leave the key in the handle while turning the handle counter clockwise to turn the water on. Turn the handle clockwise to turn the water off again. If you would like to completly remove the handle lock then keep turning the handle counter clockwise after the hose bibb is fully opened and the lock will unscrew completely off the threaded adapter attached to the hose bibb.
If you would like a permanent handle lock installation, place a few drops of any thread lock adhesive onto the threads of the threaded adapter, and with the key inserted, screw the Handle Lock down onto the threaded adapter until the bottom of the handle lock completely covers the threaded adapter. Remove the key and the handle lock will spin freely and the hose bibb will be secured.
PLEASE NOTE: During installation the magnetic key
must remain in the lock in order to screw the lock all the way onto the adapter threads. The adapter threads must be clean. If the stem is too long then use the provided spacer (spinning ring) to prevent the use of pliers or similar tool under the lock that could turn the stem. The spinning ring would then just spin on the stem.
