Abstract
A security device is disclosed for use with a hanger extending from the board. The device comprises two split bar units mounted on the hanger. One bar unit is mounted near the end of the hanger adjacent to the board, and the other bar unit is mounted on the hanger near the opposite end thereof. Each split bar unit comprises two bar portions secured together by releasable fastening means. A removable rod is inserted through a passage in each bar unit and extends between the bar units. The rod prevents release of the fastening means. Lock means are provided for preventing removal of the rod from the passages in the bar units. The security device provides an inexpensive, but very secure, means of preventing theft or pilferage of merchandise displayed for sale on conventional hangers mounted on perforated boards.
