You won't be losing your pins anymore!

I kept losing the pins on my bag when I travel. Tried glue and still lost one. Found these and used them. Haven't lost a pin since. You would basically have to rip the fabric to lose them now. Great product!

Pros
  • Perfect for display cases or shadow boxes
Cons
  • The gold finish quickly fades into a dull color

Sturdy and gets the job done

I purchased these to secure pins to my vest and badge holder at work and they definitely did the job. At first I was skeptical that these would secure the pins that well, but it turns out that these were tougher than the pins themselves. I snagged my badge on a cardboard container one day at work and heard two of my pins fall to the concrete. I thought that the pin locks had failed. To my surprise, the bases of both pins were still held in place by the locks and the pins had sheared off…

Pros
  • Protects your pins from falling off
Cons
  • The package does not include varied sizes

Toddler proof! - my new review

Always worried about my enamel pins falling off, but our toddler prompted me to find these. They do not feel cheap, and the company even portioned the locks into smaller bags, which I very much appreciate because they are little. Each bag had ten locks and screws, and each bag had its own allen wrench, which was very thoughtful as well. Four stars on ease of use because they are small and you should not expect them to be ‘easy.’ But they are solid feeling, and they aren’t sharp so rubbing…

Pros
  • Excellent for adding a professional touch to business attire
Cons
  • They are not suitable for people with limited dexterity

No more lost pins best in my review

These things are amazing. I’ve lost so many pins using the little metal clasp or rubber ones. But these lock onto the pin tight and do not let go.

Pros
  • Adds a shiny and sophisticated touch to your pins
Cons
  • The locking mechanism is too difficult to use with one hand

BEST LOCKING PINS FOR ENAMELS!

These are sooooooo much better and easier then the other locking pins I bought! I was a bit confused and wished it would come with instructions but I got the hang of it after watching a YouTube video. All you need to know is the little black springs go into the rectangular pin and you twist to the right to tighten and left to loosen! They keep my pins EXTREMELY secure and honestly feel even more safe with these on it. Very easy and would definitely recommend!

Pros
  • Can be used by professionals in different industries
Cons
  • The gold finish appears cheap and low-quality

Keep your pins secure!

Good for the money. I went to Disney and got 2 pins with plastic backing and ordered these to secure my pins as I didn’t want to lose them.This is good stuff. I would check once in a while to see the locks haven’t loosened.Thanks

Pros
  • Helps prevent lost pins or damage from pins falling off
Cons
  • The gold finish appears dull and unattractive

must have for pin collectors

if you collect pins you need these. I collect disney pins and they have these at the parks but you get a way better value here. I use them on all my pins and they have never fallen off my backpack. little tricky the first time using it but you get the hang of it quick.

Pros
  • Helps in maintaining an organized and neat display of your pins
Cons
  • The backs do not secure tightly enough

Good lock pins best in my review

Really straight forward, they give you everything you need to "lock” your pins, at first it was hard to understand how it worked but once you get it you’ll understand it! I tighten my pins really tight and they didn’t strip or anything. Had my gf tug on the pins while bag was on back and you’d notice someone taking it before they’ll get off the bag

Pros
  • It was missing some of the screw pieces
Cons
  • The locking mechanism is easily damaged

Assembly required on my review.

None of the screws were in, had to insert them myself, and with carpel tunnel and tendonitis, made it a little fun. only lost one little screw. One of the screws though had no slot to insert the hex key, did not get drilled out or how ever they are made. so I am down 2 of these now. over all, size of the hole is larger then expected which is good for me.

Pros
  • To lock in trading pins so they won’t fall off.
Cons
  • The backs don't stay locked securely

Good but be wary - my new review

Awesome, but there were several that were unusable. The screws were too big or the holes weren't drilled right or something, but either way I was only able to use about 50/60 and I almost destroyed one of my pins trying to get a messed up one off.

Pros
  • Perfect for pins with sentimental value
Cons
  • The product is not efficient for mass-production purposes

Highly recommend for pin lovers

I love them! I love wearing pins on my vest for work, but I always used to have to make sure I wore ones I didnt mind losing. Now I can wear whichever I want because these work amazing!

Pros
  • Ensures that your pins won’t fall off during important events or occasions
Cons
  • The locking mechanism is easily triggered accidentally

Works great for my opinion

These work great and hold my pins securely on my vest. I gave it 4 stars because one of the pins did not have the little screw so I can't use it. Also, I would recommend putting the screw in before attaching it to the pin and then tighten it. I have trouble with my hands and putting the screw in first made it so much easier.

Pros
  • Keeps pins in place even while engaging in physical activities
Cons
  • The gold finish rubs off onto clothing

Pros

Cons
  • They are not suitable for people with allergies to certain metals

Small, but Mighty! - my new review

Have two daughters with Varsity jackets and numerous pins that continuously fall off despite having "locking" pin backs. I found these Pin locks online and decided to give them a try. It was somewhat difficult to use these due to their small size, but after awhile I got the hang of it. I also have arthritis, so that may have been adding to my frustration! These little suckers are well worth the money, we have not had any pins lost or loosing their backs! I would recommend this product!

Pros
  • Helps enhance the overall presentation of any pin display
Cons
  • The package does not include enough backs for frequent use

super great locks best in my review

kind of difficult to put on depending on the fabric, but overall, i still have more of them and they’re wonderful! Good price for what you get.!

Pros
  • Good price for what you get.
Cons
  • A fourth of the screws are just welded together, making 2 screws and two of the pi

They are not trust worthy

They are hard to put on. Some worked and some did not. One fell off already on my lanyard. I am a teacher and have my Disney pins on that for fun! At least i did not lose the pin!

Pros
  • Can easily be removed or adjusted as required
Cons
  • The backs are easily damaged and need to be replaced frequently

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect to keep pins in place

Would definitely recommend these locking backs, they are just like the backs sold at Disney World but a fraction of the price. People who bend their pin backs are over tightening, I know because before I realized one of my pins has a wobbly back I over tightening the lock thinking that because it was still spinning it wasn't tight enough. With normal tightness I can practically pick up a backpack by a pin with out it coming off.

Pros
  • A versatile product that can be used with various types of pins
Cons
  • They are not suitable for large pins

Good for the price - my new review

These work. They will secure your pins. A slight knock that you must assemble the screw into each pin instead of coming that way. It is minor but a slight annoyance due to the small size. They will install easily on your pins and secure them, though they will be slightly angled. This isn’t a problem, just an observation. It doesn’t affect the front of the pin at all. I recommend them for the cost.

Pros
  • Can fit onto a wide range of pin sizes
Cons
  • The backs are easily lost and need to be replaced

Works well for my opinion

A little tricky to use, just because they're so tiny. But once I got it on, my pins have really stayed put on my purse, even with a lot of moving around. I sometimes toss my purse into the car, and the didn't budge.

Pros
  • High-quality gold material that is durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • The pins cannot be easily removed from the backing
