Abstract (en)

A lockable merchandise storage container (2) has a lock slide (20) disposed within a lock housing (40) that is connected to a portion of the container. The container includes a base (10) and lid (12) with the lid movable between open and closed positions. The lid (12) has at least one hook (62). The lock housing (40) is connected to the base (10) with at least one snap fit connector (44). A lock slide (20) is disposed entirely within the lock housing. The hook (62) of the lid (12) extends into the lock housing (40) when the lid is in the closed position. In the locked position, the lock slide (20) engages the hook of the lid to prevent the lid (12) from moving from the closed position to the open position. An opener (22, 24) for the container (2) is adjustable to receive containers of different thicknesses.
