Hello,
To help keep the AED’s secure, I am asking you do the following:
1. If your lock is not a hardened lock, please purchase a new lock that is hardened similar to the attached picture. I know this will cost some money for the lock and extra keys. Hopefully you have some money in your AED account to cover the cost.
2. Purchase a “paint pen” and mark your machine and box with your group name. Put the telephone number for the fire department on both the machine and box.
3. I have started marking new machines like a “billboard” for identification.
40DPF - Master #40 Stainless Steel Discus Padlock with Hardened Steel ShackleI am not endorsing this brand of lock. This style of lock is very hard to cut.
Locks are available on Amazon and are prime eligible J. [ame]http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=master+lock+%2340[/ame]
Thank you for your participation in the AED groups of The Villages. It is a pleasure working with you.

Jane is there a way to get this message out to all the neighborhood leaders where AEDs are installed? This is important for all to see.
