About Brady
The W.H. Brady Company founded Brady in 1914. The company started off selling retail displays and calendars, which led to the development of labels. The company’s extreme temperature resistant identification labels used for aeroplane wiring we introduced in the 1940s. By 1999 Brady began trading on the New York Stock Exchange, and their innovation has not stopped.
Why do I need a Lockout/Tagout Programme?
15 to 20% of workplace accidents happen during maintenance work. A lockout/tagout programme mitigates this risk and has become globally recognised as Best Safety Practice.
Benefits of a lockout/tagout program
- Reduced accident rates
- Reduced injury costs
- Reduced indirect costs
- Reduced downtime
- Increased productivity
How Does Lockout/Tagout work?
Lockout/tagout uses a mechanical device to prevent the transmission or release of energy physically.
All plant equipment energy, electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, or otherwise, is potentially hazardous if not shut off during maintenance. Most industrial or plant equipment has more than two types of energy present. Lockout/tagout ensures de-energisation and isolation of all potentially hazardous energies allowing for safe maintenance.

Mechanical Lockout
Securing a valve in the off position during service or maintenance is a mechanical lockout. It is vital in preventing injury or the unexpected start-up of machinery and equipment.

Padlocks
Padlocks are essential in locking energy sources. The devices used to secure valves, electrical or other energy-producing equipment do not lock the items. Therefore, one or several padlocks are needed to lock this equipment.

Padlock Extras
Key Systems
Brady padlocks come standard as “keyed differently”, meaning that no key can open more than one lock.
The locking mechanisms use 5- or 6- cylinders machined to exacting standards. This not only offers high levels of security but allows Brady to provide a greater number of unique keys. It is improbable that you would ever receive a duplicate lock.
To ensure that every lock you receive is different, Delta Health and Safety can chart the locks provided to you. In addition, most Brady padlock mechanisms are key retaining. This means that the padlock shackle must close correctly before the key is released.
Keyed Differently | Keyed Alike | Master Keyed | Grand MasterKeyed |
Padlocks come this way as standard. Ensures no key opens more than one lock. | Available on request.
All locks in a set open with the same key. Beneficial when multiple locks assigned to one employee. |
Available on request. A master key opens several differently keyed locks. Beneficial for supervisors, especially in emergencies. | Available on request. Extension of the master key system. Each sector has a master key. Management can be provided with a grandmaster key to open locks across all sectors. |
Custom Engraving
It is helpful to engrave safety padlocks with certain information. This may be the name of the assigned employee, their function or even your company logo.
Delta Health and Safety and Brady offer custom engraving. Just let us know where you want the printing, required size and provide a file of your logo.
Labels
Labelling your padlocks helps to let employees know that a machine is down for service or maintenance. Delta Health and Safety can provide Brady labels designed to fit their padlocks.
They are made of durable vinyl, contain front and reverse labels and are writable in pencil, pen or marker.
Hasps and Tags
Hasps
Safety hasps are devices that increase the number of padlocks used in a lockout. This enables the energy source to be isolated by multiple workers. The lockout cannot be removed until each worker has completed their job and removed their padlock.
Tags
Tags detail who is responsible for installing the lockout device. They also contain the information of who may remove it.
- Made from water, oil and extreme temperature resistant polyester.
- Can be written on with a ballpoint or felt-tip pen.
- Can be placed on a padlock shackle.
