Abstract
A display box includes a housing for supporting a product, a lid, and a removable hanger for locking the lid and housing in a closed position. In the unlocked position, the lid is rotatable relative to the housing along an axis of rotation. A set of cooperating locking members are provided on the lid, housing and hanger. In one embodiment, the housing includes a first locking member in the form of a notch, and the lid includes a second locking member of the same type as the housing. The locking hanger includes a pair of corresponding tabs which are sized to fit within the notches. In use, the tabs are inserted within the notches and slid into a locked position to prevent rotation of the lid. To remove the product from within the locked box the hanger must first be removed from engagement with the lid and housing.
