ABSTRACT:
The garment security device can be readily secured to virtually all types of garment racks and garment hangers currently in use. When made of rugged construction the device prevents the unauthorized removal of garments from the garment rack. The device is also portable and compact so that when the device is not in use, the cable retracts and the device may be easily carried in a woman's purse. The device secures a garment to the garment rack. The garment rack includes a hanger suspended therefrom. The device includes a reelable cable located within a cable housing, wherein the cable has a lockable end. The device has locking means for locking the cable end into the security device. The locking means are preferably a lock integral to the cable housing which receives the cable end and retains it securely in place until the lock is released by the key. The device also includes mounting means which retain the device to either the garment rack or the hanger while the reelable cable end is withdrawn from the cable housing and looped through an opening within the garment and locked into the security device. After the device is locked the mounting means may or may not be released.
