Abstract: A lock bracket comprises two bracket members which cooperate to define an area between them to secure together two adjacent objects. The bracket members are movable relative to each other between an open orientation, in which the lock bracket can be placed around or removed from the two adjacent objects and a closed orientation in which the two adjacent objects can be held securely in the area defined between the two bracket members. Each of the two bracket members has a padlock receiving area and the two padlock receiving areas cooperate when the lock bracket is in its closed orientation.
