Abstract

A hasp bracket may include a shield wall and a mounting plate orthogonal to the shield wall. The mounting plate may include a bolt aperture member extending from an inward edge of the mounting plate. The mounting plate may include one or more apertures in a surface of the mounting plate. The one or more apertures may be located in an area bounded by the shield wall and the inward edge of the mounting plate.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A bracket, comprising:
a mounting plate with a shield wall orthogonally attached,
the mounting plate being positioned between a lower edge of the shield wall and an upper edge of the shield wall, and

a notch at the lower edge of the shield wall to receive a handle lock such that the handle lock is covered by the bracket,
wherein the notch includes a void space in the shield wall.

2. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the notch extends from the lower edge to the mounting plate causing the mounting plate to define the lower edge at a portion of the bracket.

3. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the notch extends from an inner edge of the shield wall towards an outward edge of the shield wall.

4. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the lower edge of the bracket includes a stepped structure.

5. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the bracket, when engaged with the handle lock via the notch, prevents the handle lock from pivoting from a locked position to an unlocked position.

6. The bracket of claim 5 , wherein the bracket is affixed to the handle lock by a hidden-shackle padlock.

7. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the mounting plate and the shield wall are separable components.

8. A hasp assembly, comprising:
a cover plate;
a first hasp bracket including a first shield wall and a first mounting plate orthogonally coupled to the first shield wall,
the first mounting plate including a first bolt aperture member extending from an inward edge of the first mounting plate,
a notch on the first shield wall to receive a handle lock; and

a second hasp bracket including a second shield wall and a second mounting plate orthogonally coupled to the second shield wall,
the second mounting plate including a second bolt aperture member extending from an inward edge of the second mounting plate.

9. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the second hasp bracket includes one or more apertures.

10. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the notch extends from a lower edge of the first shield wall upwards into the first mounting plate.

11. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the first mounting plate defines a lower edge at a portion of the first hasp bracket.

12. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the hasp assembly is to be mounted to a surface such that the handle lock is received in the notch.

13. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the hasp assembly interacts with the handle lock such that the handle lock is covered by the first hasp bracket.

14. The hasp assembly of claim 8 , wherein the notch causes a lower edge of the first hasp bracket to include a stepped structure.

15. A hasp assembly, comprising:
a first hasp bracket including a first shield wall and a first mounting plate orthogonal to the first shield wall,
the first mounting plate including a first bolt aperture member extending from an inward edge of the first mounting plate,
the first shield wall including a notch extending from a lower edge of the first shield wall to the first mounting plate, and
wherein the hasp assembly, when engaged with a handle lock, prevents the handle lock from pivoting from a locked position to an unlocked position until the first hasp bracket is moved from covering the handle lock; and

a second hasp bracket including a second shield wall and a second mounting plate orthogonal to the second shield wall.

16. The hasp assembly of claim 15 , wherein the notch is to receive the handle lock such that the handle lock is covered by the first hasp bracket.

17. The hasp assembly of claim 15 , wherein the second hasp bracket includes one or more apertures to receive mounting hardware.

18. The hasp assembly of claim 15 , wherein the second shield wall defines a circular periphery of the second hasp bracket.

19. The hasp assembly of claim 15 , wherein the first mounting plate is positioned between the lower edge of the first shield wall and an upper edge of the first shield wall.

20. The hasp assembly of claim 15 , further comprising:
a cover plate.
