| Coin slot vandalism and theft are
epidemic. Most unscheduled maintenance calls, hand set losses, and out of
service phones, are related to the stuffed or jammed coin slot, damaged coin
mechanism or the additional damages which result from the obstructed coin
slot. Slot stuffers simply "wire push" paper or plastic down the coin slot about three inches. After your angry customers leave (the leading cause of damage and hand set loss), the stuffer simply "coat-hangers" the slot, jamming coins past the paper. One cycle of the hand set, and the escrow hopper gives up all the money, leaving you with; damaged coin mechs, out of service phones, increased maintenance, lost customers, and less profit. Commonly, the only evidence is a drop in income, an occasional piece of paper, or scratch marks in your coin mech. Always check your coin mech for scratches. You are not the only one getting coins from your phones! Never assume, always check your coin mechs! Whether the "stuffer" picks out coins from above with paper clips or jams the coins through with heavy wires, the effects are the same, lost income, lost customers, even worse, the loss of a quarter can cause extreme anger and even rage in a cheated customer, with the phone as the obvious target! Unless the problem can be solved, profitable street locations may be lost. The losses of a single obstructed coin slot can exceed $50. With vandalism to handsets and coin mechs, plus the lost business, the total losses can easily exceed $250. Some phones are stuffed occasionally, some frequently, but all are stuffed eventually! Why wait? Prevention is cheaper than repair cost. A COIN GUARD™ costs less than one incident of stuffing. An effective, visible coin slot protector has become an essential part of any present day "street" phone. Coin slot stuffers and jammers won't quit , (they're making money ) but they can, and are being stopped! COIN GUARD™ with its patented offset and protected coin path is an effective, well-proven barrier from coin slot attack. With COIN GUARD™, there is no need for expensive "path driven" mechanisms, sliding covers, or expensive faceplates (unfortunately, the criminal is unaware of these hidden defenses, just keeps jamming). This external slot protector acts as a visual deterrent to the criminal and actually improves use by the customer by creating confidence that this phone is not stuffed or jammed. Super Glue in the coin mechs and rapid insertion coin jams are two additional problems prevented by the COIN GUARD™. COIN GUARD™ enhances coin mech reliability and significantly reduces coin jams and maintenance calls. If it fits through a COIN GUARD™, it will fall easily through the coin mech. Carry COIN GUARD™ with you on each service round. Always check the coin mechs for evidence of wiring and stop the vandalism immediately. The one-piece, solid stainless steel COIN GUARD™ can be permanently installed in about three minutes. COIN GUARD™ works!! It keeps profits up and maintenance down. COIN GUARD™ is the most effective improvement you can make to a pay phone. no installation is complete without one. COIN GUARD™ is now cast in the finest 316L solid, marine stainless steel for better precision, function, corrosion resistance, and a superior permanent chrome-like finish. To install, simply align the COIN GUARD™ with the aluminum alignment guide, drill four holes, and install stainless steel pop rivets. It's that easy! It becomes a permanent part of the upper housing, and gives slot protection for the life of the phone. The COIN GUARD™ fits any brand of payphone that has a one-inch flat surface to either side of the coin slot. COIN GUARD™ $19.95 EACH. MINIMUM ORDER 5 EACH
