Padlock Security Patch — Order This Ornate Key Badge Design
Design S1405A at a glance
A black-edged badge shape in just two colors, dark green and gold, with an ornate key set inside a padlock-shaped shield outline. Two lettering lines hold a company name, and the lock-and-key emblem says access control and protection before anyone reads a word — the restrained palette gives it the polish of a private firm's crest.

About this ornate key padlock security badge
Lock and key is the oldest shorthand for security there is, and this badge leans into it with an ornate, old-world key framed by a padlock-shaped shield. Dark green and gold are an unusual choice for guard insignia, which is the point: the patch looks like a private firm's crest rather than a generic security shield, and the black edge keeps the outline sharp on any uniform.
Order it as shown or change it: put your company name in the two lettering lines, recolor the field to navy or black, or simplify the key's scrollwork for a small chest version. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Padlock security patch questions
Can both lettering lines carry our company name?
Yes. The two lines restitch to your firm name, a division or a service line, and the 4-hour mockup shows the wording set with the emblem.
Can we change dark green to our brand color?
Yes. The field, key and outline can take any thread color; preview navy, black or burgundy in the markup tool before you request a quote.
Will the ornate key stay detailed on a chest patch?
At 3 inches we simplify a few scroll curls on the proof so the key stays clean. You approve that version before anything stitches.
Can our logo replace the key and padlock?
Yes. Send a logo file or a photo and we redraw it into the badge shape at no art charge.
How do I request edits?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the key or padlock, pin notes on each line and test colorways. The marked version goes in with your quote.
