A locking apparatus configured to restrict access to articles on a conveyor, such as hooked members, by having a locking piece which, when mounted adjacent to a portion of the conveyor and moved to an extended position, the locking piece rests against the articles and conveyor, thereby preventing an operator from removing the articles from the conveyor. The movement of the locking piece can be automated by coupling each locking piece to an actuator which moves the locking piece to the extended position, and coupling each actuator to an air solenoid unit controlled by a computer system. A series of locking pieces used together selectively restrict access to articles suspended only from certain slots within a frame on the conveyor. The series of locking pieces creates an automated locking system for unattended access of garments on a conveyor by being used on a conveyor placed inside a locked area and by being used in conjunction with an operator interface, a computer system and a selectively locking panel exposing a frontal frame on the conveyor path when opened.
