The application discloses a padlock-type security closure comprising a housing and a J-shaped hasp, the hasp being locked by a disposable seal having a body and a head separated by a line of weakness, the housing having first and second openings to receive the legs of the hasp, the longer leg of the hasp having a recess on its inside edge for receiving the head of a disposable seal and including means for engaging the head, the housing having a third opening which communicates with the opening for the said one leg of the hasp so as to allow insertion of the head of the disposable seal, the housing having a seat for the disposable seal, the third opening being laterally of the other openings such that the disposable seal is inserted transversely of the insertion direction of the hasp. An edge of the third opening of the housing is adjacent the seat and forms an edge against which the seal is bent to break the seal along the line of weakness, and preferably the longer leg of the hasp extends laterally beyond the said bending edge and this beyond the line of weakness of the disposable seal when the disposable seal is in its inserted position. The application also discloses a disposable seal having a body and a head separated by a line of weakness, the head being formed of a pair of hook-shaped elements including resiliently flexible barbs, the barbs facing each other.
