How to Keep Your Diabetes Pins Safe with Secure Locking Backs

If you love adding a personal touch to your diabetes kit with enamel pins, you know the heartbreak of losing one. Whether it's your favourite diabetes awareness pin, a medical alert pin, or just a cute addition to your diabetic accessories, losing a pin is the worst. But don’t worry, the secure locking pin backs are here to save the day!


Why You Need Secure Locking Pin Backs
Standard butterfly or rubber pin backs can be unreliable, especially when attached to bags, jackets, or medical kit cases that see a lot of movement. The last thing you want is for your Type One Diabetic pin or Insulin Dependent badge to disappear when you least expect it! That’s why we stock secure locking pin backs in both gold and silver, to keep your pins exactly where they belong.


How Do Secure Locking Pin Backs Work?
Unlike traditional pin backs, which can slide off over time, these locking backs have an inner locking system that grips the pin post tightly. Here’s how to use them:


 1. Slide the back onto the pin post as you normally would.
 2. To remove, pull apart the two sections of the backing to release the lock.
 3. That’s it! It might take a little practice, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll never worry about losing your favourite diabetic awareness pins again.
