A hinged closure has a ring member, a lid member, a first hinge which connects the ring and lid members, and a locking tab member, hinge and protrusion member assembly. The first hinge connects the lid and ring so that the lid reciprocates for closure and opening and upon closure, edges of a lid skirt and ring skirt mate. The lid has a wall surface which has a recess portion which extends from the lid skirt at a position which opposes the first hinge, and an indent is positioned in the recess portion. The locking tab member is hinged to the ring and extends from the ring and the protrusion member extends from the tab so that upon lid and ring closure, the tab extends to the lid recess and so that the protrusion removably connects to the indent portion to hold the lid and ring member together.
