A security device includes a case with a lid to receive merchandise and a locking mechanism for latching the case closed. The locking mechanism has a housing with parallel flanges to overlie a portion of the lid and another surface of the case, preventing the lid from being opened. One end of the locking mechanism is fixed and the other is movable between open and closed positions, and a mechanism in the housing retains the movable end closed. A decoupler is provided for opening the locking mechanism.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A security device comprising:a case having an access opening to receive merchandise, top and bottom surfaces, and two opposing sidewall surfaces having, respectively, first and second coupling elements near the access opening, said first and second coupling elements of common shape and size; anda locking mechanism for maintaining the case enclosed when the locking mechanism is closed, the locking mechanism being fully separable from said case when the locking mechanism is open and includinga base housing having a wall defining a region accommodating interior components,two flanges extending generally parallel to each other from the base housing and spaced apart from each other to receive and retain the top and bottom surfaces of said case and prevent access to at least a portion of an interior region of the case through said access opening,a non-moveable engagement element fixed to the base housing for releasably engaging with the first coupling element of the case,a linearly slidable engagement element extendable into the region accommodating interior components of the base housing for engaging the second coupling element of the case when the linearly slidable engagement element is in a first position and disengaging from the second coupling element of the case, when the linearly slidable engagement element extends linearly outward from the case and beyond the second coupling element to a second position, anda locking device within the interior component space of the base housing retaining the linearly slidable engagement element in the first position when the locking mechanism is closed.
