a historia <strong>de</strong> la marca <strong>Yale</strong> comenzó hace<br />

más <strong>de</strong> 140 años con Linus <strong>Yale</strong> Jr, Ingeniero<br />

para Bancos “Monitor”, que marcó la transición <strong>de</strong><br />

las cerraduras <strong>de</strong> llaves a las reconocidas cerraduras<br />

<strong>de</strong> combinación para bancos. En 1865 patentó<br />

su invento más importante: la cerradura <strong>de</strong> cilindro<br />

<strong>de</strong> pines. Este sistema es la base <strong>de</strong> la mayoría <strong>de</strong><br />

cerraduras <strong>de</strong> cilindro y en la actualidad es el tipo<br />

<strong>de</strong> cerradura más usada en el mundo.<br />

En 1868 fundó junto con su colega Henry Towne la<br />

compañía <strong>Yale</strong> & Towne Company en Stanford, Connecticut.<br />

creciera convirtiéndose en una gran empresa<br />

manufacturera, logrando emplear a más <strong>de</strong> 12,000<br />

personas y expandirse a los principales países <strong>de</strong>l<br />

Linus <strong>Yale</strong> Jr; his father, Linus <strong>Yale</strong> Sr, was a highly skilled<br />

precision mechanic and owner of <strong>Yale</strong> Lock Shop.<br />

Linus <strong>Yale</strong> Jr, wanted to follow his father’s steps and became<br />

the leading lock expert of his time, introducing the<br />

Monitor Bank Lock in 1862, which marked the transition<br />

from key-based bank locks to dial or combination ones.<br />

But it was on 1865 when he created his most important<br />

invention: the cylin<strong>de</strong>r lock. The cylin<strong>de</strong>r lock became a<br />

popular style of locking mechanism and today it is the<br />

most wi<strong>de</strong>ly used type of door lock in the world.<br />
