BRINKS Heavy Duty Padlock with Key - 70mm Discus Keyed Lock for Storage Shed, Garage, Storage Lockers, Sliding Doors, Tool Box, and Cabinets

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This lock works perfectly for my SPECIFIC application. That is, I use this lock on my shed. I wanted a heavy-duty lock that would be difficult for someone to use a bolt-cutting tool on. I recommend this for SPECIFIC applications.

Needed these for storage lockers and it was a great value for all 4 of them. Storage unit wanted to charge $20 a month (yep, per MONTH) for locks so, of course, I came straight to Amazon. This style is recommended for storage units as less easily broken into, and we are going to be several states away while things are in storage. I didn't want to have to worry about everything I own being in storage. Now I won't.

Quality lock and works smoothly. I haven't tried to destroy it with a bolt cutter or saw; however, because of it's narrow throat I suspect it's very difficult to squeeze a bolt cutter onto the shackle.

Great locks. Easy to use. Heavy duty.

I'm in the process of moving and packing and needed locks for the shipping containers. For the price, they will work for what I need.They do open and close ok, but they just seem rather flimsy and weak. It rattles when shaken, more when in the unlocked position. Yeah, they look sturdy and hopefully they will be a deterrent for people wanting to get inside. If someone really wanted in, I can imagine that these wouldn't be a huge challenge. However, even with a much more expensive lock that really couldn't be defeated, the slider hasp on the door of the container is only so strong, so...my thought is that the lock is about as safe as the latch that it is holding the door shut.As for being weatherproof, it seems to be fine in above freezing weather, but I imagine that it would be a challenge to open if it was full of ice.The pack of four comes with four keys and all keys fit all locks. If you need more keys, it uses the same blank as a 'Master Lock' brand lock.I tried the trick of pulling the key that came with the lock part way out to open and they will not unlock. The key has to be fully in to open the lock. However, when I tried a key from a different lock, a Master Lock padlock, I was able to open this lock with the key partway in. Hopefully nobody else tries this.The key can only be removed from the lock when it is locked.I was hoping to reuse these for my new garage that I'm building at my new place, but I think I'll buy something a little more secure for that application.

Purchased for a storage unit and it worked very well. I'm not close to this particular unit so I wanted to make sure I chose a lock that would dissuade someone from breaking into. I had no issue with the keys which can occur and would purchase again if necessary.

I have four storage units, and now I don't have to fumble for different keys. Each lock is easy to use, and my units are totally secure.

Great quality, size, color and look. Easy to use and open.
