Master Lock Magnum Heavy Duty Solid Steel Silver Padlock with Key, Cut Resistant Gate Locks for Outdoor Fence or Shed, 14/32 x 2 x 15/16 Inches, M930XKADLH

I have an outdoor storage building so if anyone has ever had one then you know how flimsy those doors are that they put on these storage buildings so I installed a metal grate, security door inside the inner door frame and needed a really strong lock that someone couldn't just take a hammer to or use a simple grinder to cut it off and steal my tools before I even realized anything was going on. Now this is a little pricey so I couldn't afford to buy a second one to actually try to destroy for testing purpose but as soon as I open the package I was immediately impressed with this lock. It has a very large shank size so make sure it will fit through whatever you are using. It has worked perfectly for my needs and has several features that made it worth the extra cost. First off, any of the cheap locks you buy will bust open with a couple of good hammer hits or a simple grinder will cut the shank in less than a minute but this lock is super heavy duty and I doubt very seriously anyone can break it with a hammer. Also, it is specifically designed with a cut resistant metal alloy to prevent anyone from using a grinder to cut it off. Then lastly, I didn't think much about it when I bought it but now after using it I have found that the rubber insert that covers the key slot will greatly extend the life of your lock by preventing weather and conditions to allow grit, sand or whatever to get inside the key slot. Now that I have this lock on my outdoor building I feel so much more secure and I am not jumping up at every little noise I hear to check on my building. This lock would also be great for outdoor driveway gates and anything that you are locking up with a heavy duty chain. I would definitely buy another one if I need one. Well worth the money I spent. Excellent value.

Got this to go with a chain lock and it works great. Solid

Fits well when locking my ATV with a large linked steel chain. The rubber flap over the key cylinder opening is flimsy and won't stay closed.

I bought for large steel work cabinet. Heavy duty. Large shank. If you are buying be sure your hasp is large enough for 7/16 shank.

I purv hase the lock almost a year ago but i installed in September I return after 10 months to our house the lock was solid stuck I need to spray WD4 and use a hammer to open it , I have to mention that was outside but protected from elements. My old Master luck was 15 years old and never rusted the new one is built whit whit cheap metal.I called the company and they want us to grease it every 3 months...🤔 so I have to make a special trip back to my summer home from FL just to make sure its going to open 🤣 ...what a piece of junk.I'm surprised for the positive reviews it got, out of he box it deserves 5 stars but performance 1 star.

I use this every day to secure an over the road, OTR, semi trailer. All locks can be defeated, but this one is going to take some advanced planning. it is big solid and as a plus has a weather seal over the key slot to help prevent road debris from gumming up the works.

Great quality, heavy and nice cover over key opening to protect from weather.
