SterlingASP181 81mm Armoured Steel Padlocks, Grey

I’ve bought several container locks in the past and this is one of the best. Comes with 3 keys and is easy to use which is what you need when trying to open a container door outside at night in the middle of winter!

It replaced the same model I had but lost keys it was ten years old The new one was perfect replacement.

The sturdy plastic 'bubble' packing on this lock had been sliced open along the side, far enough to remove the lock without further action.It could be that the first owner found that it was too big or too small for its intended purpose...or it could be that a problem with the lock was the reason it was returned.Time will tell, I needed a lock quickly, I can only hope that I won't regret not sending it back.

Super quality lock, still going 6 months later through this awful British weather. Good brand, good quality.

What can I say, its a padlock.

I bought this lock because of its high security rating. Out of the packet it feels light and the mechanism feels cheap with loads of slack. The actual locking pin/bar seems okay. Examine the keyway and you will see it's not complex or tight. I was going to mock it at that point but, before use, I tested it.When testing a lock, you start with bypasses or raking. Raking is low skill picking and should not be possible on any lock proporting to be "high security". This was raked open in under 5 seconds. Subsequent attempts took under 3. This is absolutely disgraceful and this should never be sold as a "high security product".I am returning.

I Have In The Past Purchased The Smaller Version Of These Locks But Disappointed With This Larger Version. Everything About Them Is Of A Low Quality, Rough Cheap Finish, Locking Mechanism Feel Dry & Crunchy, Cheap Keys, Cannot See Any Brass As Seen In The Displaying Picture, I Think It's A Very Cheap China Rip Off.

Feels sturdy
