what a piece of junk

It's not so easy to close. and it's brand new. don't take it back, so I'm sticking with it. DO NOT BUY HERE. If you want to buy a Master Lock, buy it from Home Depot or another store that will accept the return of the defective item.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

Bad design and easy to cut

Things to know about this lock.1. The lock can be installed backwards, preventing you from inserting the key to open.2. If fitted upside down, it can be cut with a small hacksaw in 5 minutes. Overall this is a cheap padlock with poor construction. Don't use it to protect anything serious.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Suitable

Does a great job keeping prying eyes away

Works great! Customization options are ideal for reusable or hard-to-lock items that require little space. The keyhole entrance rotates, making it a bit difficult to insert the key into the lock. Overall very impressed and even very drunk I couldn't manage to mow the lawn at 1am.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Expensive

The bolt diameter is too big for my purposes.

I was trying to replace a similar lock from the same manufacturer to scare my boat trailer a bit. It turned out that the bolt diameter of this lock is slightly larger than the lock I lost and this one will not fit through the locking pin holes. I know they make the same lock with a slightly narrower deadbolt, but I couldn't find it.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Modern

It's not for any piece of security.

Lock with combination lock. You can lift it up in less than a minute with a single paper clip. There is only one ratchet. You can cover it with a piece of aluminum from a soda can in a minute or two. The bracket is flexible. The key is incredibly difficult to turn when the shackle goes through the lock body. This is the second master lock I've bought to secure a cheap plastic tool box. In both cases, the locks are easier to pick than the plastic of the toolbox itself. I'm incredibly…

Pros
  • Country of manufacture: USA
Cons
  • Without machine

Great locks but follow the instructions.

This is my third master lock of this type so I must like it. I had to remove two with bolt cutters (shockingly easy with just about any padlock available) because I had locked my stuff in such a way that the padlock was inaccessible. Remember to ALWAYS insert the shackle on the correct side of the lock. The instructions say so, but you will lose and forget them. Otherwise you won't have room to insert the key and turn it again to unlock it. So one star deducted for my own stupidity. Other than…

Pros
  • Multi-spring lock
Cons
  • Expensive

excellent lock for my stairs

I am satisfied with this lock. My apartment has very high ceilings, so I only needed to climb the stairs to change the lightbulbs (I'm 5'1" and still have to climb at least half the stairs). She was able to lock my stairs to no avail. but prevents my homeowner and handyman from using the stairs. One day I came home to find that they were using my stairs inside the building to do repairs without my permission. This wonderful little castle put an end to that! has not yet glued and perfect. I…

Got it to block electronic conversation.

So my son has a small TV in his room. My husband is a gamer and has almost every game ever made. It was essentially passed down to my son. His TV fits in a closet in his room, as does a Wii U and Nintendo Switch console, PS Vita, controllers for everyone, etc. I don't let him access it during the school week. Depending on his week, he may have access at the weekend. This lock is long enough to fit through door handles. That's why we keep it closed. It fit perfectly. With 2 keys, one for mum and
