Excellent purchase! - Coupling locks

Very reliable locking system. That's the gold standard for me. I've seen others not as good as this one for a reasonable price. The finish is heavily chromed and the screw attaches on either side. Very strong. Easy on and off with one key. Without a key, it may be difficult for others.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

This is the best built in lock I've bought

Cost wise this is the best built in lock I've bought, I have a closed trailer shop and can't afford to buy these 2nd one and 3 hundred locks to buy. So I buy the heaviest and strongest removal locks I can find for a reasonable price. These are some of the best I've seen or bought.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Has worked well for me over the years

I have 5 followers, one for each! They close well and tightly and are difficult to crack! I lost my key 2 years ago and it took a locksmith over 45 minutes to drill and drill and drill to finally get it off my trailer! The trick is to put the lock in the back, it wasn't easy for the locksmith to even get to the lock and then it was very difficult to drill! Great locks for me!

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Fits securely on my Featherlite hitch

Fits securely on my Featherlite hitch with 2 5/16" ball size. Trailer and drive away with it and I hope it does the job. When I first attached it to the hitch , I wasn't sure if it couldn't be removed, but after trying my best to remove it, I figured it would be secure enough to deter thieves.If I run into problems with it over time, I will I will update this review accordingly.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Crumpled

DO NOT BUY. CUT IN 30 SECONDS!

DO NOT BUY THIS LOCK FOR SEVERAL REASONS!1. It binds when the U-bolt is not inserted into the lock body evenly. Then it needs to be installed freely after plugging in for the key to release and lock. Therefore, it does not fit tightly to the ball body of the trailer.2. I had a lock toggle switch lock error so I couldn't unlock it after installing it. Luckily I had a saw with me and saw it off IN 30 SECONDS! I was blown away by how soft the metal was and how quickly I cut through it. (seeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Fatal error, no longer opens.

The product seemed great and worked well when I first put it on my trailer. However, when I removed and re-locked it (from the fob), the inner tumbler (the inner circle of the lock) rotated clockwise about 45 degrees while the key was out. If you look at the picture you will see that the slots in the lock are offset. Once this happens, it is not possible to return the key to unlock it again. Right now it's actually a paperweight. Revain's return process was excellent so I might try orderingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • anti-drill device.
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

This is a very strong lock, but its internal parts are prone to corrosion.

Bought one for my 2 5/16" implement trailer and one for my 2" snowmobile trailer. This is a pretty solid lock - both the stock and body are very solid. It comes with 4 keys. Both locks open and close well and fit securely in the ball sockets. They seem to resist corrosion well. I like the fact that both ends of the stock lock are closed as some of the cheaper locks only close on one end. I also love that they arrived via UPS within two days. It usually takes me over a week to receive UPSโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Set contains two cylinder keys. This type of lock is harder to pick and much more secure than others.
Cons
  • So So

High hitch lock

Fastway Fortress hitch lock fits perfectly, has all the features I wanted in a hitch lock, looks stunning and looks great on my trailer. It's important to note that I have an Eual-i-zer weight distribution hitch and was looking for a kit where the receiver lock would lock the same as the hitch lock and hitch latch lock. I haven't found a towbar lock that locks with the same key as the other two. Expressway, please note. However, in the set I found, all three had the same keys, but the receiverโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Unique shackle shape prevents the hitch from tearing off the trailer.
Cons
  • Very expensive
