Description

Padlocks, Deadbolts and Doorknobs

Design, material, shackle diameter, and shackle clearance all impact a padlock’s durability.

  • Brass padlocks – cheaper, rust-proof

  • High-security padlocks – contain hardened steel, shrouded shackle, pick-resistant key cylinder, and/or reinforced locking mechanism

  • Laminated steel – multiple pieces of steel stacked one upon another

  • Discus padlocks

  • Anvil and shutter locks

  • Combination padlocks

  • Shackleless padlocks

Some padlocks are better than others. For example, brass locks are cheap and weather-resistant but don’t offer the same protection as hardened steel. Shackles that are 10mm or less in diameter aren’t thick enough. The longer the shackle clearance, the easier it is to cut. Thick and short is the sweet spot.
