YaleY90S/45/129/1 Maximum Security Steel Padlock, 45mm, pack of 1, suitble for sheds, Black

I bought this to replace a 20m year old brass Yale lock which has withstood the weather and never let me down in all that time.I am replacing it because there have been a few shed break ins in my area lately, and my old lock really doesn't look the part now, it is showing its age and thieves will be aware of that.This lock does look sturdier but to be honest I 'think' maybe I should have bought a much higher rated lock but where do you draw the line, as you can spend £150 plus, but are they really that much better ?Also is there a weaker entry point than the lock ?Is the hasp and staple as good and strong as it could be ?I am not a security expert and there are so many variables... nightmare !Anyway for now I am very happy as it is definitely a step up from my previous lock.

Using these with hardened steel chain to secure my Witter bike carrierShame I didn't check, they are £9 each less in another outlet

I had to order a replacement. When I opened the package the lock would not open. After many times trying to open it I did have success but was hit and miss from then on. Possibly just a one off but not acceptable for an expensive lock. Will see how the next one goes.

A compact smart looking high quality security padlock that is manufactured by a Company that has a superb Heritage whose products epitomises strength and quality. In summary: a product that’s fit for purpose. Recommended!
