How to Select a Lock for Your Storage Unit

The three most common types of locks include combination locks, padlocks, and disk locks. Let’s discuss each one separately.

Combination Locks
Combination locks require no keys, so they’re easy to use. However, there are downfalls. First, you need to remember your combination. Forget it, and you’ll be spending time, either guessing or using a hacksaw to break it off. Second, if hacksaw or bolt cutters will work for you, then they’ll work for others as well. Third, many will eventually rust or corrode and will need replacing. Pay extra for a heavy-duty lock with a thick, short shackle made of hardened steel that resists prying, sawing, and cutting. Check the size of the latch and find the largest lock that will fit.

Padlocks
Padlocks use keys, which manipulate pins inside the cylinder to unleash the shackle. How many spy movies have we seen where a keyed lock gets picked within seconds, given the right tools? They can also be rekeyed easily or opened with a bump key. Look for a high-quality lock with a thick, short shackle and bumping countermeasures.

Disk Locks
Disk locks typically cost more. The shrouded design shields the shackle, protecting it from bolt cutters, and some have circular keys making it challenging to pick. Sure, you could grind this lock off with a skill saw, but that would make noise and requires electricity.

The reality is that, given the right tools and enough time, any lock can be disabled. Sunlight, rain, the lock’s size, materials used, and outside temperatures all affect the usefulness and longevity. Sorry for the pun, but the “key” here is to use a lock that causes a would-be thief to pass over your unit because it will cause a commotion, or take too long to open, leaving them vulnerable to the prying “eyes” of security cameras.

If you would like to discuss the lock for your storage unit in detail, call or message us at (205) 341-7128.
