Handy lock that works well except in feezing weather
I use these on my outdoor storage sheds and they work great since you don't have to carry keys. But they freeze up in winter weather and can't be opened. The only lock I find that works in winter weather are 'receiver locks" that are used lock a trailer hitch to a vehicle. (Sounds strange but they work). Just drop it down through your door latch with the rubber cap up. The rubber cap keeps moisture from getting in to the lock. The draw back is I have to switch back to using keys in the winter.
Master Lock 175D Outstanding
This is an outstanding lock. The combination is easy to set so you can hold one combination for several locks. It is also tough as nails and resists corrosion very well. Great buy.
Durable, but a seemingly "yesterday" design.
A lock is a lock unless you're looking for a super powered lock that is invincible from cutting or hacking. I use this lock to secure a cabinet at work the contains office supplies. The lock is more than durable enough, "looks big & mean," but when it comes to changing the combination, you have to use a supplied key to put it into "set the code" mode.
I prefer locks that allow you to open it with the code & spin it around, push down the shackle to change the combo. This lock requires a separate key as I mentioned.
There are some upsides to having that separate key-- no one who finds the lock unlocked could change the combination and relock it on something causing you to be unable to access what's locked. This would probably be advisable for situations where more than one person have the combination.
In situations where only one person has the combo and you do not plan to leave the lock open & unattended, I prefer the "all in one" style that doesn't require an external key to change the combination.
