Padlocks & Security FAQs
What is a close shackle padlock?
A close shackle padlock has a shackle that sits tight against the padlock body, leaving very little gap for bolt cutters or similar tools to get a grip. This makes it more resistant to forced entry than a standard long-shackle padlock.
What's the difference between a close shackle and a long shackle padlock?
A close shackle padlock has minimal clearance around the shackle for better tamper resistance, while a long shackle padlock has more room, useful where you need to lock through a wider fitting such as a hasp or chain link.
What padlock should I use for outdoor or site security?
A weather-resistant or close shackle padlock is generally better suited to outdoor and site use, since an exposed long shackle is easier to force and more prone to corrosion over time.
