Pros & Cons

Pros

For $9, these are a pretty good value and i'll recommend them. This is surprisingly good. It’s yale so expect it to be a good brand!

Locking and unlocking actions feel smooth and precise. No jamming or excessive play in the mechanism. Spring loaded shackle for easier unlocking.



Cons

It's like a meditation but a meditation that could technically be construed as breaking and entering. Which makes these yales even more embarassing.

No effort was made to finish these or blend them with the body of the lock, as is standard on non-rubber-coated brass or aluminum locks.


This probably doesn't reduce the holding strength of the pins sufficiently to make a torque attack preferable to simply prying ...  Read More

Price


For $9, these are a pretty good value and i'll recommend them.


I’m definitely getting the value for my money and i highly recommend it!


However, the four pack is currently $12.


50 each, a little on the more expensive side.

Packaging/appearance


I got this yale small covered aluminum padlock set to secure the two crawlspaces in my daughter's room.


The packaging was the only thing that looks cheap but that coukd just be me.

    I realistically won’t know how good these are until i’ve had them for a reasonable amount of time outdoor locks typically stop working when they rust internally


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The locks look to be of decent quality for the price i do like the black masterlock more but with this you get two instead of one at the same price


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The locks are obviously not meant to be heavy duty or unpickable but do provide some protection


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I got them to lock my storage shed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The shed has plastic handles where the lock goes so it would be easy to knock the entire handles off if a thief really wanted to the lock is just a deterrent


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Overall the locks have been working fine so far i’ll update if they get stuck or the key fails


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It did not work on my luggage but it might work for others plus its not tsa approved
