Padlock, Set Your Own Word Combination Lock, 2 in. Wide, 175DLHWD

These locks are very durable and eliminate the need for an extra key that may get lost someday. If you're thinking about buying it, do it. I'm very happy I did.

Great combination lock with extended length for exterior metal fence. Easy to set combination with capability to reset combination countless times as needed. Brass for exterior use

Work good for my purpose. Decent quality.

The case is NOT brass, just painted metal! The lock works good and is typical Master quality.

Love not needing a key. We set them all to one combination & change # so easily if we feel a need.

Heavy duty lock with a long latch. Used for a lock on a gate.

I've used Master locks since I was a kid in grade school back in the 60s. The name "Master Lock" until today stood for quality, dependability, safety, durability and ruggedness. About 15 years ago, I purchased 5 of the "set your own combination" padlocks made by Master for use on gates here at my farm and for tool boxes. These locks have stood the test of time outside in bad weather, dust, Texas heat, and are still giving me great service to this day, which is why I ordered 5 more here on Amazon. My new Master Locks arrived today, 12-7-2011 and I was eager to change the combinations from 0-0-0-0 (as I have done in the past with my original MADE IN THE USA Master Locks) to the same combination as my older Master Locks. As I examined the shorter locks (I got one with the long hasp and four with short hasps) I noticed the short ones were no longer housed in a bright brass case, but now came in a regular steel case that was spray painted a dull black. When attempting to set the new combinations, two of the short locks and my long hasp lock none of them would allow me to re-set the combination. Two problems (that I can determine) why these locks won't allow this... #1. The small "key" for resetting the combinations that now comes with the lock is so thin now, it is not durable enough to twist inside the access hole to re-trigger the tumbler. The cheap key bends when attempting to turn it 90 degrees. Those darned folks in China, now they are even skimping on this little key! #2. The rotary wheels on the new locks, do NOT click into place on the back of the lock (like my old Master Locks) where the numbers are suppose to align-up with a indentation where you dial the numbers. The "slop" in the action on these new locks is so bad, it's probably the reason the tumblers won't set when attempting to rotate the key. I spent half and hour trying to set the combination on three of the locks and I gave up. The tolerances are not as good with the Made In China Master Locks as the fit and tolerance as my old reliable MADE IN THE USA Master Locks. This is the first time in my 5 year relationship with Amazon that I am returning a purchase. Up to this time, everything I've ordered has been acceptable. These new Master Locks are no longer made in the United States (by craftsmen, like my older Master locks) and when I inspected the packages this afternoon, I confirmed my suspicions where they came from. After nearly 50 years of being a loyal Master Lock customer, I will probably not ever buy one of these poorly made locks from them again. I'll be looking for locks made here in the USA. I should have known when they switched from a durable brass housing to a cheaper thin-walled steel case that looks like it was spray-painted with a can of Krylon, that the executives of Master Lock decided "cheaper is better." And indeed, "cheaper" also means "ADIOS Amigos," it was nice knowing you Master Lock in earlier years, but not now.

Love this long shackle padlock. Like being able to set/reset the combo.

Even after I oiled them up they are very hard to work with … they replace them and the new ones are working well so far!

Super Qualität - auch für draußen !

Buena marca

This lock has worked well and has stood up in the rainy weather so far.

Il est facile de changer le code et d'utiliser le cadenas au quotidien. Idéal pour "lockers" de condo, car la tige en U est mince et longue. Il est solide et semble très sécuritaire.
