I needed to replace 3 padlocks of the same key way, that secure our back garden. (once an intruder is at the back the house he has unobserved access to doors and windows). Being north facing on a hill, we get extremes of weather and locks that can handle the environment were essential. These locks proved ideal, and arrived quickly. I especially like the plastic plug that seals the key hole

This is a lovely little padlock. I bought this to lock our outside cast iron gate because we had become fed up with the previous locks getting so stiff in the rain that we can't use them anymore.This seems like a much better bet because it is advertised as waterproof. (We seem to get a lot of water in Bolton)
One point we found was that if the lock is open and left on the gate in the rain it tends to let water in. This because the black casing on the bars leave bare metal underneath. This is reasonable. The cure is to either keep it locked or remove it to a dry place. When locked it seems very waterproof.
The lock works extremely well, feels very secure and is a very pretty colour.

Great choice, quick delivery and great locks.
Could not ask for more.

Cracking little lock this is. Fully waterproof and it’s been tested in the relentless rain Manchester. Through winter no less. I use mine for my garden shed.
Really does exactly what you want. I didn’t realise it’s size when I bought it though, I’ll probably end up getting a bigger version of it for increased security but the smaller one is still faultless.
I’d originally bought a different brand on Amazon for half the price but it just wasn’t actually waterproof even though it said it was. You really can’t trust the reviews on there.
In conclusion, this lock does exactly what it says it should, it stays secure and is fully waterproof.

For the first 6 months after purchase it looks as though it was an excellent buy.
Previous corrosion proof locks have proved to be anything but
I would recommend these without doubt
rubbish, cut through by thieves, 2 cycles pinched
AVOID AT ALL COSTS IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING OF VALUE

It’s a neat padlock with smooth operation. The keys were unmarked but a photograph enabled a key cutter to make copies. A determined effort would need to be made to break the lock so I feel reasonably confident about its security. Only time will tell whether it withstands cold wet weather but so far, so good.

Not as substantial as I’d expected (the perils of buying online!). However, this small padlock is certainly well made and so far has proven to be weather proof.
