Heavy Duty Outdoor Combination Padlock – Weatherproof Resettable 4-Digit Padlock for Gates, Sheds & Fences – Hardened Steel Shackle, Keyless Combo Lock (1 Pack)

Great lock. You have to depress it in order to open it which just gives you an extra feature of security. Price point is spot on for a lock that you can change the combination code, but you need a key to do so. That means no one can change the combination code without the key. All other locks I have seen, anyone with a similar lock who knows your combination code can change the combination code on their own, but not with this lock. It is easy to open the lock with the combination code entered. It is a heavy duty lock, not light weight. It does have a thick handle so it doesn't fit just any latch, but it can fit any chain. High quality. Works every time thus far. It is easy to set your own combination code. I did it on the first try.

Kingsley Combination Padlock - Set Your Own Combination Things have been picking up legs and walking off on my property lately. Someone broke into a locked shed of mine and easily manipulated it open. I had lots of valuable tools and equipment stolen just after my late husband passed away. So, I have been trying to be proactive to protect what I have left. I actually purchased more than one padlock in addition to this one. I placed them on various places on the property. One of the locks to lock my riding lawnmower to a post. I put one lock on my pool gate, and one on one of my two shops or sheds that I have on the outside of the door in addition to the regular door locks. I reserved this heavy lock for the main storage building that does have some valuables still in it. I may not stop a theft, but I'm going to try my best. Hopefully the new locks will at least deter would be thieves. The lock is heavy and well made and since the shackle is heavy, I feel better just knowing it is there. This is how I set up my new lock. The original number is 0-0-0, to set your own combination.1. Push in shackle and then pull up the shackle. You can only set the lock if it is open. 2. Insert the tool (small key ) in the side of the lock and Rotate the key/tool 90 degrees in either direction, the key/tool will stay in place. I could tell when I had it in the right spot, because when I pushed the tool/key it would stay in. If the tool is not all the way in, it wont set. 3. Push the shackle of the lock inside the lock chamber, and then. Set your own combination by turning dials to the convex line. 4. Turn the key/tool and then lock the lock to set the combination. shackle. Then the setting is completed. I did this and it worked the very first time. The picture is of me setting up the lock with the key in the side and then I set the combination, locked and unlocked the lock without issue. After reading these instructions, the directions indicated to remember your code and write it down in a safe place. I set a code easy for me to remember but hard for others to guess. I had no difficulty setting the lock or with it's functioning. The spindle was easy for me to manipulate, moving smoothly and locking securely. I like the size and feel of the lock and it is heavy and well made. I also like the brass dials, and that you have to have a key to change the code. I noticed in some of the other reviews that some of the customers had issues with the lock after several weeks of usage. So far, I've had my lock and been using it for about two weeks with no issues. Thus my five star rating. I will continue to use the lock and update my review if I have any issues with it in the future. So far it works great.

Good quality, well designed. Only complaint is the dials on the bottom can be a little stiff.

Product as described and feels better made than expected as it has a little heft to it, resetting the combination is simple as following instructions. I purchased 2 for use in an outdoor environment and will update in the future if any issues develop with weathering. The only improvement I can suggest is make the numbers bigger or brighter as it is hard to read in low light situations. It is now September 2018 and both locks are doing well. I did need to lubricate the one directly exposed to weather but both still work fine. I am updating as I am ordering another one for our clubs storage locker.

Nice padlock. I just got it a few minutes ago. It's nice and heavy, like a lock should be, and it didn't take long to read and understand the instructions (in legible English), and reset the combination. The shackle is small diameter, hardened, and there's lots of room up there. It does require a little tool (provided, but I'm pretty sure to lose it) to change the combination, though. Others locks don't, but some consider that a plus.

I have both this one and ABUS 160/50. They are similar size with ABUS being a little larger but not by much. If priority is corrosion resistance and/or security I'll recommend ABUS. If priority is looks and/or price I'll get Kingsley. It is the ONLY lock that I found that has all the features that I want (see below) with good reviews AND it is chromed. I'm happy with both serving different purposes. Both - have brass dials, - have double lock, - 4 dials, - require a key to change the PIN - very important so they do not change the PIN by accident, - require to scramble the dials before closing and thus can be closed w/o first setting the PIN so you can leave it for someone else to close it w/o having to give that person the PIN.

I bought two of these back in November to replace brass Master locks of similar design, which I had lost. I based my purchase on customer reviews. Bad move. Kingsley sent me an e-mail asking my opinion, which I couldn't provide at the time, as they were for future use. Well, it's now the future, and I'm in Breckenridge, CO. I used the locks to secure a cargo bag on the rear carrier of my RV using cables. One opened with no problem, but the other seem to be frozen inside. It was difficult to get the numbers to move individually. I finally used a heat gun to warm the lock, but to no avail. Finally a maintenance man at the resort cut the shackle using a small bolt cutter. He took it to the trash for me. I don't know what I'm going to do with the other. Probably trash it, too. I never had a problem traveling in any weather with the brass Master Locks. I will be ordering 2 after I finish this review. They seemed better made anyway.

Solid, heavy (sturdy feeling), very substantial lock. Stainless steel and brass (I guess). Comes with small key to program and reprogram combination. Unlike some cheaper dial locks I have, once the combo is set, I see no way to accidentally. (or even purposely) cause combo change unless the reset key is used. The apparant heft and quality was., frankly, unexpected. Just recently got it, but seems worth th the (not unreasonable) price. Very handsome.
