PACLOCK's 90A-PRO Padlock, Buy American Act Compliant, 1/4" Diameter Hard. Stainless Steel Shackle, 1-3/16" Tall, High Performance 7-Pin Cylinder w/ 1 Key, Keyed Differently, Blue

I bought this for my girlfriend since I’ve been watching a little too much McNally and Lockpicking Lawyer.She needed it for work, and I didn’t want to cheap out and get her a master lock. Just days after getting it, someone decided to try and test the durability for us. Someone working at the same place decided to try and bash it open, and it held up well! I’m unsure why they thought it was a good idea when there’s clearly a camera being used, and they work there so there’s no guessing who tried to break into the locker by smashing the lock. On top of that, the manager's office was right next to the lockers!I know it’s not impossible to break or pick this lock, but even that little bit of extra effort can help out sometimes. I think the extra cost is well worth it.The only issue we had was with opening it in the beginning. The key almost got stuck because I couldn’t open it, but with a lot of wiggling, it finally popped open and hasn’t given any problems since.

This is a really cool, well made lock. I really had to study it and spend time with it before I could open it. It’s gritty and difficult to pick!!

It's an industry standard for a reason, tight tolerances, seven Pyne total six of which are security pins (alternating spool and serrated and standard in the seventh slot), no spring resistance on the core: picking one open, you have to know what you're doing and be hone in your skills. I'd put it ahead of dozens of locks costing two or three times as much by other companies.Place it comes in a whole bunch of really cool colors so that's super cute and fun. Whether it's customized for your personality or color-coded locking systems, you can go nuts get a whole rainbow of the paclock pro 90 a's.

Very good lock. This was the 3rd one I bought, and like many people I bought this for "lock sport/lock picking". As far as lock picking goes, this one sucked. I've managed to pick it open twice over a period of time, but I have yet to "figure it out" Both of the last two were pretty difficult, but once I figured them out I was able to pick them dozens of times before giving them away and buying a new one.That being said, that difficulty makes this a good lock.

Anyone who has watched the Lock Picking Lawyer on YouTube knows that Paclock makes good products, and that they're engaged with and responsive to their customers. Because of that, I bought several of these in the standard size.When I wanted to get some of this model of lock (90A-Pro, keyed alike) with a longer shackle (2"), I called them. They told me to place the order on Amazon, then give them the order number, so that they could adjust it in their system. I did. Unfortunately, the locks that were delivered had the standard shackle length.I called back to their customer service line and (as before) very quickly got a live, pleasant, helpful person, who apologized for the error, and gave me two options: Paclock could provide a longer shackle and I could install it, or they could mail me two new locks with the appropriate length shackle. I have some ability with a screwdriver, but I'm not confident taking locks apart, and don't have the tiny screwdrivers needed for the set screws. I asked them if they would mind making the shackle length an extra 1/2" longer, which they graciously agreed to do.A few days later, I had my 2 new (and longer!) keyed-alike 90A-Pro locks. They're perfect!I know a lot of companies get bad reviews because people are more likely to complain than praise on a public forum, and unfortunately that leads to the impression that nobody has quality products or service anymore. Paclock excels at both quality and service. If you want great locks and great service, buy from Paclock.

They're some of the best sub-30 padlocks you can get, and are American made. They're pretty darn good security for the price, good tolerances and a great challenge for locksport. The only thing I would knock them for is the top-of-keyway slipping out so easily, but that's actually a security feature, so it's really a plus. I find it is a preferred brand for consistent quality. Bravo, as usual!

The media could not be loaded. Well made, easy to disassemble. Not an easy lock to pick or rake quickly. Terrible feedback and crunchy pin movement. Core has a little bit of play within the padlock, which adds to the sloppy feel. I can open mine easily in under a minute, but that’s only because I’ve been practicing on this lock for a couple weeks and have memorized the binding order. I would use this as a gym locker lock and feel pretty confident about it. Ultimately if someone wants in, they’ll just cut it, but if someone relatively unskilled were raking and bypassing locks quietly, they’d probably end up skipping this one with how long it would take them to defeat it. I both love and hate this padlock, and will probably buy more Paclock products in the future. Good stuff.

I bought this for locksport and I have to say it is extremely frustrating to pick. Which is probably a good thing for most buyers! It has a nice finish and is difficult to pick open. 5 stars!
