What Makes a Good Padlock for a Container?
A proper shipping container padlock needs to handle more than the elements. Look for:
-
Hardened steel body and shackle for cutting resistance
-
Slide bolt or closed shackle to fit standard lock boxes
-
Weather-resistant finish for outdoor use
-
CEN rating where insurance approval matters
