How do I choose the right padlock for my needs?

Choosing the right padlock depends on several factors like security level, location, and type of lock. What will you be using it for?

I need it for my bike, but I also want to use it for my shed.

For a bike, consider a lightweight but sturdy lock like a U-lock. For your shed, a weather-resistant padlock with a higher security rating would be ideal.

What security features should I look for?

Look for features like hardened steel shanks, anti-pick pins, and a good locking mechanism. A higher security rating is also important.

Are there any brands you recommend?

Yes, brands like Master Lock, ABUS, and Kryptonite are known for their quality and reliability in padlocks.
