PACLOCK's 90A-PRO Padlock, 1/4" Diameter Hard. Steel Shackle, 1-1/2" Tall, High Performance 7-Pin Cylinder w/ 1 Key, Keyed Differently, Silver

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!

Locksport fam, good people, great customer service. They even custom engraved my lock for basically pennies extra. A very secure and well made lock by most standards.

Always great service from these guys. I've been buy their locks exclusively for the past two years and have been totally satisfied. Martha M. in customer service is terrific!

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.

I ordered 2 of these as challenge locks. I haven't yet been able to pick them but they are nice quality.

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.

Once I have this lock mastered I will video tape it being picked for my Blue Belt submission for Lockport

This is a padlock. It both opens and closes. It needs the key to open, that seems important. If you don't know how locks work, you may need to visit your local library.

Look is very well built and finished, very secure 7 pin core. Family-owned business and made in USA. Highly recommended, don't waste your time with MasterLocks, buy this instead.
