And it’s resistant to physical attacks and bump keys (which typically make it easier to open locks without a key). This lock uses a boron alloy and Master Lock’s BumpStop cylinder design to achieve a Grade 6 ASTM security rating, the best rating a padlock can have. Using one key, you can lock the door to your shed and also lock down tools inside the shed with the other locks. These all use the same key, which means less weight on your keychain. You can save money by buying up to eight keyed-alike locks. Ultimately, the ABUS Diskus stands out for its real-world performance, which is all that really matters to most folks.Ĭosting around $30, the Master Lock ProSeries 6230N isn’t necessarily a cheap lock, but it’s an affordable commercial-strength padlock that’s suitable for most sheds. Without industry standards, we need to rely on user reviews and can’t make direct comparisons with other brands as easily.īut even with a lack of transparency on ABUS’s part, we recommend this lock to secure your shed. The second flaw is that this shed lock uses a proprietary security rating that doesn’t align with recognized industry standards. First, this expensive lock sometimes costs $60 or more, which could be overkill for a shed. We found two flaws with the ABUS Diskus during our research. Because the discs work differently than pins, it’s harder to pick this lock. The 6-pin cylinder uses a unique design with discs instead of traditional locking pins.
We like that there’s a small rubber cylinder cover that keeps dust and water out of the keyhole. This lock’s stainless steel body and shackle accumulate less rust, which can compromise padlocks left out in the elements. For extra security, there’s also an anti-cut plate inside the lock to help protect against drilling and sawing. This disc-type padlock protects its shackle with a cover that makes it difficult to break with a bolt cutter. During our research, we consistently found glowing reviews for the ABUS Diskus.
