Removable Shackle?

Information about locks themselves. Questions, tips and lock diagram information should be posted here.

Sounds like a removable shackle give the package more flexibility, so in the case of the 590 it may be a good choice for 10 extra bucks. Hmm seems like the 590/MCS/Removable shackle would be a Rolls Royce of locks - thats for sure....

Hmmmm :?:


Definitely, with metal there is always a way. But from my idea of what you are building, idk How much of a issue this would be with it being 1/4 inch steel. they would need the jaws of life to bend it up. The shorter the length from the center (where the hasp is) to the corner, the harder it would be to bend. . It could always be reinforced on the inside. If you keep the gap between the top of the box and bottom small enough, someone would be less likely to be able to get something in there to pry it up.
Success is the ability to go from one failure to the next without any loss of enthusiasm
