  • Excellent and durable
Style: Set Your Own Combination, 2 Pack
Don’t waste your money on no name crappy locks or you’re just going to have problems that waste more time and money than you can save on cheap crappy locks. These are very solid. Only thing to watch out for is don’t lose the little key-like tools used to set the combination. These aren’t keys, just little twist levers only needed to change the combo (which requires unlocking the lock so they don’t need to be keys). ... show more

Style: Set Your Own Combination, 2 Pack
Solid lock combo lock, pay the extra few dollars and get this instead of some cheap off branded lock. I have 3 of these now and recommend them. I've left these out in the rain and snow and they've held up great

  • Great for sheds. Great for sheds.
Style: Set Your Own Combination, 1 Pack
This is a review of the Master Lock 178D Set Your Own Combo Padlock. I will do my normal list of specs-cool features and then list a summary as to my thoughts after using. -This is made of die cast metal and has a black finish to help protect it from the outside elements.) -It has a 2” wide die cast case and a 1” shackle. Diameter of the shackle is 5/16”. -Comes with 1 change key. -Operate by using a four digit number combination you set. -Unlike a lot of locks, this is a very well built solid lock designed for outdoor use. -To use, enter the combo and push down the shackle and then pull it up to unlock. Summary – I am using these on my two sheds. The combo is easy to set. You simply unlock the lock – open the shackle, insert the key – turn 90 degrees, set the combo of your choice and then remove the key. I really like this feature as I wanted my two sheds to have the same combo so I do not forget and for simplicity. The movement of the dials has a slight clicking and bump feel as you move the numbers vs. being an easy roll. (Might get smoother with time.) I like this as it is easy to lock your digits in and know they are aligned right. Whatever you do, do not forget the combo. The key is only for changing the code and will not open the lock. I am very happy with this lock and all master locks in general so far. Good make and reliable. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Durable & easy to use
Style: Set Your Own Combination, 4 Pack
Have purchased 20 + of these locks. Love the ability to customize combination. Secure and Durable. Only issue if locks are are used outside in upward or harsh weather conditions numbers wear out and begin to stick.

  • Decent combination lock.
Style: Set Your Own Combination, 1 Pack
Seems like a good quality padlock. I like the fact that you can set your own combination. No more remembering some abscure random numbers. Time will tell on the durability.

  • I bought two to replace old versions of the same product
Style: Set Your Own Combination, 1 Pack
We lock our front and back gates with these locks. They are in the elements, unprotected from sun/rain. The last ones (same model) were in service since 1994(!), and were good reliable easy to use locks. They were 'used' (unlocked/locked) several times a week. I decided to replace them because the numbers on the combination wheels were becomming a bit corroded and difficult to read, they were getting more difficult to turn (not that bad though), and the lock mecahnism wasn't working as well as it used to. Sometimes the lock didn't latch when locking, and you had to bang it on the gate to get it to latch. I tried lubricating the locks with triflow, which helped for a couple weeks, but then became stingy again. I thought that after 19 years, I could afford to buy a couple more. So I've been using the two replacements for a month now, and they're great. The numbers are easier to read, the wheels are easy to turn, and the lock mechanism works perfectly. I assume these will last ~20 years like the last set. By the way, it's a bit counter-intuitive, but to open the lock, set the dials to the combination, then push the shackle *IN* to disengage the lock. Some people set the number, then pull, but that's not it works. ... show more
