Padlock SYNOLOGY ABUS 32161, steel shackle 20 x 165 mm

Padlock SYNOLOGY ABUS 32161 with a 20 x 165 mm steel shackle is a mechanical locking solution designed for securing gates, doors, storage units and outdoor equipment. The long hardened steel shackle allows the lock to pass through larger hasps, chain links or multiple attachment points, providing flexible placement options where a standard shackle would not reach. The lock body is built to withstand everyday outdoor use and offers keyed operation for controlled access.

Advantages

This padlock features a long 165 mm hardened steel shackle combined with a compact lock body to enable secure fastening through bulky fittings and multiple anchor points. The keyed mechanism provides simple, reliable operation and the construction resists common mechanical attacks associated with routine use. Its design balances reach and toughness for applications that require a longer shackle without sacrificing basic protection.

Suitable for

• Securing garden and driveway gates with deep or offset hasps
• Locking storage containers, sheds and outdoor cabinets
• Fastening through chain links or multiple rings where extra shackle length is needed
• Light commercial applications such as small workshops and equipment enclosures

Key specifications

• Shackle material: hardened steel
• Shackle dimensions: 20 mm diameter x 165 mm length
• Lock type: keyed padlock (mechanical)
• Suitable for outdoor use and gate, door, storage applications

How to use

Insert the key into the cylinder, turn to retract the locking bolt, thread the shackle through the hasp, chain or anchor points, then release the key to engage the bolt. Verify the shackle is fully seated and the lock is secure before leaving the site. For daily locking and unlocking, operate the key smoothly and avoid forcing the mechanism if it resists; inspect and clean the cylinder periodically to ensure reliable action.

Usage recommendations

For prolonged outdoor performance, install the padlock on fittings that minimize direct exposure to mud and standing water. Apply a suitable silicone-based lubricant to the shackle and keyway occasionally to prevent corrosion and ensure smooth key operation. If higher security or corrosion resistance is required, consider complementing this padlock with additional security measures such as hardened chains, protective hasps, or a weather cover.
