GUARD 2 in. Double Locking Solid Brass Padlock, KA1
The 2 in. solid brass body on the KA1 keyed-alike number. Ordering to a named keying group is how you keep a site on one key across several orders rather than ending up with a drawer of odd locks.
Double locking means the shackle is locked at both the heel and the toe rather than at the heel alone. It is the difference that matters most in a padlock: a single-locking shackle can be twisted or prised open at the free end, and a double-locking one cannot.
The body is solid brass with a sanded finish, the shackle is hardened steel and chrome plated, the springs are stainless and the cylinder uses pick-resistant mushroom pins. Brass is the reason to choose this over a plated steel padlock outdoors, since it does not rust and the cylinder keeps turning after a winter.

Questions
What does KA1 mean?
It is the keyed-alike group. Every lock ordered on KA1 takes the same key, including ones you buy later, as long as the group is still available.
Can I mix KA1 with other keyed alike locks?
No. Different keyed-alike groups take different keys. Pick one group and stay on it.
What is double locking?
The shackle locks at heel and toe rather than at the heel alone, so it resists twisting and prying.
How many keys come with it?
Two.
