why did we design the unique Australian made Padlock Protection

2002 - 2003 Keith wanted to design a unique security product to replace a padlock and mild steel chain, this started the development of the

Australian made
highest security rated
locking system

replaces
a padlock and mild steel chain

its
unique

There is no other security device sold world wide that completely encloses the

• padlock
• its shackle
• and both sides of the chain inside a steel shroud

back to the question

Why was the steel shroud designed.

stop all methods

opportunistic
smash and grab
semi professional thieves

use to break
a padlock or cut mild steel chain

most people do not know

99% of thieves use one of three methods to break a padlock or cut a link in mild steel chain, they are

Padlock Protection consists of three components

• patented steel shroud manufactured from a steel billet using state of the art CNC machining technology
• customised padlock fits inside Padlock Protection patented steel shroud, the padlocks shackle has to be completely removable from the body, as you can see in the pictures below, allowing the shackle to be placed through the top of the steel shroud
• Padlock Protection bolt cutter proof chain 10mm diameter high tensile chain cannot be cut with a bolt cutter no matter how long the bolt cutter is

why do we include 10mm diameter bolt cutter proof chain with Padlock Protection

stop
thieves cutting chain

There was no point designing a unique security device to stop the three methods opportunistic, smash and grab and semi professional thieves use to break a padlock or cut the chain, they are

• leverage attack
• hammer attack
• bolt cutter attack

Then include the same thin 4mm or 6mm diameter mild steel chain most people buy when they need a chain and padlock to secure an item.

why do they

mild steel chain is cheap to buy
but cheap means very low security

4mm or 6mm diameter mild steel chain is easy and quick to cut with a cheap 12 inch bolt cutter anyone can buy at Bunnings, Mitre 10 or their local hardware shop for about five dollars.

bolt cutter proof chain
also known as

when designing the steel shroud

Our initial target market was industrial properties to replace mild steel chain and the padlock used to secure a single gate to a post or double gates together.

plus

• put the bolt cutter proof chain through the rim of a 4wd camper trailer wheel to protect it being stolen
• through the front or back wheel of a motorcycle - motorbike to protect it being stolen

after testing

The perfect length of high tensile chain required to achieve the above is 500mm.

not long after our first sale in March 2004

We were asked countless times

can longer lengths of
10mm diameter high tensile chain be purchased

yes

we can supply any length of
10mm diameter bolt cutter proof chain
up to 5m long

The length of 10mm diameter bolt cutter proof chain in the picture above is 1.500m.

why should you purchase Padlock Protection

stop
thieves breaking your padlock
or cutting your chain

As we said above, a thief can break a padlock or cut a link in mild steel chain in a few seconds with either

• leverage attack
• hammer attack
• bolt cutter attack

say goodbye
to your valuable possession

Walk around any industrial area and you will see most factory gates are secured with 4mm or 6mm diameter mild steel chain and a cheap padlock and business owners wonder why their property is broken into so easily.

warranty

Before we sold the first Padlock Protection in March 2004 we, the manufacturer, spent a lot of time thinking about the question

how long should we
guarantee each Padlock Protection

why

Based on our research padlocks and similar products are imported, they have no manufacturer warranty.

If you buy an imported padlock and similar product the only warranty you get is the six month minimum Australian government mandatory warranty for all products imported into Australia unless otherwise stated.

back to our question

We knew for a fact each Padlock Protection will last a life time eg. 25, 50 or 75 years no doubt longer due to the superior material used to manufacture them and no moving parts but we also knew we had to be realistic.

We believe a 10 year guarantee gives purchasers 100% confidence they are buying a high quality security product from a 100% Australian owned business.

we are proud to say

since our first sale in March 2004

until today August 14, 2022

we have never had a

warranty claim

we are confident we never will

not many companies can state the above fact

buy today
August 14, 2022

the Australian manufacturer
will guarantee it until

August 14, 2032
