My father used to say a padlock will only stop an honest man. With today's cordless angle grinders there's nothing to stop someone who's determined to steal something stored outside.

Couldnt agree more and thats why I got a cheap boat but I rather use a lock than a knot at the bow.

As a matter of interest, how do you plan to use the lock?
