What is the Best Combination Padlock for a Gym Locker?
Many gyms require you to bring your own padlock to secure your locker. A combination padlock is ideal because it removes the need to keep track of a key while you are working out, swimming, or using the sauna.
The Shield 155 series combination padlock is a reliable option that performs well under regular daily use. Your gym may recommend either a 30mm or 40mm padlock — these measurements refer to the body width, which influences the shackle thickness. The shackle must fit through the locker hasp comfortably, so always check the hole size on your locker fittings.
Choosing the Right Size
If your gym suggests a 30mm padlock, the Shield 155/30b is a great choice. It has three combination dials that you can set to your own memorable code. For those who prefer a slightly larger lock with an extra digit for added combination variation, the Shield 155/40b offers four dials. Just confirm the shackle will fit your locker’s fittings before purchase.
