ABUS Padlocks

Generally speaking we regard ABUS as the leading padlock manufacturer. They don't have the best marketing, nor packaging, but they do manufacturer the best padlocks and to the highest standard. In fact they're one of very few who still manufacture a lot of their locks in Europe whilst the majority of other brands have moved their production to non owned Chinese factories.

The result of ABUS is a product that more reliable, rusts less and is significantly stronger. We've been to the ABUS factories on a few occasions and every time we're staggered by the engineering best practices.

Many ABUS models are engineered for outdoor use. The marine or rustfree series, for example, use stainless or specially treated materials to resist corrosion in wet or coastal conditions.

However, no metal is completely impervious to marine attack, using a marine-rated model or regular maintenance is still advisable in saltwater environments.
