Most site toolboxes have cut-aways for two padlocks. By using keyed alike padlocks you could have both padlocks that open with the same key. Where you have sites with multiple boxes we are able to offer different colour padlocks or the option of engraving for easy identification.

If your box fittings can take a 40mm padlock then you could use coloured padlocks like the Abus T84MB/40. Although normally used as safety padlocks the T84MB/40 are fully marine grade and suited to harsh environmental conditions. This makes it ideal for use where the site box is left outdoors for long periods of time. The self-locking mechanism on the padlock means it is highly secure against picking and the double bolted case helps against force attacks. Available in 6 colours and as key differ or keyed alike versions.

Where the boxes are left on an unmanned site you may wish to have a greater security level. If the fittings allow the space, then you could use a closed shackle padlock. This would give you greater protection against bolt cropper attacks. The Abus 90RK/50 is a closed shackle padlock, with reinforced walls and meets with the CEN 3 insurance rating. The stainless steel body and shackle make it ideal for use on sites subject to severe weather or environmental conditions.

These site boxes are often used bolted onto the rear of vehicles. In this instance you may not want the padlocks clattering against the box as the vehicle is in motion. A popular choice for securing equipment on the back of vehicles or on trailers is the Abus 70IB series and these would work very well on the site boxes too. The protective plastic sheath over the body and shackle gives this padlock great protection against harsh weather conditions. It also acts as a buffer against the padlock hitting against the metal site box and scratching the paintwork.
