Combination Lock 145/30 C

Practical for on the road: Our combination lock 145 is a compact padlock with numerical code and special coating for extra robust protection.

  • Solid aluminum lock body - low weight
  • Shackle made from steel
  • Individually resettable digit code

NINE BRIGHT COLORS

Our combination lock 145 is available in nine bright colors with a special coating for extra robust protection.

Padlock ABUS 145 consists of a solid aluminum lock body and a steel shackle. It is suitable for locking bags, suitcases, caskets, lockers, and more. We recommend the 145/20 to 145/30 variants if you want to secure low-value objects or items at a low risk of theft. The large 145/40 variant works very well for securing objects of medium value or items at a moderate risk of theft. The numerical code can be individually set with three or four number wheels, depending on the size of the lock. Due to their low weight, our combination locks 145 are easy to use at any time, even on the road.

Technology:

  • Solid aluminum lock body with anodized coating – corrosion resistant
  • Spring loaded shackle for a better setting of the opening code
  • 145/20 and 145/30: Individually resettable 3-digit code
  • 145/40: Individually resettable 4-digit code
  • Handy operation without key, low weight
  • High value of recognition by intensive colors

Operation and use:

  • 145/20 and 145/30: To secure valuables/goods of lesser value or at a low risk of theft
  • 145/40: To secure valuables/goods of medium value or at an average risk of theft
  • E.g. to secure luggage, lockers in schools and sports centres, cash boxes, jewel cases, cupboards, tool boxes, switchboards, etc.

ABUS 145/30 C BLACK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I set my own combination on the ABUS 145/30, or is the code fixed?
You set it yourself. The 145/30 carries an individually resettable 3-digit code, so a property manager or facilities crew can assign a code per locker, change it at turnover, and reset it again without ordering a new lock. The larger 145/40 in the same family uses a resettable 4-digit code if you want more combinations.
2) Should I use a combination padlock or a keyed padlock for lockers in my building?
Combination if you are handing lockers to people who rotate: no keys to cut, no keys to lose, no key return at move-out, and the 145/30 code resets in place between users. Keyed if the lock has to live in your master key system or your maintenance staff needs override access, because a combination lock gives you no bypass. For keyed control, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock that accepts your core program, and the Medeco 5260 in the 52 Series uses M3 key technology. Combination locks like the 145/30 do not tie into any of that.
3) Does the ABUS 145/30 have a key override or a master key option for management access?
No. The 145/30 opens on its 3-digit combination only, with no keyway and no key cylinder, so there is no bypass if a tenant or employee forgets the code. If your facility needs staff override on every opening, a keyed padlock is the answer: the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. Plan the 145/30 for openings where cutting the lock off is an acceptable last resort.
4) What is a keyed alternative to the ABUS 145/30 C combination padlock for a locker bank that needs to be opened by staff?
The ABUS 145/30 C opens on an individually resettable 3-digit code with no key at all, so anyone with the code can open it. Where a facility wants a keyed lock instead, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in the 758 Series with a US4 satin brass finish, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter. Both put access under a cylinder and key rather than a code, which is what a property manager standardizing a key system usually wants.
5) Which padlock should be used instead of the ABUS 145/30 C on an exterior gate or yard application?
The ABUS 145/30 C has a solid aluminum body with an anodized coating and is weather resistant, but it is built for lockers, tool boxes, cash boxes and luggage. For an outdoor opening, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, and the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter. Both are specified for outdoor exposure and use a cylinder rather than a dial code.
6) Can the ABUS 145/30 C be keyed into an existing master key system?
No. The 145/30 C is opened by a 3-digit resettable number code, so there is no cylinder to key and it cannot join a master key system. Padlocks that can be brought into a keying program include the Sargent 60-858-2, a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, and the Medeco 5260, a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology in satin chrome. A removable core model such as the 60-858-2 lets a facility swap cores as the key system changes.
7) Is the ABUS 145/30 C a substitute for a high-security padlock on a switchgear or utility enclosure?
It is not the same class of product. The ABUS 145/30 C is a compact aluminum-body code lock ABUS recommends for objects of lesser value or at a low risk of theft. Where the enclosure calls for a high-security cylinder, the Sargent 82-856 is a non-key retaining padlock in the KESO Series with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and stainless steel shackle, and the Medeco 5260 uses M3 key technology in a 52 Series brass body. Those are cylinder-based locks in a heavier case, so confirm the hasp will take the larger body.
8) What colors does the ABUS 145/30 combination padlock come in, and does the color do anything useful?
Six colors: black, blue, green, orange, red, and yellow. On a bank of lockers or a set of tool boxes the color is the point, not decoration. ABUS builds the 145 for high recognition value through intensive colors, so a school, gym, or maintenance shop can code by department, floor, or crew and spot the wrong lock on the wrong door from across the room. The color comes from an anodized coating on the aluminum body, so it is part of the finish rather than paint that chips off.
9) Will an ABUS 145/30 hold up outdoors on a fence or an exterior cabinet?
The 145/30 is listed weather resistant, and the aluminum body carries an anodized coating that ABUS calls corrosion resistant. That covers an unheated warehouse, a covered exterior cabinet, or a bike rack. For full outdoor exposure on a service gate or utility enclosure where you also want real attack resistance, step up to a stainless or brass body lock: the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, and the Sargent 858 uses a stainless steel shackle.
10) Is the ABUS 145/30 too small for my application, and what is the difference between the 145/20, 145/30 and 145/40?
Size and code length are what separate them. The 145/30 has a 1-15/64 inch body and a 3-digit code, same code length as the 145/20. The 145/40 is the large one and uses a 4-digit code. ABUS positions the 145/20 and 145/30 for low-value items at low theft risk and the 145/40 for items of medium value at moderate risk. So if you are locking gym lockers or a tool box, the 145/30 is the size; if you want more combinations and a bigger body for a storage cupboard, go to the 145/40.
11) What is the difference between key retaining and non-key retaining padlocks, and where does the ABUS 145/30 C fall?
Key retaining means the key cannot be withdrawn while the lock is open, which keeps the key with the lock during use; the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock, while the Sargent 858 and the Sargent 82-856 are non-key retaining, as is the Medeco 54515G. The ABUS 145/30 C sits outside that distinction entirely because it opens on a resettable 3-digit code with no key to retain or lose, which is why it is used on school and sports centre lockers where users carry no hardware.
12) Which padlock supports audited or credential-based access rather than a shared code like the ABUS 145/30 C?
The ABUS 145/30 C uses a single 3-digit code that everyone with access must share and that a manager resets by hand. For access driven by a credential instead, the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock in the System Series, supplied with a cylinder and non-key retaining. That is the option to look at when a security integrator needs electronic control at the padlock rather than a number wheel.
13) Is the ABUS 145 combination lock heavy enough to weigh down a locker door or a bag zipper?
No. The 145 uses a solid aluminum body specifically for low weight, which is why it works on luggage, bags, and cases where a brass or stainless lock would drag. Compare that to the padlocks built around brass and stainless bodies, like the Sargent 82-856 with its 2 x 2 inch brass case, which are considerably more substantial parts. For a fleet of lockers or a set of travel cases, the aluminum body is the reason to pick the 145.
14) Why does my combination padlock not pop open cleanly when I dial the code?
On the ABUS 145 the shackle is spring loaded, which is there to give a clean release the moment the wheels line up on the opening code. If it is not releasing, the wheels are off by a position rather than the mechanism being at fault. Line each digit squarely with the index mark and pull straight, not at an angle. Aluminum body, so do not force it with a pry.
15) Do the six colors of the ABUS 145/30 C serve the same purpose as the finishes on brass commercial padlocks?
No, they answer different needs. The ABUS 145/30 C comes in black, blue, green, orange, red and yellow anodized coatings that ABUS describes as giving a high value of recognition, so a crew can tell departments or zones apart at a glance. The Sargent 758 and Sargent 858 are supplied in a US4 satin brass finish and the Medeco 5260 in satin chrome, which are architectural finishes meant to match other hardware rather than to color-code a fleet of locks.
