ABUS 41/50-KD – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I get ABUS 41/50 padlocks all on one key for a property with multiple gates?
Yes. The 41/50 is orderable keyed alike, so one key opens every lock in the group, which is what most property managers want for gates, meters, and storage across a site. It also comes keyed different if each opening needs its own key, and master keyed if you want individual keys per tenant or trade with one master for staff. Pick the keying when you order, since it is set at the factory.
2) Is a laminated steel padlock like the ABUS 41/50 good enough for outdoor use?
Outdoors is what the 41/50 is built around. Each laminate carries an ETERNA coating and the plates are individually treated for corrosion protection, so it holds up better than a plain laminated lock on a fence line or a yard gate. The shackle is hardened and double bolted, meaning both legs latch into the body rather than one leg pivoting free when the lock is cut or pried. ABUS rates the 41/50 for goods of medium value or average theft risk, so for a high-value stock cage or a container you want a heavier body.
3) Can I get an ABUS 41/50 keyed into my building's existing Schlage or Sargent master key system?
No. The 41/50 uses ABUS's own pin tumbler cylinder and its master keyed option runs on an ABUS system, not on another manufacturer's keyway. To bring padlocks onto a system you already run, you need a padlock built for that keyway: Sargent offers the 758 key retaining and 858 non-key retaining padlocks, the 60-858-2 takes a removable core with a 2 inch stainless shackle, and Schlage's KS23D/KS23F brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle covers the 20 Series side. Order the 41/50 when the padlocks stand on their own key system.
4) What is the difference between the ABUS 41/50 padlock and the Sargent 858?
The ABUS 41/50 is a laminated steel padlock with a 23/64 inch shackle diameter and a 2-3/32 inch body width, and it is self-locking - pushing the shackle down locks it without the key. The Sargent 858 is a non-key-retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in a US4 satin brass finish. Non-key-retaining means the key can be withdrawn while the lock is open, which suits a padlock a user carries away with the key; the 41/50's self-locking action suits a lock that gets snapped shut on a gate or hasp bare-handed.
5) I need a padlock that accepts our existing interchangeable core - can I use the ABUS 41/50?
The 41/50 uses a precision pin tumbler cylinder built into the laminated steel body, and it is ordered keyed alike, keyed different, or master keyed. For an opening that has to take a removable core out of an existing key system, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle in the 758/858 series. Use the 60-858-2 where core interchange is the requirement, and the 41/50 where the padlock is keyed at the point of order.
6) What padlock should I use outdoors instead of the ABUS 41/50 laminated body?
The ABUS 41/50 gets its outdoor protection from an ETERNA coating applied to each individual laminate and a hardened, double-bolted shackle. Where a one-piece corrosion-resistant body is preferred, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less the pop-out cylinder. The Medeco 5260 in the 52 Series uses a brass body with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter in satin chrome, a heavier shackle than the 41/50's 23/64 inch.
7) Is the Schlage KS23D a direct swap for an ABUS 41/50?
They are not the same padlock. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle in the 20 Series; the ABUS 41/50 has a 23/64 inch shackle, a 2-3/32 inch body width, 29/32 inch horizontal shackle clearance and 63/64 inch vertical shackle clearance. The shackle diameters differ, so check the hasp eye and the shackle opening before treating one as a swap for the other.
8) How wide is the ABUS 41/50 padlock body?
Body width on the 41/50 is 2-3/32 inches. That matters on recessed hasps and on gate boxes where the lock has to sit inside a shroud or between two posts, and it is the number to check against a hasp with a protective cover before you order a case of them.
9) Do I need the key to lock an ABUS 41/50, or does it snap shut?
It snaps shut. The 41/50 is self-locking, so pushing the shackle down secures it without a key in the cylinder. For crews closing out gates or job boxes at the end of the day that means nobody has to carry the key just to lock up, only to open. The cylinder is a precision pin tumbler.
10) What is the difference between a laminated padlock and a solid body padlock like the Medeco 521?
A laminated lock is built from stacked steel plates riveted together, which is what the ABUS 41/50 is; on the 41/50 the rivets are concentrated in the outer laminates so the heads cannot be easily chipped off. A solid body lock is machined from one piece, like the Medeco G8R 521 weather-tight padlock with its solid stainless steel body, or the Medeco 5260 with a brass body. Solid bodies are the usual call for marine, wash-down, and high-attack locations. Laminated is the workhorse choice for gates, sheds, and general site security.
11) I need a padlock that can be opened and audited electronically, will the ABUS 41/50 do that?
No, the 41/50 is a mechanical key padlock with a pin tumbler cylinder, so there is no access record and no way to revoke a key remotely. For an opening where you need electronic credentials outdoors, the Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle, non-key retaining, supplied with cylinder. Use the 41/50 where a mechanical key is the right answer and cost per opening matters.
12) Will a 23/64 inch shackle padlock swap straight in for a 5/16 inch one?
Usually yes, and it is a slightly tighter fit. The ABUS 41/50 shackle is 23/64 inch, which is a hair thicker than the 5/16 inch shackle on the Schlage KS23D/KS23F and the Medeco 54515G, so a hasp that took either of those may or may not clear the 41/50. Check the staple opening rather than assuming, and remember the 41/50 gives you 29/32 inch horizontal and 63/64 inch vertical clearance inside the shackle for whatever it has to pass through.
13) Which padlock keeps the key captive while the lock is open?
The Sargent 758 is a key-retaining padlock, so the key cannot be removed until the shackle is locked again - the usual choice where keys walk off. The Sargent 858 and the Sargent 82-856, which has a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and a stainless steel shackle, are both non-key-retaining. The ABUS 41/50 is self-locking, closing on shackle pressure alone without the key in the cylinder.
14) Which of these padlocks can be brought onto one master key system across a property?
The ABUS 41/50 is offered master keyed as well as keyed alike and keyed different, so a set of them can be built to one master for a commercial property. On the peer side, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock in the 758/858 series, which brings padlocks onto the same core system as the doors, and the Sargent 82-856 sits in the KESO series. The choice is between keying the padlock at order, as with the 41/50, and coring it in the field.
15) Is the ABUS 41/50 a commercial grade padlock or a consumer one?
Commercial. The 41/50 is a German made laminated steel padlock catalogued for commercial use, and it is ordered in keyed alike, keyed different, and master keyed sets the way a facility buys them rather than one at a time. ABUS positions it for medium value goods and average theft risk, which in practice covers gates, storage sheds, tool cribs, utility enclosures, and job site boxes.
16) Does a padlock ordered less cylinder work in place of the ABUS 41/50?
Only if you are supplying the cylinder. The Medeco 521 G8R weather-tight padlock, with its solid stainless steel body, ships less the pop-out cylinder, so it needs a cylinder to be a working lock. The ABUS 41/50 comes with its key and its precision pin tumbler cylinder in the laminated steel body, so it is complete as ordered in keyed alike, keyed different or master keyed.
