American Lock AME-A1107KA BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does keyed alike mean on the American Lock A1107KA, and how do I order them so one key opens every lock?
Keyed alike means every lock in the order shares one key change, so a single key opens all of them. On the A1107KA that is set by the key code you supply at order time, so give the same code on every order you want to match, whether that is the first batch or a refill two years later. Order a different code and you get a set that only matches within itself. Each lock ships with 2 keys as standard, and you can specify 0, 1, 3, or 4 keys per lock instead if you are running a large lockout program and do not want a pile of spare keys.
2) Will a 1/4 inch shackle American Lock aluminum padlock fit through my lockout hasp and breaker cleat?
The shackle is 1/4 inch (6mm) in diameter with 1 inch (25mm) of vertical clearance and 25/32 inch between the legs, on an overall 3 inch shackle length. That 1/4 inch diameter is the size most standard lockout hasps and breaker lockout devices are drilled for, and the 25/32 inch inside width is what decides whether it straddles a cleat or hasp eye. Measure the hole and the material thickness on your device against those three numbers before you commit to a fleet quantity.
3) Can I get American Lock A1107KA safety padlocks in different colors for each trade, and still have them keyed alike?
The aluminum body comes in nine anodized colors: black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red, and yellow. That is how most lockout programs separate electrical from mechanical from contractors, one color per craft or per shift. Color and keying are independent choices, so you can run a yellow set and a red set on the same key code, or give each color its own code so a millwright key cannot pull an electrician's lock.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the American Lock A1107KA aluminum safety padlock from another brand?
The ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock is the nearest match on the two dimensions that matter for a lockout program: it has a 1-1/2 inch body width and a 1/4 inch shackle diameter, the same body width and shackle diameter as the A1107KA. The differences are in construction and cylinder. The A1107KA uses a solid aluminum body with a black anodized finish and a boron alloy shackle, and its cylinder is a 5-pin rekeyable tumbler. The ABUS 74/40 is built as an insulated padlock on a 6-pin cylinder. If your lockout standard is written around a 1-1/2 inch aluminum body on a 1/4 inch shackle, the 74/40 is the substitution to look at first.
5) I need a smaller lockout padlock than the American Lock A1107KA for tight electrical panels. What are my options?
Two aluminum-body padlocks come in narrower than the A1107KA, which is 1-1/2 inches wide on a 1/4 inch shackle. The ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock has a 1-1/4 inch body width and a 3/16 inch shackle diameter, so both the body and the shackle are slimmer and it will pass through a tighter hasp eye. The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is smaller again at a 1-17/64 inch body width on a 13/64 inch shackle diameter, built with a black sleeve over the body. Check the hasp or breaker cleat opening against the shackle diameter before you commit, because the thinner shackle changes what the lock will fit through as much as the body width does.
6) My facility standardizes on interchangeable core. Is the American Lock A1107KA the right padlock?
No. The A1107KA is a 5-pin rekeyable tumbler cylinder, which is rekeyed by repinning rather than by pulling a core. For a small format or removable core program, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, so it drops into the same core keying system as the rest of a Sargent-cored facility. The Medeco 521 G8R is another route: a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body supplied less pop-out cylinder, so you install your own cylinder. Both change the body material away from the A1107KA's aluminum, which matters if the anodized aluminum was chosen for food processing or corrosion resistance.
7) Can I use a Sargent 758 or 858 padlock in place of the American Lock A1107KA for lockout tagout?
They are different tools for different jobs even though both are padlocks. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, and the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining version with a stainless steel shackle in the same US4 satin brass. Both are brass-finished security padlocks. The A1107KA is built as a safety lockout padlock: solid aluminum body, anodized finish specified for lockout in food processing facilities, and it comes in nine lockbody colors including red, yellow, blue, green, orange, purple, brown, black and clear so each authorized worker gets a distinct color. If the requirement is a colored, worker-identifiable lockout device, the 758 and 858 do not fill it. If the requirement is a gate or storage padlock, they do.
8) Which padlock has a thicker shackle than the American Lock A1107KA if my hasp is being cut through?
The A1107KA runs a 1/4 inch diameter chrome plated boron alloy shackle, chosen for cut resistance at that diameter rather than for bulk. If you need more shackle cross section, the Medeco 5260 brass body padlock carries a 7/16 inch shackle diameter with M3 key technology in a satin chrome finish, the heaviest shackle among the comparable padlocks. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock and the Medeco 54515G both use a 5/16 inch diameter shackle. Note that going up in shackle diameter means the lock may no longer pass through the hasp eyes or lockout hasp jaws sized for the 1/4 inch A1107KA, so measure the opening before switching.
9) Is an aluminum safety padlock OK for washdown areas in a food plant?
Yes. The A1107 body is solid aluminum with an anodized finish that American Lock calls out for lockout use in food processing facilities, and the finish is corrosion resistant for rough environments. The shackle is chrome plated boron alloy, which is there for cut resistance as much as for the plating. For a fully insulated or plastic-jacketed body instead, the ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock and the ABUS 76/40 plastic-covered aluminum core lock are the other shapes we carry in the same size class.
10) What is the difference between the American Lock A1105, A1106 and A1107 aluminum padlocks?
All three share the 1-1/2 inch wide aluminum body and the 1/4 inch boron shackle. They differ in shackle height: the A1107 is the tallest of the three, with a 3 inch shackle and 1 inch of clearance under the crossbar. Pick by what you are locking through. A tall shackle clears thick hasps, stacked tags, and cable, and a shorter one gives less room for a cutter to get a bite. If the A1107 is more shackle than you need, the A1105 or A1106 in the same body is the shorter answer.
11) Can American Lock A1107KA padlocks be rekeyed later, or do I have to replace them when someone leaves?
They rekey. The cylinder is a 5-pin tumbler rekeyable design, so a locksmith or an in-house shop can re-pin the locks to a new code and keep the bodies in service. That matters on a lockout program where keys walk off, and it is the reason to buy rekeyable rather than a sealed lock you throw away. If you would rather swap a core in seconds without pinning, the Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock is the interchangeable core option we carry.
12) Do American Lock A1107 safety padlocks come with a chain to keep the lock attached to the panel?
A chain is an option you pick at order time, not a standard inclusion. The choice is a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, or none at all. The chain is what keeps a lock tethered to the device or the tag station so it does not end up in a toolbox. If you are not tethering, order it as NONE.
13) Should I use an aluminum safety padlock or a brass or stainless body padlock for outdoor gates and equipment?
Different jobs. The A1107 aluminum lock is built for lockout tagout: light body, nine colors for craft identification, and an anodized corrosion resistant finish. It is a safety device, not a gate lock. For exterior security where you want mass and a weather-sealed body, look at the Medeco 521 G8R weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, the Medeco 5260 brass body lock with a 7/16 inch shackle, or the Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. Those carry heavier shackles than the 1/4 inch on the aluminum lockout body.
14) I already run ABUS 72 Series aluminum safety padlocks. Can I add American Lock A1107KA locks to the same program?
Not on the same key. Keying does not cross brands, so an American Lock key code will not operate ABUS cylinders and the two sets stay separate no matter how they are ordered. They can coexist on the same hasps, though, if the hardware takes the shackle: the A1107 shackle is 1/4 inch diameter, while the ABUS 72/30 uses a 3/16 inch shackle on a 1-1/4 inch body, so the American lock is the thicker shackle of the two and needs the larger hole. If you want to keep one key across the fleet, standardize on one brand and run it keyed alike.
15) What should I use instead of the American Lock A1107KA outdoors on a gate or exposed enclosure?
The A1107KA carries a corrosion resistant anodized finish, but a few peers are built specifically around weather exposure. The Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder. The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included, which suits an audited access program where you want a record of who opened what. Both step up in shackle or body substance from the A1107KA's 1/4 inch shackle and aluminum body.
16) Is the ABUS 76/40 a substitute for the American Lock A1107KA in a food processing plant?
They share the 1/4 inch shackle diameter and sit within about a sixteenth of an inch of each other on body width, the ABUS 76/40 at 1-37/64 inches against the A1107KA at 1-1/2 inches, so they will hang on similar hasps. The construction differs where it counts for washdown areas. The 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock, so the exterior is a plastic jacket over the core. The A1107KA is a solid aluminum body whose black anodized finish is what makes it suitable for lockout in food processing facilities. If your sanitation standard is written against an anodized metal surface rather than a plastic cover, the two are not interchangeable.
17) I want a high security keyway on a lockout padlock instead of the American Lock A1107KA standard cylinder. What is available?
The A1107KA uses a 5-pin tumbler rekeyable cylinder, which is a conventional keyway you repin in house. For a restricted or patented key system, the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with M3 key technology and a 7/16 inch shackle, and the Sargent 82-856 is a KESO Series non-key-retaining padlock with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and stainless steel shackle. Both move you to a brass body rather than the A1107KA's aluminum, and neither is built as a color-coded lockout device, so they suit a keyed security application more than a personal lockout program.
18) Do any comparable padlocks come keyed alike across a fleet the way the American Lock A1107KA does?
Keyed alike is the defining trait of the A1107KA within the American Lock solid aluminum safety padlock family, which also runs A1107 keyed different, A1107UN uncombinated, A1107KZ zero-bitted, A1107MK keyed different master keyed and A1107KAMK keyed alike master keyed, plus the same six keying arrangements on the 1-1/2 inch A1105 and A1106 bodies. That gives you one family to keep a whole facility on a single key plan. Among the other brands, the keying route is different in kind: the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock, so a facility standardizes by putting its own cores in, and the Medeco 521 G8R ships less pop-out cylinder for the same reason. Those are core-based programs rather than a factory keyed alike order.
19) Which padlock should I pick if I need the key to stay captive while the lock is open?
Key retention splits the field. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in US4 satin brass, so the key cannot be withdrawn while the shackle is open, which is what many lockout procedures require so a lock is never left hanging unlocked. On the other side, the Sargent 858, the Sargent 82-856 KESO and the Medeco 54515G XT are all non-key retaining. The A1107KA supports the same intent a different way, through the shackle clearance and color coding: it has a 1 inch shackle clearance and nine lockbody colors so each worker's lock is identifiable on the hasp.
20) Is the Schlage KS23D/KS23F a drop-in replacement for the American Lock A1107KA?
It is not a like-for-like swap. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a 20 Series brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, so the shackle is thicker than the A1107KA's 1/4 inch and the body is brass rather than solid aluminum. That larger shackle diameter will not pass through hardware sized to the A1107KA's 1/4 inch shackle, and a brass body does not carry the anodized aluminum finish the A1107KA relies on for food processing lockout and corrosive environments. Treat the KS23D/KS23F as a keyed brass padlock for doors, gates and cabinets rather than as a lockout device.
21) None of the aluminum lockout padlocks fit my application. What has a longer shackle than the American Lock A1107KA?
The A1107KA has a 3 inch shackle length with 1 inch of clearance under the crossbar, which suits a standard lockout hasp. If you are locking around a thicker cleat, a chain link or a bundle of hasp jaws, the Sargent 60-858-2 and the Sargent 82-856 both use a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, and the 82-856 sits in a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case for the added body mass. There is also a second route on the A1107KA itself, which can be ordered with a #40 sash chain 9 inches long in zinc plate so the lock stays tethered to the equipment it guards.
22) How are American Lock A1107KA padlocks packed if I am buying for a whole facility?
They pack 6 per shelf pack and 24 to the master carton. Useful when you are issuing locks by department: a shelf pack covers a small crew, and a master carton covers a full color group for a plant. Keying is per order code, not per carton, so the pack size does not decide how the locks are keyed.
23) Is the American Lock A1107KA rated for commercial and industrial use or is it a consumer padlock?
Commercial. The A1107KA is a commercial-grade safety lockout padlock, sold into industrial LOTO programs rather than the hardware-store aisle, with a solid aluminum body 1-1/2 inches wide and a boron alloy shackle chosen for cut resistance. That is the same class of lock as the Sargent 758 and 858 series padlocks we carry on the security side.
