American Lock AME-A1165UN BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does "uncombinated" mean on the American Lock A1165UN padlock?
Uncombinated means the A1165UN ships with no key bitting set in the cylinder. A locksmith pins it to your own keyway and bitting, so you can bring it onto an existing American Lock key system instead of adding another standalone key. If you want the lock ready to use out of the box, order the keyed different A1165 (A1165KD) or the keyed alike A1165KA instead. A zero-bitted option, the A1165KZ, is also part of the same family.
2) Will a 1/4 inch shackle padlock fit my lockout hasp and breaker devices?
The A1165UN uses a 1/4 inch diameter shackle with a 1 inch clearance under the crossbar and a 25/32 inch shackle width. That 1/4 inch diameter is the size most lockout hasps, breaker lockouts and valve lockout devices are cut for. Measure your hasp eye: anything sized for 1/4 inch will take it, and the 1 inch clearance is what limits how thick a stack of hasp jaws or a hasp plus staple you can get the shackle around.
3) How do I color-code padlocks by department or by worker for a lockout program?
The A1165 body comes in nine colors: black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow. Assign a color per trade, shift, or authorized employee and keep the model number the same across the whole program, so every lock takes the same hasp and the same 1/4 inch shackle opening regardless of who it belongs to.
4) What is the difference between the A1165, A1166 and A1167 aluminum padlocks?
All three are 1-1/2 inch (38mm) wide solid aluminum rekeyable padlocks with a boron shackle; the number identifies the shackle height. The A1165 is the 1 inch clearance version. The A1166 and A1167 are the longer-shackle members of the same family, so if 1 inch of clearance will not reach around your hasp or cable, step up rather than changing lock line. Each of the three is sold in the same keying choices, including uncombinated, keyed alike, keyed different and master keyed.
5) I need the padlocks master keyed across the site. Can I still order the A1165?
Yes, but not as the UN. The uncombinated A1165UN comes unpinned for your own locksmith to combinate, which is one way to fold it into an existing master system. If you would rather the factory do it, the same lock is offered as the A1165MK, keyed different under a master key, and the A1165KAMK, keyed alike under a master key. The 6-pin cylinder with over 40,000 key changes is what carries the system.
6) What is the closest aluminum safety padlock to the American Lock A1165UN if I need a 1/4 inch shackle in the same 1-1/2 inch body size?
The A1165UN is a 1-1/2 inch wide solid aluminum body with a 1/4 inch diameter shackle. The ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock matches both of those key numbers - a 1-1/2 inch body width and a 1/4 inch shackle diameter - and uses a 6-pin cylinder. The difference is construction: the A1165UN body is solid aluminum with an anodized finish, while the 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock in the ABUS 74 Series. If your lockout program is written around a 1-1/2 inch body on a 1/4 inch shackle, the 74/40 fits the same hasp openings.
7) I need a smaller lockout padlock than the American Lock A1165UN for a tight hasp - what else is there?
The A1165UN body is 1-1/2 inches wide with a 1/4 inch shackle. If the hasp or the cluster of locks on a group lockout box will not take that footprint, the ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock is narrower on both counts - a 1-1/4 inch body width with a 3/16 inch shackle diameter, in the ABUS 72 Series. The thinner shackle also passes through smaller hasp eyes. Note that going down in shackle diameter changes what fits your existing hasps, so confirm the eye size before standardizing a facility on it.
8) Our facility standardizes on interchangeable core - is the American Lock A1165UN the right pick?
No. The A1165UN is a rekeyable padlock supplied uncombinated, meaning the cylinder ships without a keying and your locksmith pins it to your system. That is a pin-tumbler cylinder in an aluminum body, not a removable core. If your program is built on interchangeable cores so cores can be swapped in the field without pinning the lock, the Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock is the one to spec; it carries a 2 inch stainless steel shackle and sits in the Sargent 758/858 series. Choose the A1165UN when you want the aluminum lockout body and will pin cylinders yourself, and the 60-858-2 when core interchange across the site is the requirement.
9) How many keys come with an uncombinated A1165UN padlock?
Key count is something you specify. The options run from 0 keys per lock through 1, 3, and 4 keys per lock, with the standard being 2 keys per lock. Because the A1165UN is supplied uncombinated, the keys are cut when the cylinder is pinned, so pick the count that matches how many people need access before you order.
10) Can I use aluminum padlocks in a food processing plant?
Yes. The black anodized aluminum body on the A1165 series is called out as suitable for lockout in food processing facilities, and the anodized finish is corrosion resistant for washdown and other rough environments. The shackle is chrome plated boron alloy, which resists cutting as well as rust.
11) What cylinder is in the American Lock A1165 and how many key changes does it support?
It is a 6-pin APTC14 rekeyable cylinder with over 40,000 available key changes. That pin count and change capacity is why the A1165 works as the base lock for a facility-wide master keyed lockout or gate program: you can expand the system without running out of unique bittings. On the uncombinated A1165UN the cylinder arrives unpinned so your locksmith sets it into your existing system.
12) Can I get a padlock with a chain so it stays attached to the gate or equipment?
Yes. The A1165UN can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, or with no chain at all. The chain keeps the lock tethered to a gate frame or panel so it is not set down and lost during a lockout, which matters on outdoor and yard applications.
13) What should I use instead of the American Lock A1165UN on an exposed outdoor gate or yard application?
The A1165UN is a 1-1/2 inch anodized aluminum body with a 1/4 inch chrome plated boron alloy shackle and a 1 inch shackle clearance - built for lockout tagout and corrosion resistance, with a fairly short shackle. For a weather-exposed gate where you want a heavier metal body and more shackle, look at the Medeco 521 G8R weather-tight padlock, which has a solid stainless steel body and is supplied less pop-out cylinder, or the Sargent 858 non-key retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in a US4 satin brass finish. Both are substantially different products from a color-coded aluminum safety lock; pick by whether the job is personnel lockout or perimeter security.
14) Which padlocks look like alternatives to the American Lock A1165UN but will not work for lockout tagout color coding?
Several brass and stainless padlocks sit in the same size neighborhood but are not color-coded safety locks. The A1165UN comes in nine anodized lockbody colors - black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow - which is how lockout programs assign locks to trades or individuals. The Sargent 758 key retaining padlock is a US4 satin brass finish, the Medeco 5260 brass body padlock is satin chrome with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. All are single-finish security padlocks, not colored safety locks, and the Medeco and Schlage shackle diameters are larger than the A1165UN 1/4 inch shackle, so they will not drop into the same hasp eyes.
15) Is there a non-metallic-bodied alternative to the American Lock A1165UN for electrical lockout?
The A1165UN body is solid aluminum with an anodized finish. Where crews want a non-conductive outer surface on the lock body, the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock at 1 37/64 inch width with the same 1/4 inch shackle diameter, and the ABUS 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock at 1-1/2 inch body width, also on a 1/4 inch shackle. Both keep the 1/4 inch shackle so they pass through the same hasps as the A1165UN; the tradeoff is the covered body versus the anodized aluminum finish the A1165UN uses for food processing environments.
16) We are moving to electronic access control on our padlocks - what replaces the American Lock A1165UN?
The A1165UN is a mechanical rekeyable padlock with a 6-pin cylinder supplied uncombinated for your locksmith to pin. There is no electronic option in that aluminum lockout family. If you need audit trail and programmable key credentials instead of mechanical pinning, the Medeco 54515G XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock is the crossover product; it is non-key retaining with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and ships with a cylinder. Expect a different hasp fit, since 5/16 inch is a heavier shackle than the 1/4 inch on the A1165UN.
17) How many padlocks come in a box when buying A1165 locks for a facility?
They pack 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton. For a plant standardizing a lockout program, that lets you order in shelf packs per department and still buy full cartons when you are stocking the crib.
18) Does the American Lock A1165UN come key retaining, and what do I order if I need that behavior?
The A1165UN is ordered uncombinated with a choice of key counts from zero up to four keys per lock, so retention is set by how the cylinder is built for your system rather than being a fixed catalog option. If key retention is a hard requirement on the purchase order, the Sargent 758 is specified as a key retaining standard padlock in US4 satin brass, while the Sargent 858 and the Sargent 82-856 with its 2 inch by 2 inch brass case are specified non-key retaining with stainless steel shackles. Those are brass-bodied security padlocks rather than aluminum safety locks, so they suit gates and cabinets more than color-coded personnel lockout.
