American Lock AME-A1207KA BLK 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does keyed alike mean on the American Lock A1207KA, and can I get multiple locks on one key?
Keyed alike is the point of the A1207KA: every lock ordered on the same key code opens with the same key, so one key runs a whole set of storage units, gates, or tool cribs. You give the key code when you order (there's a key code field on the order), and locks built to that code match locks you already own on it. If you want each lock on its own key instead, the same 1-3/4 inch aluminum padlock is sold as the A1207 keyed different, and there's an A1207KAMK version that is keyed alike but also opens under a master key.
2) Will the A1207KA padlock fit through my hasp? What is the shackle clearance?
The shackle is 5/16 inch in diameter with a 3/4 inch clearance between the legs and a 3 inch shackle length, so it needs a hasp staple or chain link with an opening wider than 3/4 inch and a hole that passes 5/16 inch stock. The 3 inch shackle gives real reach for gate chains and thick hasps. If your hasp slot is narrower than 3/4 inch, this body won't seat, and you want a smaller padlock such as the ABUS 72/30 with its 3/16 inch shackle diameter.
3) Can the A1207KA aluminum padlock be rekeyed by our locksmith, or is it throwaway?
It's rekeyable. The A1207KA uses a 5-pin APTC12 cylinder that a locksmith can repin, so when a tenant moves out or a key walks off, you repin rather than replace the lock. American Lock also offers the same body zero-bitted as the A1207KZ and uncombinated as the A1207UN if your shop wants to key them in-house from scratch.
4) Is an aluminum padlock strong enough for an outdoor gate, or do I need steel?
The body is solid aluminum with a black anodized finish, which is the reason to pick it outdoors: aluminum doesn't rust the way a plated steel body does in weather or washdown. The cut resistance comes from the shackle, not the body, and that shackle is hardened boron alloy steel at 5/16 inch diameter, with a dual ball bearing locking mechanism that resists pulling and prying. American Lock lists it for harsh outdoor conditions, manufacturing environments, self-storage and lockers, and tool cribs. For a fully stainless body instead, the Medeco 521 G8R weather-tight padlock is a solid stainless steel option.
5) We use interchangeable cores across the building. Will this American Lock padlock take our core?
No. The A1207KA is built around its own 5-pin APTC12 rekeyable cylinder, so it rekeys on that cylinder rather than accepting a removable core from your existing system. If you standardize on IC cores, look at a removable core padlock instead, such as the Sargent 60-858-2 with its 2 inch stainless steel shackle.
6) Is this padlock suitable for lockout tagout on electrical equipment?
No, the A1207KA is not a safety lockout lock. It is a commercial security padlock with a solid aluminum body and a hardened boron shackle, and a conductive metal body is the wrong thing on energized equipment. For LOTO use a purpose-built safety padlock: the ABUS 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1-1/2 inch body, and the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock with a 1/4 inch shackle. Keyed alike sets like the A1207KA are also the opposite of what LOTO requires, where each worker holds a unique key.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the American Lock A1207KA if I need a stainless steel body instead of aluminum?
The A1207KA has a solid aluminum body 1-3/4 inches wide with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle. For a stainless steel body in a padlock, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder. The Medeco 521 G8R is a G8R series lock, so it is cylinder-supplied separately rather than arriving with a rekeyable cylinder installed, and it does not carry the A1207KA's aluminum body construction or its 1-3/4 inch body width.
8) Which padlock has the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter as the American Lock A1207KA?
Two comparable padlocks share the A1207KA's 5/16 inch shackle diameter. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle in the 20 Series, and the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter supplied with cylinder. If the hasp opening was sized around a 5/16 inch shackle, all three pass through the same hole; the difference is body material and keying method, since the A1207KA uses a solid aluminum body with a rekeyable mechanical cylinder while the 54515G is an electronic lock.
9) Can I use an American Lock A1207KA where the spec calls for an interchangeable core padlock?
No. The A1207KA uses a rekeyable 5-pin APTC12 cylinder, which is rekeyed by repinning rather than by swapping a core. If the specification calls for removable core so the facility's own locksmith can pull and change cores, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle in the 758/858 series. The A1207KA remains the choice where a rekeyable cylinder in a solid aluminum body is what the opening needs.
10) The A1207KA is keyed alike and the key stays out when unlocked - what if I need a key retaining padlock instead?
The A1207KA is a keyed alike rekeyable padlock supplied by default with 2 keys per lock. Where the requirement is that the key cannot be withdrawn while the lock is open - common on lockout and accountability programs - the Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish. If non-key-retaining is what you want, the Sargent 858 is the non-key-retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in US4 satin brass, and the Sargent 82-856 is non-key retaining with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and stainless steel shackle.
11) Can I color code padlocks by department or by crew?
Nine lockbody colors are offered on the A1207KA: black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red, and yellow. That is how facilities and plant crews split locks by trade, by building, or by shift while every lock still runs on the same key code. The color is the anodized aluminum body itself, not a tag or sleeve, so it doesn't peel off in service.
12) How many keys come with each American Lock A1207KA padlock, and can I order extras or none?
Standard is 2 keys per lock. You can also order 1 key per lock, 3, 4, or 0 keys per lock. Zero keys is what large keyed alike orders use when the site already holds the keys for that code and doesn't want dozens of spares floating around; 3 or 4 keys per lock suits crews where several people need access to the same lock.
13) Can I get the padlock attached to a chain so it stays with the gate?
Yes. The A1207KA can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, which tethers the lock to the hasp or gate so it isn't set down and lost. Ordered without the chain option, you get the padlock alone.
14) What is the difference between the American Lock A1205, A1206, and A1207 padlocks?
All three are the same 1-3/4 inch (44mm) wide solid aluminum rekeyable padlock with a boron alloy shackle; the number tells you the shackle length. The A1207 carries the 3 inch shackle, which is the long one for chains, thick hasps, and gate work. Each of the three is sold in the same keying variations: keyed different, keyed alike, zero-bitted, uncombinated, and master keyed.
15) Should I buy an aluminum padlock or a brass body one for our facility?
Aluminum is the lighter, color-codeable choice and the A1207KA's anodized body handles weather and plant environments without corroding. Brass bodies are the traditional institutional pick where a shop already stocks brass finishes; from other brands, the Sargent 758 is a key retaining padlock in US4 satin brass, the Sargent 858 the non-key-retaining version, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter as the A1207KA. Key retaining matters if you need the key trapped in the lock while it is open so nobody walks away with the lock left off.
16) Will a 1-3/4 inch wide padlock body clear a recessed hasp or a shrouded staple?
The body measures 1-3/4 inch (44mm) across, which is a full-size commercial padlock, so it needs an open hasp or a shackle guard sized for a 44mm body. In a tight recess or a narrow puck-lock pocket it will not seat. Smaller bodies from other brands include the ABUS 72/30 at 1-1/4 inch and the ABUS T84MB/30 at 1-17/64 inch.
17) I need an aluminum body padlock smaller than 1-3/4 inches wide - what else is there?
The A1207KA body is 1-3/4 inches wide in solid aluminum. For a narrower aluminum body, the ABUS 72/30 is an anodized aluminum safety padlock with a 1-1/4 inch body width and a 3/16 inch shackle diameter, and the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock at 1 37/64 inch width with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter. Both take a thinner shackle than the A1207KA's 5/16 inch, so confirm the hasp before swapping down.
18) Is the ABUS 74/40 safety padlock a substitute for the American Lock A1207KA on an electrical lockout?
They are built for different jobs. The ABUS 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and a 1-1/2 inch body width - the insulation is the point on an electrical lockout. The A1207KA is a solid aluminum body padlock 1-3/4 inches wide with a hardened boron alloy steel shackle for cut resistance and a 5-pin APTC12 rekeyable cylinder, aimed at self-storage, tool cribs, manufacturing environments and harsh outdoor conditions. Color-coding a crew is possible with either, since the A1207KA body comes in black, blue, brown, clear, green, orange, purple, red and yellow.
19) For a marine or coastal gate, does the A1207KA or the ABUS T84MB Nautic make more sense?
The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is a black sleeve padlock with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and a 1 17/64 inch body width, sold in a 3-pack, and is built around salt-air use. The A1207KA answers the same exposure differently: a solid aluminum body with a durable black anodized finish for harsh environments, at a 1-3/4 inch body width with a 5/16 inch, 3 inch tall boron alloy shackle. The gap between a 13/64 inch and a 5/16 inch shackle is the deciding detail if the hasp is sized for a heavier shackle.
20) What takes a heavier shackle than the American Lock A1207KA?
The A1207KA carries a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, 3 inches tall, in hardened boron alloy steel. For a thicker shackle, the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology in satin chrome. A 7/16 inch shackle needs a hasp opening sized for it, so verify the hasp before specifying the heavier lock in place of the A1207KA.
21) I want one key to open every padlock on the site - which of these does that without a keying system?
The A1207KA is the keyed alike version of the American Lock 1-3/4 inch solid aluminum rekeyable padlock, so a quantity ordered against one key code all open on the same key, and the rekeyable APTC12 cylinder lets a locksmith change that code later. The Medeco 54515G takes a different route to the same site-wide control: it is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock supplied with cylinder, where access is managed electronically rather than by cutting every lock to a shared bitting.
22) How are American Lock A1207KA padlocks packed for a bulk order?
They pack 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton, which is the count to work from when you're ordering enough locks to cover a storage facility or a full set of lockers.
23) Does a brass body padlock like the Schlage KS23D work in the same outdoor spot as the A1207KA?
Both will hang on the same hasp - the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, matching the A1207KA's 5/16 inch shackle diameter. The construction differs: the KS23D/KS23F uses a brass body in the 20 Series, while the A1207KA uses a solid aluminum body with a black anodized finish and a boron alloy steel shackle, and is offered in nine body colors for crew or building color-coding. For a commercial exterior opening where you also want a rekeyable 5-pin cylinder and color identification, the A1207KA covers both.
