American Lock AME-A1307KD BLU 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the American Lock A1307 padlock fit through my hasp? What are the shackle dimensions?
The A1307 uses a 3 inch tall shackle with a 3/8 inch diameter and 3/4 inch clearance between the legs. That 3/4 inch inside width is the number that decides hasp fit, and the 3/8 inch diameter means the staple opening has to pass a 3/8 inch rod. Body width is 2 inches, so allow that much room where the lock sits.
2) What is the difference between the American Lock A1305, A1306 and A1307 aluminum padlocks?
All three are the same 2 inch wide solid aluminum rekeyable body; the difference is shackle height. The A1307 carries a 3 inch tall shackle, which is the long-shackle option in that family when you need to reach around a thick hasp, a chain link, or a gate bracket. If you only need to pass a standard hasp staple, the shorter A1305 or A1306 gives less shackle exposed to bolt cutters.
3) Does the A1307KD come keyed different, and can I get it keyed alike across a site instead?
A1307 and A1307KD are the keyed different version: every lock gets its own key. American Lock builds the same 3 inch shackle aluminum body in A1307KA keyed alike, A1307MK master keyed, A1307KAMK keyed alike plus master keyed, A1307KZ zero-bitted and A1307UN uncombinated. For a property or facility running one master, order the MK or KAMK version rather than trying to rekey KD locks into a system.
4) I need a padlock that takes a removable core so it works with my existing key system. Is the A1307 the right lock?
No. The A1307 uses a conventional 5-pin APTC12 rekeyable cylinder, not an interchangeable core. For a small format removable core padlock, look at the Sargent 60-858-2, which is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle. If you just want the key control without IC, the A1307 in the zero-bitted A1307KZ or uncombinated A1307UN version lets your locksmith pin it to your bitting.
5) For a wet or coastal outdoor application, is there an alternative to the American Lock A1307 aluminum padlock?
The A1307 is a solid aluminum body lock with a black anodized finish intended for harsh outdoor conditions. If the site calls for a corrosion-focused body instead of aluminum, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body supplied less pop-out cylinder, and the ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic uses a black sleeve body with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and 1-17/64 inch body width. The Medeco 521 needs its cylinder specified separately, unlike the A1307.
6) What is the closest aluminum-body safety padlock to the American Lock A1307 if a smaller lock is needed?
The American Lock A1307 has a 2 inch wide aluminum body with a 3/8 inch diameter shackle and 3 inch shackle length. If the hasp or lockout point needs something narrower, the ABUS 72/30 is an anodized aluminum safety padlock with a 1-1/4 inch body width and 3/16 inch shackle diameter, and the ABUS 76/40 uses a plastic-covered aluminum core with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1-37/64 inch width. Both are lighter-shackle locks in a smaller body than the A1307.
7) If I need a padlock that takes the same interchangeable core as my building cylinders instead of the American Lock A1307, what should I order?
The A1307 uses a rekeyable 5-pin APTC12 cylinder in its own aluminum body. For an opening where the padlock has to key into an existing removable-core system, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel 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. Those are core-based platforms rather than a self-contained rekeyable aluminum lock.
8) Can the A1307 padlock be rekeyed by a locksmith?
Yes. The A1307 uses a 5-pin APTC12 rekeyable cylinder, so a locksmith can repin it in the shop rather than replacing the lock. The cylinder is pick resistant and offers tens of thousands of key changes, which is what lets a fleet of these be pulled into an existing keying scheme over time.
9) How many keys come with each American Lock A1307 padlock?
Key count is something you pick when ordering. The A1307 can be supplied with 0, 1, 2 (standard), 3 or 4 keys per lock. Order 0 keys per lock when your locksmith is cutting keys to an existing system; take the standard 2 if you want a spare in the office for each lock.
10) Can I get the A1307 padlock with a chain attached for self-storage or gate use?
Yes. Each A1307 can be ordered with no chain or with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches long, zinc plated. The chain version keeps the lock tethered to the hasp or roll-up door bracket so it does not get set down and lost between openings, which is the usual reason storage and yard operators specify it.
11) What body colors does the American Lock A1307 come in, and can I color-code by department?
The A1307 body is offered in blue, brown, red and yellow, and the base A1307 is black anodized aluminum. Color coding is the point for most buyers: assign a color per crew, per building, or per key system so a lock on the wrong door is visible from across the yard. The catalog part numbers follow the color, for example A1307BLU, A1307BRN, A1307RED and A1307YLW.
12) Will an aluminum padlock hold up outdoors on gates and fence yards?
That is the case the A1307 is built for. The body is solid aluminum with a black anodized finish for harsh outdoor and manufacturing environments, and the shackle is boron alloy steel for cut resistance. A dual ball bearing locking mechanism resists pulling and prying at the shackle heel. Aluminum will not rust the way a plated steel body does, which is why these end up on self-storage units, lockers and exterior gates.
13) What else could I use instead of the American Lock A1307 aluminum padlock?
Depends what you are optimizing for. For lockout/tagout on electrical and machine work, the ABUS 72/30 is an anodized aluminum safety padlock with a 1-1/4 inch body and 3/16 inch shackle, and the ABUS 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle and 1-1/2 inch body. For a brass body instead of aluminum, the Schlage KS23D/KS23F has a 5/16 inch shackle, and the Medeco 5260 runs a 7/16 inch shackle with M3 key technology. The A1307 sits above the safety locks on shackle size at 3/8 inch diameter with a 3 inch shackle.
14) Which padlocks are brass-body alternatives to the American Lock A1307 aluminum padlock?
The A1307 body is aluminum, 2 inches wide, with a 3/8 inch boron alloy shackle. Brass-body choices include the Medeco 5260 52 Series with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter, M3 key technology and satin chrome finish, the Schlage KS23D/KS23F brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, and the Sargent 758 key retaining padlock in US4 satin brass. Brass bodies add weight compared with the aluminum A1307, and shackle diameters differ, so confirm the hasp opening before switching.
15) Is the ABUS 74/40 a substitute for the American Lock A1307 in an electrical lockout application?
They are not the same type of lock. 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 width, so the insulation is part of the product. The American Lock A1307 is a solid aluminum body lock, 2 inches wide with a 3/8 inch shackle, finished in black anodize and offered in blue, brown, red and yellow bodies for color coding. If the specification calls for an insulated lock, the 74/40 is the one that carries that construction; if it calls for a heavier solid metal body with color-coded identification, the A1307 does.
16) What should I use instead of the American Lock A1307 if the key must not stay in the lock when it is open?
The A1307 is a rekeyable padlock with a 5-pin APTC12 cylinder. If retention behavior is what drives the choice, the Sargent 858 is a non-key-retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in US4 satin brass and the Sargent 758 is the key retaining version in the same finish; the Medeco 54515G XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock is also non-key retaining with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and ships with cylinder. Specify retention explicitly, since it is a functional difference rather than a finish option.
17) We want electronic audit capability on padlocks rather than the mechanical American Lock A1307. What is the option?
The Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and supplied with cylinder. The American Lock A1307 is mechanical, using a rekeyable 5-pin APTC12 cylinder in a 2 inch wide solid aluminum body with a 3 inch tall, 3/8 inch boron shackle, and can be ordered keyed different, keyed alike, master keyed or zero-bitted. The electronic platform requires its own credentials and programming, so the two do not interchange on one key system.
18) How many A1307 padlocks come in a box if I am buying for a whole property?
The A1307 ships 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton. If you are outfitting a storage facility or standardizing lockers across a building, ordering in master carton multiples keeps the keying run consistent.
19) Is the A1307 a commercial grade padlock or a homeowner lock?
Commercial. The A1307 is a solid body padlock built for self-storage units, lockers, manufacturing plants and exposed outdoor openings, and it supports Edge key control, custom keying, laser engraving and custom marking, and alternate shackle options, which are the things a facility or fleet buyer needs and a homeowner never asks for.
