American Lock AME-A1307MK BLU 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the MK in American Lock A1307MK mean for keying?
MK means the padlock is supplied keyed different and master keyed: every lock gets its own change key, and a master key opens the group. That suits a property manager or maintenance lead who wants one key for all the padlocks while each tenant or crew only opens their own. If you want every lock to share the same change key under a master instead, that is the A1307KAMK. Plain keyed different with no master is the A1307 (A1307KD), and keyed alike with no master is the A1307KA.
2) Will the American Lock A1307 padlock shackle fit through my hasp?
Check two numbers. The shackle is 3/8 inch diameter, so the hasp eye has to pass a 3/8 inch rod. Clearance between the shackle legs is 3/4 inch, and the shackle stands 3 inches tall, which is what lets it reach over thick hasps, chain links or a gate latch. Body width is 2 inches, so allow that much space for the lock to hang.
3) Can these padlocks be rekeyed into an existing American Lock master key system?
The A1307 uses a rekeyable 5-pin APTC12 cylinder with tens of thousands of key changes, so a locksmith can pin it to your existing bitting rather than replacing the lock. The MK version ships keyed different under a master. American Lock also offers Edge key control, keying options, laser engraving and custom marking, and shackle options on this family.
4) What is the closest alternative to the American Lock A1307MK if I need a padlock that accepts an interchangeable core instead of a rekeyable pin cylinder?
The A1307MK uses a rekeyable 5-pin APTC12 cylinder in a 2 inch wide solid aluminum body. If your facility keying is built on interchangeable cores, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, so the lock takes the core your system already uses rather than being pinned in the body.
5) I need a lockout/tagout safety padlock, not a security padlock like the A1307MK. What should I use?
The A1307MK is a commercial solid aluminum padlock with a 3/8 inch diameter boron shackle, built for security duty rather than energy isolation. For lockout work 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 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1-1/2 inch body width. Both are lighter bodies with thinner shackles sized for hasps and breaker lockout devices.
6) What is a heavier-duty substitute for the A1307MK aluminum padlock in a coastal or wash-down location?
The A1307MK body is solid aluminum with a black anodized finish. If you want a non-aluminum body for salt spray or wash-down exposure, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, and the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter in satin chrome. The 5260 shackle is larger in diameter than the 3/8 inch shackle on the A1307MK, so confirm your hasp eye will pass it.
7) I need audit trail and electronic access control on padlocked gates instead of a mechanical master key system. What replaces the A1307MK?
The A1307MK is a mechanical master keyed padlock on a rekeyable pin cylinder. For electronic credential control the Medeco 54515G XT is an indoor/outdoor electronic padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included. That changes the key management from cut keys to programmed credentials, and its shackle is smaller in diameter than the 3/8 inch shackle on the A1307MK.
8) How is the A1307 different from the A1305 and A1306 American Lock aluminum padlocks?
Same 2 inch solid aluminum body across all three; the difference is shackle height. The A1307 carries the tall 3 inch shackle for reaching over thick hasps, stacked chain or a gap between gate posts. The A1305 and A1306 are the shorter-shackle versions of the same body. If the shackle only has to pass through a standard hasp staple, the shorter models cut down on what a bolt cutter can grab.
9) Can I use these aluminum padlocks outdoors on gates and yard equipment?
Yes. The solid aluminum body with a black anodized finish is built for harsh outdoor conditions, manufacturing environments, and self-storage units and lockers. The shackle is boron alloy steel for cut resistance, and the dual ball bearing locking mechanism resists pulling and prying. It is classed as a commercial padlock, not a residential one.
10) Can I color code American Lock A1307MK padlocks by department or building?
Yes, the lock body comes in blue, brown, red and yellow, so you can split a master keyed set by trade, building or shift and still open everything with one master key. Colors can be mixed within the same keying system since the color is body finish only.
11) How many keys come with each American Lock A1307MK padlock and can I order fewer?
Standard is 2 keys per lock. You can also order 1, 3 or 4 keys per lock, or 0 keys per lock when you are cutting keys yourself or the keys ship separately with the master key system. On a large master keyed order, dropping to 1 key or 0 keys per lock keeps loose keys out of circulation.
12) Can I get the A1307MK padlock with a chain attached?
Yes. Each configuration is offered either with no chain or with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated. The chain version keeps the padlock tethered to the hasp or door so it does not walk off or get dropped in the gravel, which is the usual reason storage and fleet accounts spec it.
13) What other padlocks should I consider instead of the American Lock A1307 aluminum body?
If you want a metal-bodied lock in a different material, the Sargent 858 is a non-key-retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in US4 satin brass, and the Sargent 60-858-2 is the removable core version with a 2 inch stainless shackle, which suits a facility already standardized on interchangeable cores. Medeco's 5260 is a 52 Series brass body with a 7/16 inch shackle and M3 key technology if you need high-security key control. Schlage's KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. For lockout/tagout rather than security, look at the ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock, 1-1/4 inch body with a 3/16 inch shackle. Note the A1307's shackle is 3/8 inch diameter, heavier than any of those.
14) Is the American Lock A1307MK a good choice for lockout/tagout?
No. It is a security padlock, keyed different under a master key, which is the opposite of what LOTO needs (one worker, one key, no master override). For lockout use a dedicated safety padlock such as the ABUS 72/30 anodized aluminum safety padlock or the ABUS 74/40 insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder. Use the A1307MK for gates, storage units, lockers and equipment enclosures where a maintenance master key is wanted.
15) Does the A1307MK hold the key captive when unlocked, and what are the alternatives either way?
On padlocks this is called key retaining versus non-key retaining, and it decides whether a driver can walk off with the key while the gate is open. Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in US4 satin brass, while the Sargent 858 is the non-key retaining version with a stainless steel shackle in the same US4 satin brass finish, and the Sargent 82-856 is non-key retaining with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and stainless steel shackle. The A1307MK body is 2 inches wide in solid aluminum if you want to stay with aluminum instead of brass.
16) My hasps only accept a short shackle. Is there an option with less clearance than the A1307MK?
The A1307MK carries a 3 inch shackle length with a 3/4 inch shackle width, which gives generous clearance through a gate hasp or chain link. Where the hasp is tight, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, a shorter reach that still takes a facility core. Measure the hasp eye opening and the loop clearance before switching.
17) How do American Lock A1307MK padlocks ship for a bulk order?
They come 6 per shelf pack and 24 per master carton, which is the usual way a facility buys a keying group. Keep in mind that on a keyed different master keyed order, the individual locks each carry a unique change key, so label them as you deploy.
