American Lock AME-A3261WOKA 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Lock A3261WOKA padlock come with a cylinder core?
No core is included. The A3261WOKA ships as a shell only, built to take a small format interchangeable core that you supply or have keyed by your locksmith. That is what the WO in the model designation means. It is offered in 16 SFIC keyway options including Best, Arrow and Falcon, so the padlock can be pulled onto the same key system as your door locks. If you want a lock that arrives ready to use out of the box, you need a padlock supplied with a cylinder instead.
2) What does keyed alike mean on the A3261WOKA, and how do I specify the key code?
Keyed alike means every padlock on the order opens with the same key, which is how property managers and facilities buyers handle gates, storage rooms and tool cribs without a ring of keys. There is a Key Code field on the order so you can add locks to an existing keyed alike group later. If you need each lock on its own key, the keyed different version is the A3261WO; for uncombinated shells, the A3261WOUN.
3) Will a 3/8 inch shackle padlock fit a standard hasp or chain link gate latch?
The shackle is 3/8 inch in diameter with a 3/4 inch clearance between the legs and 2 inches of shackle length, so it needs a hasp slot or gate hardware that accepts a 3/8 inch pin. Lighter hasps punched for 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch shackles will not take it. Measure the opening in your hasp before ordering: if it is tight, a smaller diameter lock like the ABUS 74/40 with its 1/4 inch shackle or the Schlage KS23D with a 5/16 inch shackle is the fit.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the American Lock A3261WOKA if I need a removable core padlock with a 2 inch shackle from another brand?
The Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, which is the nearest match to the A3261WOKA's small format interchangeable core design and 2 inch shackle length. The American Lock A3261WOKA has a steel body in a silver finish with a 3/8 inch shackle diameter and ships without a cylinder so you can install your own core; the Sargent is built around its own removable core system, so confirm the core format your facility is keyed to before you swap one for the other.
5) Which padlock should I use instead of the American Lock A3261WOKA for an outdoor or wash-down location?
For exposed outdoor or wet locations, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body supplied less its pop-out cylinder, and the Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter supplied with a cylinder. The American Lock A3261WOKA uses a chrome plated solid steel body with a 3/8 inch shackle and is a mechanical keyed lock, so it is the choice where you want a keyed small format core rather than a weather-sealed or electronic housing.
6) Can I order the A3261WOKA padlock with a chain for a gate or storage unit?
Yes. Each lock can be ordered with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, or with no chain at all. The chain option keeps the padlock tethered to the hasp or door so it does not walk off between uses, which is the usual choice for self-storage units, lockers and fence gates.
7) Is the A3261WOKA padlock tough enough for outdoor gates and fences?
The body is 2 inch wide case hardened, chrome plated solid steel, which resists cutting, sawing and corrosion, and the shackle is hardened boron alloy for cut resistance. A dual stainless steel ball bearing locking mechanism resists pulling and prying. American Lock lists it for security gates and fences, self-storage units and lockers, secured storage and tool cribs. It is a commercial duty lock, not a residential one.
8) Can I use an ABUS safety padlock in place of the American Lock A3261WOKA for lockout tagout?
No - the ABUS 72 Series 72/30 is an anodized aluminum safety padlock with a 1-1/4 inch body and 3/16 inch shackle, and the ABUS 74 Series 74/40 is an insulated safety padlock with a 6-pin cylinder, 1/4 inch shackle and 1-1/2 inch body. Those are lightweight, non-conductive style locks intended for personnel lockout. The American Lock A3261WOKA is a 2 inch wide steel body padlock with a 3/8 inch shackle built for security applications such as gates, storage units and tool cribs, and it takes a small format interchangeable core rather than a fixed safety cylinder.
9) How are American Lock A3261 padlocks packed for a bulk facility order?
Shelf pack is 6 locks and the master carton holds 24. Institutional and MRO buyers standardizing a building usually order in those multiples and keep them on one keyed alike code so a single key runs the whole set.
10) Is a corrosion-resistant sleeve padlock like the ABUS T84MB/30 or 76/40 a substitute for the A3261WOKA?
They serve different openings. The ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is a black sleeve padlock with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and a 1-17/64 inch body, and the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock with a 1/4 inch shackle and roughly 1-37/64 inch width - both are small-bodied locks with protective coverings. The American Lock A3261WOKA is a 2 inch wide chrome plated solid steel body with a 3/8 inch boron alloy shackle and takes a small format interchangeable core, so it is the one to use when the lock has to key into an existing facility system.
