American Lock AME-A3262WOKA 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Lock A3262WOKA padlock come with a core, or do I have to buy the cylinder separately?
No core is included. The A3262WOKA ships as a body only, prepped for a small format interchangeable core, so you supply the SFIC to match your existing system. That is what lets a facility key the padlock into the same system as its door hardware instead of carrying a separate key.
2) Can I key this American Lock SFIC padlock to my Best, Arrow or Falcon keyway?
Yes. The A3262 solid steel body accepts small format interchangeable cores in a choice of 16 SFIC keyways, including Best, Arrow and Falcon, so the padlock can be brought onto the same key system as your door locks. You install the core you already use; the body itself is keyway-neutral.
3) What does the KA in A3262WOKA mean when I order several of these padlocks?
KA is keyed alike, meaning the group of padlocks you order operates on one common key rather than individual keys. If you want each lock on its own key, the same body is offered as the keyed different A3262WO, as A3262WOUN uncombinated, and in master keyed versions A3262WOMK and A3262WOKAMK. Since a keyed alike group has to be built to one code, there is a key code field on the order.
4) What is the closest alternative to the American Lock A3262WOKA if I need a padlock that accepts a removable core keyed into my existing system?
The American Lock A3262WOKA is a steel-body padlock shipped without a cylinder so a small format interchangeable core can be installed, with a 2 inch body width, 3/8 inch shackle diameter and 3 inch shackle length. The nearest equivalent from another maker is the Sargent 60-858-2, a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle. Both are ordered core-less so the core can be keyed to match the facility's door cylinders; the Sargent uses a stainless steel shackle where the American Lock uses a boron alloy shackle with a chrome plated solid steel body.
5) I need a padlock that comes with a cylinder already installed instead of one I have to core myself - what should I order?
The A3262WOKA is supplied without a cylinder, so it needs a small format interchangeable core added before it will operate. If you want a lock that arrives keyed and ready to hang, the Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and M3 key technology in satin chrome, and the Medeco 54515G is an XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter supplied with cylinder. The Medeco 5260 is brass bodied rather than the steel used on the American Lock.
6) Is this padlock tough enough for exterior gates and self-storage units?
It is built for that duty. The body is case hardened chrome plated solid steel, 2 inches wide, with a hardened boron alloy shackle for cut resistance and a dual stainless steel ball bearing locking mechanism that resists pulling and prying. American Lock calls out security gates and fences, self-storage units and lockers, secured storage and tool cribs as the applications, and the lock is classed commercial.
7) Can I get this American Lock padlock with a chain so it stays attached to the gate?
Yes. The A3262WOKA is offered either plain or with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches long, zinc plated, which keeps the lock tethered to the hasp or gate so it is not set down and lost. Pick the chain option on the order.
8) How many keys come with each of these keyed alike padlocks?
Key count is a choice, not a fixed number. Standard is 2 keys per lock, and you can also order 1, 3, 4, or 0 keys per lock. Zero is useful on a large keyed alike group where you only need a handful of keys total rather than a pair with every padlock.
9) What is the difference between the A3260, A3261 and A3262 solid steel SFIC padlocks?
They are the same solid steel small format interchangeable core family differing by shackle. The A3262 version carries a 3 inch shackle, which is the long-shackle option for reaching through gate chain, thick hasps or stacked lockers. If you are locking a tight hasp where a long shackle gives a cutter room to work, step down to the A3261 or A3260 in the same body.
10) I need a removable core padlock but not American Lock, what else is there?
Sargent makes a removable core padlock, the 60-858-2, with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, if you are standardizing on Sargent cores. For a non-interchangeable-core padlock, Sargent's 758 is key retaining in US4 satin brass and the 858 is non-key retaining with a stainless shackle, and Schlage's KS23D/KS23F is a brass body with a 5/16 inch shackle. The difference that matters: only a removable or interchangeable core lock lets you rekey in the field by swapping the core.
11) Is the American Lock A3262WOKA the right choice for lockout/tagout, or should I use something else?
The A3262WOKA is a commercial solid steel padlock intended for security gates and fences, self-storage units and lockers, tool cribs and secured storage. For lockout/tagout work, a dedicated safety padlock is the usual pick: 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 ABUS bodies are narrower and lighter than the 2 inch steel body of the American Lock.
12) What should I use instead of the A3262WOKA on an exposed outdoor or coastal opening?
The A3262WOKA uses a chrome plated solid steel body that resists cutting, sawing and corrosion, and it is a common choice on security gates and fences. Where salt exposure is the main concern, 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 is a black sleeve padlock with a 13/64 inch shackle diameter and 1-17/64 inch body width. The Medeco 521 G8R is, like the American Lock, ordered without its cylinder.
13) We standardize on Schlage cylinders - is there a padlock that matches instead of the American Lock A3262WOKA?
The A3262WOKA is built around a small format interchangeable core and is offered in 16 SFIC keyway options including Best, Arrow and Falcon so it can be matched to the door locks. If the facility keys to Schlage, the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a 20 Series brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle. Note the American Lock carries a larger 3/8 inch shackle diameter and a steel body against the Schlage brass body.
14) Will the Sargent 82-856 work as a drop-in replacement for the American Lock A3262WOKA?
Not as a like-for-like swap. The Sargent 82-856 is a non-key retaining padlock with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and a stainless steel shackle in the KESO series, so it is keyed to a Sargent KESO cylinder rather than accepting a small format interchangeable core. The A3262WOKA ships without a cylinder specifically so an SFIC core in one of 16 keyways can be fitted to match existing door hardware. The body widths are close at 2 inches, but the keying systems are not interchangeable.
15) How are these American Lock padlocks packaged for a bulk order?
They come 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton, which is worth knowing if you are buying a keyed alike group for a storage facility or a fence line and want to order in even packs.
16) What finish is the A3262 padlock body, and will it hold up outdoors?
Chrome plated solid steel, silver in appearance. American Lock states the solid steel body resists cutting, sawing and corrosion, which is why it is specified on exterior gates and fences.
