American Lock AME-A3562WOKD 2KEY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the American Lock A3562WO padlock come with a core, or do I have to order the cylinder separately?
No core in the box. The A3562WO ships without a cylinder, so you supply the small format interchangeable core yourself. That is the point of the WO models: you drop in a core from the same SFIC system already running your building, in any of 16 SFIC keyways including Best, Arrow and Falcon, and the padlock keys up on the same key as your door locks. If you don't already run an SFIC system, order a keyed padlock instead, because this one is a body only until a core goes in.
2) Will the A3562WO padlock shackle fit through my hasp?
Check three numbers against the hasp. The shackle is 5/16 inch diameter, so the hasp eye has to pass 5/16 inch stock. Clearance between the shackle legs is 3/4 inch, which is what has to straddle the hasp staple or chain link. Shackle length is 3 inches, and the body is 1-3/4 inches wide. On a tight hasp with a shallow staple, the 3 inch shackle gives plenty of vertical reach; the 3/4 inch inside width is the dimension that usually decides it.
3) What does "keyed different" mean on the A3562WOKD, and how is it different from keyed alike or master keyed?
Keyed different means each padlock operates on its own key and no two are alike, which suits assigning individual locks to individual people or points. American Lock builds the same 1-3/4 inch brass SFIC body in the other keying arrangements too: A3562WOKA is keyed alike so one key runs the whole set, A3562WOUN is uncombinated for a shop that pins its own, A3562WOMK is keyed different under a master key, and A3562WOKAMK is keyed alike under a master key. Pick by how the fleet is administered, not by the lock, since the bodies are identical.
4) Which padlock holds up outdoors near salt water or in a wash-down area?
Brass body is the reason to pick the A3562WO for coastal, marine and caustic locations. The solid brass body resists corrosion where a plated steel body pits, and the shackle is hardened boron alloy steel for cut resistance rather than a soft brass shackle. American Lock lists it for marine and offshore security, tool cribs and utility work. If you want stainless instead of brass, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, also supplied less cylinder.
5) I already run Best SFIC cores on my doors. Will this padlock take the same core and key?
That is exactly what the A3562WO is for. It accepts a small format interchangeable core in 16 keyway options including Best, Arrow and Falcon, so the padlock joins the same keying system as your door cylinders and one key opens both. Pin or order the core to your existing keyway and bitting; the padlock body itself is keyway-neutral until the core goes in.
6) Which padlock should I use instead of the American Lock A3562WO for a lockout tagout program?
The A3562WO is a commercial brass padlock built around a small format interchangeable core, which is a keyed-system lock rather than a personal safety lock. For lockout tagout use, 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 narrower in the body than the 1-3/4 inch wide A3562WO and use a smaller shackle diameter than its 5/16 inch.
7) What is the closest brass-body interchangeable core padlock to the American Lock A3562WO if I need one that ships with a cylinder already in it?
The A3562WO is a brass-body padlock supplied without a cylinder, so the core is bought and keyed separately into your existing small format system. If you want a brass padlock that arrives as a complete lock, the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle, the same shackle diameter the A3562WO carries. The Medeco 5260 is also a brass body padlock, using M3 key technology in a satin chrome finish with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter, a heavier shackle than the 5/16 inch on the American Lock.
8) I keep my facility on a removable core system - what are the alternatives to the American Lock A3562WO that also take a core rather than a fixed cylinder?
The A3562WO is a small format interchangeable core padlock supplied without a cylinder, so it accepts the core you already stock. Two other core-accepting padlocks: the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, and the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock supplied less pop-out cylinder with a solid stainless steel body. The A3562WO differs from both in body material, being solid brass rather than stainless steel, and it carries a 3 inch shackle length against the 2 inch stainless shackle on the Sargent.
9) Is the Sargent 758 a drop-in substitute for the American Lock A3562WO?
They are not the same kind of lock. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, and the Sargent 858 is the non-key retaining version with a stainless steel shackle in the same US4 satin brass. Both are built as complete padlocks. The A3562WO is supplied without a cylinder and takes a small format interchangeable core, so it only becomes a working lock once your core goes in. If you are standardizing on interchangeable cores, the Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock is the closer match in that line.
10) Can I get the American Lock A3562WO with a chain so it doesn't get lost or dropped?
Yes. Order it either with no chain or with a #40 sash chain, 9 inches (229mm) long, zinc plated, attached. The chain option is worth it on gate valves, meter pits and utility work where a dropped padlock is gone. Both chain choices are offered against every key quantity.
11) How many keys come with the A3562WO padlock and can I order extras?
Key count is something you specify on the order: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 keys per lock, with 2 per lock as the standard. Order 0 keys when you are cutting your own from the core system, and 3 or 4 when several crew members need to open the same lock. Remember the keys follow the core, since this padlock ships without a cylinder.
12) What is the difference between the American Lock A3560WO, A3561WO and A3562WO padlocks?
All three are the same 1-3/4 inch wide solid brass small format interchangeable core body sold without a cylinder; the model number tracks the shackle. The A3562 carries a 3 inch shackle, the long one, for thick hasps, chain, and gate and fence work where you need reach. The A3560WO and A3561WO are the shorter shackle versions of the same padlock. If you are standardizing a site, you can mix shackle lengths and still run one core system across all of them.
13) What other brass body padlocks could I use instead of the American Lock A3562WO?
Two close relatives, depending on how you key them. The Sargent 758 is a key retaining brass padlock in US4 satin brass, and the Sargent 858 is the non-key retaining version with a stainless steel shackle; Sargent also offers the 60-858-2 removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless shackle if a removable core is what you are after. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with the same 5/16 inch shackle diameter as the A3562WO. The distinction to hold on to: the A3562WO takes a small format interchangeable core and ships without one, so it only makes sense if you are keying it into an SFIC system.
14) For a dock gate on salt water, is the American Lock A3562WO or a stainless padlock the right call?
The A3562WO uses a solid brass body for corrosion resistance in caustic, corrosive and salty environments, with a hardened boron alloy shackle and a dual stainless steel ball bearing locking mechanism. If you would rather put stainless steel in the weather, 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 T84MB/30 is a much lighter lock than the 1-3/4 inch wide, 5/16 inch shackle A3562WO.
15) What brass-cased padlock alternatives to the American Lock A3562WO leave the key free while the lock is open?
The A3562WO is a solid brass 1-3/4 inch wide padlock supplied without a cylinder, so key retention depends on the core you fit. If you need a non-key-retaining lock as supplied, the Sargent 82-856 has a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case with a stainless steel shackle and is non-key retaining, and the Sargent 858 is non-key retaining with a stainless steel shackle in US4 satin brass. The Medeco 54515G XT electronic indoor/outdoor padlock is also non-key retaining, comes with a cylinder, and shares the 5/16 inch shackle diameter of the A3562WO.
16) We are moving to audited access on remote cabinets - what replaces a keyed padlock like the American Lock A3562WO?
The A3562WO is a mechanical padlock that keys into a small format interchangeable core system. Where you want electronic credentials instead of a mechanical key, the Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and supplied with a cylinder. The shackle diameter matches the 5/16 inch on the A3562WO, so the hasp opening that takes one will generally take the other.
17) Which padlock has the smaller body if the American Lock A3562WO will not fit my hasp?
The A3562WO body is 1-3/4 inch wide with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle and 3/4 inch shackle width. Narrower bodies in the same padlock family include the ABUS 76/40 plastic-covered aluminum core padlock at 1-37/64 inch wide with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter, the ABUS 72/30 at 1-1/4 inch wide with a 3/16 inch shackle, and the ABUS T84MB/30 at 1-17/64 inch wide with a 13/64 inch shackle. Each of those uses a thinner shackle than the A3562WO, so check both the hasp slot and the staple before you swap.
18) Is the A3562WO a commercial-duty padlock or a consumer one?
Commercial. The A3562WO is built for commercial and industrial use: solid brass body, hardened boron alloy steel shackle, and a dual stainless steel ball bearing locking mechanism that grips the shackle on both legs to resist pulling and prying. The dual ball bearing detail matters on a padlock that will get hit with a pry bar, since a single-latch mechanism releases when one side is defeated.
19) How does the American Lock A3562WO ship for a bulk order across a property portfolio?
The A3562WO packs 6 to a shelf pack and 24 to a master carton, which is the unit to quote against when you are standardizing padlocks across a portfolio. Since it takes an interchangeable core, buying the bodies in carton quantity and coring them in-house is the usual way large sites handle rekeying without ordering a new lock each time a key walks.
20) What color or finish is the American Lock A3562 brass padlock?
Gold, which is the natural finish of the solid brass body rather than a plating. Practically that means the surface will weather to a darker patina outdoors while the corrosion resistance stays put, which is normal for brass and not a defect. If you want a padlock that keeps a uniform silver appearance, the Medeco 5260 brass body padlock is offered in satin chrome.
