Schlage KS72F2300 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Schlage KS72F2300 padlock be keyed into our existing Schlage master key system?
That is the main reason to buy this one. Schlage portable security products can be master keyed into any new or existing Schlage key system, so the padlock runs on the same key as the door hardware instead of adding another key to the ring. It uses a conventional key-in-lever cylinder, 6-pin solid brass, pinned 5, in the C keyway, and ships keyed different unless otherwise specified. If you want it to work in your system, that keying has to be called out on the order, not assumed.
2) Will a 7/16 inch shackle fit through my hasp and chain?
The shackle on the KS72F2300 is 7/16 inch diameter with 2 inches of vertical clearance and 7/8 inch between the legs. Your hasp staple has to accept a 7/16 inch pin, and whatever you are locking through has to fit inside a 2 inch by 7/8 inch opening. Gate chain and heavy hasps normally take it; smaller cabinet and locker hasps punched for a 1/4 inch shackle will not.
3) Does the KS72F2300 come with a cylinder and keys, or do I have to order those separately?
It ships complete. The KS72F2300 is the key-in-lever cylinder version, so the cylinder is installed, and two nickel silver cut keys branded Schlage come with each lock. Cylinder finish is 606 satin brass. Nothing else is required to put it in service.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage KS72F2300 padlock if the facility keys to Sargent instead of Schlage?
The Sargent 858 is the comparable non-key-retaining standard padlock, supplied with a stainless steel shackle in a US4 satin brass finish. The Schlage KS72F2300 carries a key-in-lever cylinder with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter and 2 inch clearance, and it can be master keyed into a new or existing Schlage key system. If the site already runs Sargent keying, the 858 keeps the padlocks on the same key family as the door hardware; if the site runs Schlage, the KS72F2300 does. That is the deciding factor, not the lock body.
5) Is there a padlock with the same 2 inch shackle clearance as the Schlage KS72F2300 for tall hasps?
The Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, matching the 2 inch clearance the Schlage KS72F2300 provides. Two inches of clearance is what gets a shackle around a chain link, a thick hasp staple, or a doubled cable. The 60-858-2 takes a removable core, which lets a locksmith rekey it at the opening; the KS72F2300 comes with its key-in-lever cylinder installed.
6) Is this padlock tough enough for outdoor gates and yard use?
It is built for commercial duty. The shackle is molybdenum hardened alloy steel for cut resistance, the lock body is steel, and the whole lock meets or exceeds ASTM standards for standard steel shackle, shackle cutting and corrosion resistance. A double deadbolt locking mechanism holds both legs of the shackle rather than just one, so prying one side does not release it.
7) Should I use a conventional key-in-lever padlock or a small format interchangeable core padlock?
The KS72F2300 uses a conventional key-in-lever cylinder, which is the right pick when your building is keyed conventionally and you want the padlock on the same Schlage system as the doors. Go to a removable core padlock instead if your facility runs interchangeable cores and you rekey in-house by pulling cores. The Sargent 60-858-2 removable core padlock, with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle, is the removable core equivalent in that clearance.
8) What else could I buy with a 7/16 inch shackle if I am not on a Schlage key system?
The Medeco 5260, from the 52 Series, is a brass body padlock with the same 7/16 inch shackle diameter, using M3 key technology and a satin chrome finish. That is the closest match on shackle size from another brand. If you are keying to Sargent instead, the 758 is key retaining in US4 satin brass and the 858 is the non-key-retaining version with a stainless steel shackle.
9) I need padlocks that won't corrode on exterior gates by the coast. Is a steel padlock the wrong choice?
The Schlage commercial series bodies are offered in solid steel, brass and chrome plated brass, and the KS72F2300 body is steel, which resists impact. Brass and chrome plated brass are the corrosion resistant choices in the same family. If salt exposure is the main concern, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, and the ABUS T84MB/30 Nautic is a sleeved marine lock with a 13/64 inch shackle and 1-17/64 inch body.
10) For an outdoor gate or exposed hasp, what padlock holds up better than the Schlage KS72F2300?
The KS72F2300 body is steel with a molybdenum hardened steel shackle and meets or exceeds ASTM standards for shackle cutting and corrosion resistance. For a fully exposed opening, the Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less pop-out cylinder. The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included. The G8R keeps a mechanical key; the 54515G moves the opening onto electronic credentials with an audit path.
11) Which padlock keeps the key captive when the lock is open, since the Schlage KS72F2300 does not?
The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish, so the key cannot be withdrawn while the shackle is open. Among the Sargent options the 858 and the 82-856 are non-key retaining. Key retaining is the choice for tool cribs and cage doors where a lock left hanging open should not let the key walk off; non-key retaining suits routes where one key opens many locks in sequence.
12) Does the Schlage KS72F2300 work as a locker or tote padlock, or is a lighter lock better?
The KS72F2300 is a steel-bodied commercial padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle and a double deadbolt locking mechanism, sized for gates, cages and exterior hasps. For lockers, totes and light indoor use the ABUS 76/40 is a plastic-covered aluminum core padlock with a 1/4 inch shackle diameter and 1 37/64 inch width, and the ABUS T84MB/30 has a black sleeve and a 13/64 inch shackle diameter with a 1 17/64 inch body width, sold in a three-pack. The smaller shackle diameters fit narrow locker latches that a 7/16 inch shackle will not enter.
13) What padlock gives higher key control than the Schlage KS72F2300 for a facility worried about key duplication?
The KS72F2300 uses a conventional 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder in the C keyway, shipped keyed different unless specified otherwise, with two nickel silver keys per lock. For tighter key control the Medeco 5260 uses M3 key technology, and the Sargent 82-856 is a KESO Series padlock with a 2 x 2 inch brass case and stainless steel shackle. Those are restricted key platforms; the Schlage C keyway lets the padlock join a key system the building already runs.
14) Can a Medeco 521 G8R be ordered as a drop-in replacement for a Schlage KS72F2300?
Not as a drop-in. The Medeco 521 G8R is supplied less pop-out cylinder, so a cylinder has to be ordered and fitted before the lock will operate, and it lives on the Medeco key platform. The Schlage KS72F2300 arrives with its key-in-lever cylinder in place and two cut keys, ready to hang on the hasp. The Sargent 60-858-2 similarly needs a removable core supplied to it. If the requirement is a padlock that works out of the carton on a Schlage key system, the cylinder-included lock is the one.
15) Can the shackle be swapped out if it gets damaged or I need a different one?
Yes. Schlage uses a patented interchangeable shackle design on these commercial padlocks, so the lock comes apart easily and the shackle can be changed instead of scrapping the whole padlock. Useful on a fleet of gates where a cut shackle otherwise means rekeying a replacement lock into the system.
16) Will the keys stay in the lock while it's open, or do they come out?
Two cut keys come with each KS72F2300, and the description does not make it a key retaining lock. If you specifically need the key trapped in the cylinder until the shackle is closed again, so a gate never gets left unlocked, specify a key retaining padlock: the Sargent 758 is key retaining, while the Sargent 858 and the 82-856 are non-key retaining.
