Product Information
Full details
The CISA 28550-66 Container Padlock is designed for users needing robust security for storage containers, shipping containers, and high-security gates. Its primary benefit is its hardened steel construction and anti-tamper features that resist sawing, picking, and drilling. A potential caveat is the need for specialized pinning options like master keying, which may require additional workshop time.

FAQs
What is the difference between Keyed Differ, Keyed Alike, and Master Keyed?
Keyed Differ means each lock has a unique key. Keyed Alike means all locks in a set use the same key. Master Keyed means each lock has its own key, but a master key can open all locks in the set.
Can I order extra keys for my CISA 28550-66 padlock?
Yes, extra keys can be cut for all keying options. For duplicate keys or future matching locks, key registration is recommended.
Is this padlock suitable for outdoor storage containers?
Yes, the CISA 28550-66 is built with hardened steel and anti-corrosion properties making it suitable for demanding outdoor environments and weather exposure.
What are the dimensions of the padlock?
The CISA 28550-66 has a body size of 66mm wide, 59mm high, and 25mm deep, with a 10mm shackle diameter.
How does the anti-saw shackle work?
The anti-saw shackle is designed with hardened materials and often a design that makes it difficult for sawing tools to gain purchase and cut through effectively.
What is the benefit of key registration?
Key registration allows CISA to record your lock's pinning sequence. This provides a secure record for ordering duplicate keys or replacement locks in the future, ensuring you receive the correct key without needing the original.
Can the lock be drilled or picked easily?
No, the lock features an anti-pick and anti-drill keyway designed to resist common methods of forced entry through manipulation or drilling.
Troubleshooting
Key will not insert or turn
Ensure the shackle is fully open and the lock is in a neutral position. Check for any debris in the keyway. If using a new set of keys, confirm it is the correct key for this lock. If the lock has been exposed to extreme cold, condensation may have frozen inside.
Padlock shackle is difficult to close
Verify that the hasp or locking mechanism is properly aligned. Remove any obstructions. Ensure the lock is not under excessive tension from the hasp.
Corrosion or stiffness over time
Clean the lock thoroughly. Apply a graphite lubricant or silicone spray into the keyway and operate the key several times to ensure smooth movement. Avoid using oil-based lubricants, which can attract dirt.
Lost keys
If you registered your key pinning with CISA and opted for key registration, contact CISA support with your registration details to order replacement keys. If not registered, a new lock may be required.
