American Lock A5100KA-36567 Steel Keyed Alike Padlock

Product Description

The AMERICAN LOCK A5100KA-36567 is a steel-body padlock designed for keyed-alike applications where a single key must operate multiple locks across a facility or jobsite. The rectangular body measures 1.5 inches wide and 0.75 inches thick, housing a 5-pin tumbler cylinder for reliable pick resistance. The shackle is constructed from boron alloy steel, which offers greater cut resistance than standard hardened steel, and measures 0.25 inches in diameter with a 0.75-inch width and 1-inch clearance height. This padlock is suited for electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and other trade professionals who need consistent keying across lockout/tagout or access-control setups.

The A5100KA-36567 fits keyed-alike lockout programs common in commercial and industrial settings. Its compact rectangular body and moderate shackle clearance make it practical for hasps, tool cabinets, gates, electrical panel lockouts, and equipment enclosures. The keyed-alike designation means multiple units in a set share the same key bitting, reducing the number of keys a technician must carry on a job. This model is sold individually and is appropriate for both new installations and expanding an existing keyed-alike set.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools beyond threading the shackle through the hasp or locking point and snapping it closed. Electricians and HVAC technicians using this padlock for lockout/tagout must follow OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 control of hazardous energy procedures and verify that all energy sources are isolated before applying the lock. Confirm shackle clearance is sufficient for the hasp or anchor point before deployment. Do not force the shackle into an undersized opening, as this can damage the locking mechanism.
