| [Wanted] Big Padlock required urgently. |
|
I need a Big very secure serious padlock to lock up a shipping container.
Needs to be enclosed shackle or Block type.
Plenty to buy online for @£100-£120, but the trouble is I need it for Tuesday morning and nobody will guarantee postage by then.
No stores appear to have stock of anything suitable locally, even Screwfix don't have stock of the decent range they sell.
Does anyone local to South Hampshire have one I can buy or even borrow until I can get one delivered.
Thanks
Nasher. Heaven doesn't want me, and hell is afraid I'll take over.

Given your location might it be worth contacting some of the shipping container companies in Southampton to see if they have any? When we bought our last 20' container we bought a good quality Yale container lock from the people selling the container. Companies which hire them out for storage may also have a stock. Currently 2009 Disco 3 SE, 2013 MY D4 HSE and 2016 D4 SE
Previously:
TD5 Defender 110 CSW (230k miles)
300TDi Disco 1 (289k)
4 RR Classics (300-350k each, 2 manual, 2 auto)
110 V8 CSW (220k)
S3 109 hi cap pickup (ex RN)
S2A 88 Safari SW with lpg conversion (bloody lethal)

Thanks guys.
I can't leave another vehicle in front of it at the site where it's stored.
If I don't have any luck I'll try phoning some local companies on Tuesday morning.
Unfortunately being bank holiday weekend, and having just discovered this evening that I need it by @10.00hrs Tuesday morning I'm a bit stuck.

Southampton don’t have any stock nor do the 5 nearest stores.
If you try one of the big self storage outlets they also sell locks
