FAQs

What is the difference between the Kasp 120 series and other series?

How many keys are included?

This padlock is supplied with two keys.

Can I get replacement keys if I lose them?

For this specific model, replacement keys are generally not available. It is recommended to keep your keys in a safe place or purchase a new padlock if keys are lost.

What is the warranty on this padlock?

Please refer to the product packaging or Kasp's official website for specific warranty information, as warranty terms can vary.

Is this padlock suitable for high-security applications?

The Kasp Brass Padlock - 30mm is designed for general-purpose security. For high-security needs, it is recommended to look for padlocks specifically rated for higher security levels, often featuring larger shackles, anti-pick mechanisms, and hardened steel bodies.

Troubleshooting

Padlock is stiff or difficult to open/close.

Ensure the key is fully inserted. Try lubricating the lock mechanism with a graphite lubricant or light oil. Check the keyhole for any debris.

Key will not turn.

Make sure the padlock is not under tension (i.e., the shackle is not being pulled or pushed). Try wiggling the key gently while turning. Ensure you are using the correct key.

Padlock is stuck in the locked position.

Check if there is any obstruction preventing the shackle from fully engaging. Try applying slight pressure to the shackle while turning the key. Lubrication might also help.

Key is lost or broken.

As this is a general-purpose padlock, replacement keys are not typically available. You may need to purchase a new padlock. Contact Kasp customer support for specific advice.
