The AB Tools 100mm Heavy Duty Hasp and Staple is an essential security solution for homeowners, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts looking to protect sheds, garage doors, and outbuildings. Designed for both commercial and occasional residential use, this durable hardware provides a robust locking mechanism with a tamper-resistant design that hides mounting screws once engaged. While the black powder-coated finish offers excellent weather resistance, users should note that the unit does not include a padlock, which must be purchased separately to complete the security setup.

No, this product includes the hasp and staple hardware only. You will need to purchase a padlock separately.
While it is designed primarily for wood, it can be used on metal if you replace the provided wood screws with appropriate metal-tapping screws.
Yes, the product includes 8 x 20mm screws necessary for installation.
The powder-coated finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, though regular cleaning is recommended if installed in coastal areas.
The unit measures approximately 100mm in length.
Check if the mounting surface is uneven and use small shims if necessary to create a level plane for the hardware.
The pilot holes may be too large. Use a smaller drill bit for the pilot holes or consider using slightly longer screws if the wood is soft.
Clean the area with a wire brush to remove the rust and apply a high-quality outdoor-rated black enamel paint to seal the metal.
Installation is straightforward but requires basic tools including a drill, a screwdriver, and a measuring tape. First, hold the hasp and staple in your desired position and mark the screw holes with a pencil. Drill small pilot holes to prevent wood splitting, then secure the components using the provided 8 x 20mm screws.
Compatibility: This 100mm unit is compatible with most standard wooden garden doors, shed doors, and storage lockers.
Care: To maintain the integrity of the black powder-coated finish, inspect the unit annually for any scratches that could expose raw metal. If chips occur, apply a touch-up paint suitable for metal to prevent rust from forming. Ensure the pivot point remains lubricated if the hasp feels stiff during daily operation.
