Container Locks

This is a simple product that is easily installed and pretty straightforward. Container padlocks are an inexpensive form of storage container security but is also easy to tamper with. Padlocks simple clip in where the hasps meet the horizontal locking rod and prevent the handles from being pulled outward and open. Consider using padlocks for low-grade storage containers that hold little to no product.

Lock Boxes

Container lock boxes require a little bit of handiwork to install, but they are an incredibly useful way to secure your container. They are installed on the seam between the two doors of the container and prevent the doors from being opened — even if the locking rods are disengaged from their positions. Lock boxes are cut, drill and pick resistant, so even the most determined of vandals or thieves will have a very hard time trying to get in.

Heavy Duty Door Lock

Heavy duty door locks are the highest level of security you can place on a storage container. The lock secures one door to the other to prevent the doors from being opened. They are a great, yet slightly expensive way, to achieve storage container security. For all of your storage container security needs and security equipment wants, contact Robertson Truck Group.
