Master Lock 311TRI Keyed Alike Laminated Steel Padlock , 3-Pack , Black

The locks were perfect although because the shanks were short I had to send them back. 😢

I purchased these Master padlocks because they are trusted products that WERE made in the USA. They work well to secure my outdoor storage cabinets and same key for all is very convenient.This will be my last purchase from this manufacturer because they have decided to make them in China now.Too bad because they have been good padlocks made by American workers. I will have to find another brand made in the USA for any future purchases.

The lock shackles are longer than pictured. OK for 2 of my uses but a bit too long for another.

What’s there to say about Master Lock. You get a high quality and reliable product at a reasonable price every time. The slick black cover on the body and cap over the keyhole is ideal for the outdoor application this was purchased for.

[EDITED WITH WARRANTY INFO AT BOTTOM]We purchased these 2+ years ago. Within 6 months I noticed the keyholes and inside the protective caps of the two used on outside of our house (underhouse storage, house built on sloped lot) were both turning white. At first I thought it was spiders or something but then a few months later noticed it on the one use to lock the side gate. It's like a white rust. Neither my husband or I have ever seen anything like it. The plastic casing on the most locked/unlocked one has cracked and it's now fairly impossible to pry the cap loose to insert the key.Even after using wd-40 the keys have always been difficult to turn in all 3 locks and must be inserted to relock the padlock.We should have replaced these before now but it's one of those things... we only unlock the sid maybe once a month or less and the storage area a few times a year. I'm ordering new locks now because when I attempted to unlock the gate last week to allow a service man entry it took several minutes to gain access. I'm afraid next time may require bolt cutters!All that being said, we have had fantastic results with all other Master Lock products and unless we encounter a similar situation will continue to purchase their products. I have to believe this particular item missed a step (protective coating?) in the manufacturing process for it to have failed so miserably. Although I don't expect a refund or replacement this far out I will be contacting the manufacturer to make them aware of the problem.A quick look at the Master Lock website and I found this info:One of their electronic locks is warrantied for 1 yr. everything else has a (limited) lifetime warranty. Basically, if you don't do something stupid to break it, it's covered. They will even replace a cable/lock cut by TSA!For fastest and easiest service, simply return the lock to the place of purchase for exchange. You may also contact Master Lock at 1-800-464-2088. For Canadian customers please call 1-800-227-9599.In my case, since we have to replace the locks anyway Amazon CS & I agreed it would be easiest all the way around if I buy a new set and then use that shipping/order info (they linked it to the old order number already) to return the defective locks for refund.I've also sent an email and photos to Master Lock because I truly believe something went wrong with these. I'll do a check once a month on the new ones & report back if we see the same problems.

The Master Lock 311TRI Keyed Alike Laminated Steel Padlock 3-Pack is both evidence for and a tribute to the benefits that come to Americans from the pairing of the two phrases "sold by Amazon" and "Made in China". The locks are actually quite good and robust, typical lower priced Master Lock products, and they look to serve well for several years. At the selling price of $20.00 (the price on Amazon at the time of this review) these locks are an incredible bargain. Some people may quibble with the relative weather resistance of these locks. The locks being clad in a rubberized shell and sold as weather resistant seems to make some people expect military grade hardware able to stand tall after twenty years in the jungle and several frontal assaults. But, to be realistic, these locks will serve well for your average garden gate, outside storage and so forth and, at the price, is it really a tragedy if they are replaced after several years service? I think not. These seem a real deal and good value to me. RECOMMENDED.

It's nice having three locks that use just one key! Easy to open the plug, easy to fit the key and unlock and also easy to close and lock it back up. All around good locks.

Three keyed alike, strong and low cost, buy them

I have been using these locks outdoors for the past to years. No rust. Lock and unlock like the day they were new. I lube them twice a year - before winter and in the spring. Smooth operation. A definite buy.

Buena calidad, lo que no me gustó es que sólo trae 2 llaves y son 3 candados

Product was as advertised

Muy buena calidad y precio

Very nice locks however you need the key inserted to lock them. Nice safety feature but a nuisance
