Best keyed alike padlocks
Updated: October 2026
You want one key for a shed, a side gate or a locker, and every title in front of you says the locks match. The best keyed alike padlocks in this set are the packs whose keys agree on day one and whose shackle fits the hasp, not the listing with the loudest sales rank. Prices and stars are the amazon.co.uk figures in the [padlocks keyed alike comparison](/hub/door-and-window-security/padlocks-keyed-alike). None of the eight listings print a CEN grade or a Sold Secure mark, and there is no lab test here. A qualifying purchase can earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

What best can mean in this set
Best, on this page, means a carton you can believe and a bow that enters the staple. It does not mean a police test, and it does not mean the words heavy duty. The eight packs run from about £13.97 to about £31.01. Sharing a key does not change the tests a model has passed. It means one lost or copied key opens every lock in that suite.
An average-risk shed wants a lock the maker will describe in those words, with a shackle you can measure. A gate hasp that sits proud of the frame wants length, and that length is also more metal for a cutter. A covered body only helps if the cover passes the hole. If a policy names Sold Secure or a BS EN 12320 grade, leave this set. What a grade actually means is on the keyed alike padlock buying guide.
ABUS 64TI/40 when the risk is average
The clearest average-risk buy inside this set is the ABUS 64TI/40 four-pack, the top pick, at about £31.01. The listing is 4.7 from 386 reviews. You get four 40 mm locks and five keys. The shackle is stated as hardened steel, 6.5 mm thick, with 23 mm of clear height and 22 mm of clear width. That is enough to check a hasp before you order, which several cheaper titles never let you do.
ABUS prints security level 5 and says the lock is for medium-sized valuables or an average risk of theft. Level 5 is the maker's 1-to-10 scale. It is not CEN grade 5. United Kingdom reviews treat the shared key as the reason for buying, and they mention rain and about a year outdoors. Skip it when the staple needs more than about 23 mm of clear height, when you need a shrouded bow because the gate faces the street, or when an insurer has named a mark this listing does not show. One buyer had been told beforehand that the locks were not keyed alike, so you still try every key on the day the box arrives.
SEPOX four-pack when the hasp needs length
The SEPOX long-shackle four-pack is the best value in this set: about £18.96, 4.4 from 1,623 reviews, and rank 1 in Keyed Padlocks. Rank 1 is a sales position. It is not a grade, and no Sold Secure mark is printed. The title says a 58 mm shackle. That length is why people put it on a gate or a locker hasp that a 23 mm ABUS bow will not reach. The body is laminated alloy steel with a brass cylinder, and the warranty line says five years. The included-components line says four padlocks with the same key and does not number the keys. A United Kingdom review mentions two.
Buyers use them on gates, sheds and a school locker. One review says the shackle rusts in UK weather while the lock still works. Another said a hammer blow took a lock apart. A long open bow is also easier to get croppers onto than a short one. Choose this pack when the hole needs the length and the contents are the sort of thing you would still lock with an ungraded lock. Leave it when you read rank 1 as CEN 5. The three-pack at about £13.97 is a cheaper toolbox set, and its outdoor reviews disagree, so it is not the pick when the hasp is the problem. Rain and two different doors are on padlock for a shed and a gate.
Covered, discus, and when to leave the set
The KAWAHA 41/50 pair is two shrouded 50 mm locks and six keys at about £27.99, 4.5 from 21 reviews. The key comes out only when the lock is locked. One United Kingdom review left the pair on parking bollards for about six weeks of rain and saw no rust. Twenty-one reviews and six weeks are not a winter. Take the pair when you need two shrouded locks and you can accept a short sample.
The Maudex IP450 is four locks and 12 keys at about £26.99. Several United Kingdom reviews found only three the same, or two pairs, and one reviewer could not pass the rubber weather section through the hole in their gate bolts. The OGMBI discus six-pack is about £22.99 and 2.8 from 13 reviews. Several reviews say the keys do not match, and reviews also say rain gets in. A round body is not a close-shackle lock if half the keys are strangers. The SEPOX title that says six long-shackle locks is about £23.97 and prints 4.3 from 414 reviews, the same star line as the three-pack, while the included-components line says three padlocks and six keys. Count what is in the carton. If you need a printed CEN grade or a Sold Secure mark, leave the whole set.
Where to start
Start with the ABUS pack when the risk is the average risk ABUS itself names and a 6.5 mm open shackle fits. Start with the SEPOX long four-pack when the hasp needs about 58 mm and you have read the rust notes. A higher star rating in this file is not a Sold Secure mark. A code instead of a key is a different problem, set out on keyed padlock vs combination padlock. Peter F. checked the amazon.co.uk listings in this comparison. There is no laboratory test.
Common questions
Which of these packs is the sensible default?
For an average-risk shed or gate whose hasp takes a 6.5 mm shackle and about 23 mm of clear height, start with the ABUS 64TI/40 four-pack at about £31.01. It is 4.7 from 386 reviews, and the listing limits it to average risk. It is the wrong default if you need a printed CEN or Sold Secure mark, because this listing does not show one.
Is the number one keyed padlock on Amazon the best?
Rank 1 on the SEPOX long-shackle four-pack means it sells. The listing is about £18.96 and 4.4 from 1,623 reviews. It does not mean a security grade. One review says the shackle rusts in UK weather. Another says a hammer blow took a lock apart. Buy it for the 58 mm reach, not for the rank.
Is the ABUS four-pack worth more than the SEPOX four-pack?
It is worth the extra when you want a stated 6.5 mm shackle, five keys, and a maker who prints an average-risk limit, and you are comparing about £31.01 with about £18.96. It is not worth it when the hasp needs a 58 mm bow and the SEPOX length is the one that fits. Neither listing prints a CEN grade.
Should I buy the discus six-pack because the shape is closed?
Not from the reviews in this file. The OGMBI six-pack is 2.8 from 13 reviews at about £22.99. Several United Kingdom reviews say the keys do not match. A closed shape does not help if you are carrying the wrong key for four of the locks.
Who should not buy from this set at all?
Anyone whose insurer, or whose own rule for a bike or trade tools, names Sold Secure or a BS EN 12320 grade. None of these eight listings print that mark. A copied key also opens the whole suite, and a copied key may not look like forced entry on a claim.
