Avocet ABS ABS High Security Padlock - Type G 61mm Closed Shackle – High Security

The ABS Type G Closed Shackle High Security Padlock is designed for high-risk commercial and industrial environments where enhanced anti-cut and anti-leverage protection is essential.

Featuring a reinforced closed shackle design, hardened steel body and molybdenum alloy steel shackle, this professional-grade high security padlock significantly reduces shackle exposure — making it far more resistant to bolt cropper and pry bar attacks than standard padlocks.

If you require maximum physical protection for shutters, gates, containers or perimeter security, the Type G closed shackle model delivers serious defence.

Supplied as standard with an ABS half cylinder, 3 keys and security key card.

Closed Shackle Design – Reduced Exposure, Increased Security

Unlike conventional padlocks, the closed shackle construction shields the majority of the shackle within the lock body. This:

• Minimises access for bolt croppers

• Reduces leverage attack points

• Increases resistance against twisting and pulling

• Provides enhanced protection in high-risk areas

Combined with an 11mm hardened molybdenum alloy steel shackle, the Type G offers exceptional resistance against cutting and forced entry.

Heavy-Duty Hardened Construction

The ABS Type G high security padlock includes:

• 🔒 Hardened solid steel body with durable black protective coating

• 🛡️ Hardened molybdenum alloy steel shackle (11mm diameter)

• ⚙️ Ball locking double shackle system

• 🔐 Drill, pick and bump resistant when used with ABS Ultimate or ABS Design cylinders

• 🌧️ Stainless steel cylinder shutter to protect against dirt and contamination

• 🔑 Key retained when open for safer operation

This combination makes it ideal for exposed, high-use and high-value applications.

Euro Cylinder Compatibility & Keying Options

The Type G closed shackle padlock is compatible with ABS high security euro cylinders and can be:

• Supplied with ABS patented high security cylinder

• Supplied without cylinder

• Keyed alike

• Keyed to differ

• Integrated into a master key system

This allows it to form part of a scalable commercial key control system.

Ideal Applications

The ABS Type G Closed Shackle high security padlock is particularly suited to:

• Roller shutters

• Commercial gates

• Storage containers

• Industrial units

• Utility access points

Where shackle attack risk is high, a closed shackle design provides a significant security advantage.

If your application is vulnerable to bolt cropper attacks, upgrading to a closed shackle high security padlock dramatically reduces exposed cutting points.

The ABS Type G delivers:
