This heavy-duty padlock codes to your vehicle's ignition key. Made of automotive-grade materials and nearly impossible to pick or bump, this corrosion-resistant lock helps keep your trailer and equipment safe and secure.

Note: BOLT locks permanently code to only 1 vehicle. They cannot be re-coded or re-keyed.
Are you tired of carrying a bulky ring of keys - for your hitch lock and coupler lock, your pickup cover or trailer door, and all the various padlocks securing your equipment? Tired of fumbling for the right key or having to replace a lost key?
BOLT (Breakthrough One-key Lock Technology) has solved that problem by designing a line of locks that can operate with a key you already have handy - your vehicle ignition key.
When you insert your own key into the cylinder, spring-loaded plate tumblers move up and down until they are matched exactly to that key. The first time the key is rotated, the cylinder is uniquely coded to that key. When the key is removed, the cylinder moves into the locked position. When the key is turned again, it will rotate to the unlocked position.
BOLT is particularly useful in commercial applications. Imagine being able to send a crew without having to sign out multiple keys for a work truck, trailer, hitch pins, and equipment locks. With BOLT, the vehicle key becomes a master key. It opens all those locks and you no longer have the hassle of getting to a work site only to find that you've brought the wrong keys.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the BOLT Covered Padlock with the two inch shackle for the Jeep Center Cut Keys. Now, this is a custom fit part, it is designed to fit the Jeep and Ram ProMaster vehicles that uses the center cut key design. Now, this is a heavy duty padlock which can serve multiple uses, you can secure equipment to a rack or a truck bed to prevent any theft, you could lock a bike to a bike rack, or even a bike rack to a car, and you can protect your camping gear when you're away from your camp. Basically, this lock will use your vehicle's ignition key, so you always have the right key with you, there's no extra keys that you have to carry. Basically, what you'll do is remove the sticker, insert your ignition key into the bolt cylinder, turn the key once, and then the lock is permanently coded to your key.
Now, one note I do wanna mention, the BOLT locks will permanently code to only one vehicle, they cannot be recoded or rekeyed. It does use a 6-plate tumbler sidebar to prevent any picking or bumping, and it is an automotive quality lock, which is durable and weatherproof, uses a cast iron cylinder to give you superior corrosion resistance, uses a stainless steel lock shutter to keep out dirt and moisture from the lock cylinder, and it gives you a nice, durable, easy grip hard rubber casing, which will protect the lock, and it has a nice attached hard rubber dust cover to protect your locks face. It is a chrome-plated hardened 5/16 of inch diameter steel shackle, and a crush resistant body shell to prevent theft, and the shackle does attach to the lock body with double ball-bearing locking mechanism, so it will lock automatically when the key is removed. A few specs on this, we mentioned it is a two inch shackle link, and that's gonna to be the measurement from the inside right here. So if we put a ruler on it, you'll get a two inch shackle length, and the width is gonna be right at one inch.
But that should do it for the review on this BOLT Covered Padlock with the two inch shackle for your Jeep Center Cut Key..

I still love the Bolt offerings. If you can see my 2023 review, you’ll note my concern that the padlocks can be a pain to close … it is what it is, not changing.

I have had these on my truck trailer hitch and the trailer ball lock and have had no issues. They have operated without issue. I do spray with silicone lubricant from time to time as a preventive measure.

I wanted to give a little heads up and let you know that what you want to use with the Bolt locks is a silicone spray, or a PTFE spray such as WD-40 Specialist dry lube. You do not want to use regular WD-40 as it will actually pull out all of the grease that is used within the lock core itself.
