Hi Dan; the Trimax Trailer Door Hasp for Puck Lock #TMX28ZR is designed to be installed on a flat surface but you could make it work with your ridge along the side of the door. A small piece of wood, plastic, or other material can be used to fill in…
Sorry Jim but your wife already got to us and I'm afraid you'll have to go on the all-beet diet! I kid, I kid. The Rack'em shelf kit #RA-13 is great for shelves but to make some bunk beds I recommend going with E-Track #E19146. This…
William, the Trimax Puck Lock #TMX96RR is keyed unique and can not be keyed alike, unfortunately. For a keyed alike padlock by the same company, you could use the Trimax Laminated Steel Padlocks #TMX33ZR which include 3 padlocks keyed alike, 2 keys,…
I definitely understand how safety chain capacities and determining exactly what chain rating you need for your trailer can be a bit confusing. To keep it as simple as possible, safety chain requirements state that the breaking strength of EACH…
Hello Mark, Happy to help you find the right weight distribution hitch to meet your needs. I don’t have a database that supplies specs for trailers (though it would be pretty sweet if one existed), so based on my research, the Rockwood Mini Lite…
Thanks for the link! I took a look and there's nothing that will work with your trailer's tongue. We're going to need to address your sagging issue by adding some suspension enhancement to your Silverado. If you could comment below on…
The ideal height will actually have to do with how tall the coupler of the trailer is from the ground. The Draw-Tite #76020 will sit at 13 1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the hitch when installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-9. From what I could find…
Hey Kan, there really is no difference between the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver #EH78VR and the Ecohitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver #306-X7273; the only really difference is that it was updated to fit the new frame on the 2018 Honda Fit.…

Universal Application Padlocks are perfect for securing a variety of items, from bike racks to trailers. They offer ease of use and reliable security, making them a great choice for enthusiasts who need a versatile locking solution.
These padlocks are generally durable, but some may experience rust after a year. It's important to consider the environment where the lock will be used and possibly opt for a rust-resistant model if exposure to the elements is a concern.
While these padlocks are versatile, not all models fit every hitch pin or bike rack. It's crucial to check the shackle size and compatibility with your specific equipment to ensure a proper fit.
Most of these padlocks open and close smoothly, providing a hassle-free experience. However, some might have a slide bolt that catches occasionally, so it's worth testing the mechanism before purchase if possible.
These padlocks are ideal for trailers due to their secure fit and ability to ensure a hitch coupler connection. They provide peace of mind when towing, knowing your trailer is securely locked.
While they are generally robust, exposure to harsh weather can lead to rusting. For long-term outdoor use, consider a padlock with weather-resistant features to maintain functionality and appearance.
