Squire combination padlock with a standard 20mm shackle, built to secure lockers, cabinets, bags, and other close-fitting points without relying on a physical key. The die cast alloy body and dual compound cover are designed to withstand everyday wear, while the fully recodable 4 wheel mechanism gives 10,000 possible combinations for personalised, keyless security. Backed by a 10 year guarantee.
How a compact standard shackle suits lockers and cabinets
A long shackle padlock can be unnecessarily bulky on a locker, cabinet, or bag where the fixing point only needs a short, close shackle to pass through. An oversized shackle on a small fixing point takes up more space than needed and can catch or snag during regular use. This padlock's compact 20mm standard shackle fits neatly through lockers, cabinets, and similar hasps, while still offering the same fully recodable combination security as the long shackle version.

Who is this for
This padlock suits facilities managers, depot supervisors, and warehouse operatives securing lockers, cabinets, toolboxes, and similar close-fitting points where a standard shackle is sufficient. It is intended for indoor and outdoor use wherever keyless, recodable access is preferred over managing physical keys across a site or team.
Typical applications
-
Securing staff lockers, gym lockers, and personal storage units.
-
Locking cabinets, cupboards, and smaller storage points at a depot or facility.
-
Securing toolboxes and equipment cases where a compact shackle fits the hasp.
-
Providing keyless, recodable access for shared or rotating storage points.
-
Locking bags and cases where a bulkier long shackle padlock is not needed.
How to use
Step 1: Set your chosen 4 digit combination using the recodable mechanism before first use, following the padlock's reset instructions.
Step 2: Align all 4 wheels to the correct combination to release the shackle.
Step 3: Fit the shackle through the locker, cabinet, or hasp and press down to engage the double locking mechanism.
Step 4: Scramble the wheels away from the set combination once locked, to prevent the code being read at a glance.
Step 5: Recode the combination periodically or whenever site personnel change, to maintain controlled access.
Common mistakes
-
Leaving the wheels set to the correct combination after locking, making the code easy to read by anyone nearby.
-
Assuming Security Rating 4 is suitable for high value or insurance critical applications without checking the specific requirement first.
-
Trying to fit this padlock to a gate, chain, or hasp needing more shackle clearance than the standard 20mm allows, rather than choosing the long shackle version.
-
Forgetting to recode the combination after a team member with knowledge of the code leaves the site or project.
-
Forcing the shackle into a hasp it is not sized for, rather than confirming clearance before fitting.
Safety
This padlock carries a Squire Security Rating of 4 out of 10, suited to general locker, cabinet, and personal storage security rather than high value or insurance critical applications. Where a specific insurance or contractual security rating is required, confirm the padlock meets that rating before relying on it.
Maintenance
Wipe the body and shackle clean of dirt and grit periodically to keep the mechanism operating smoothly. Avoid forcing the combination wheels if they feel stiff, and check the shackle for corrosion or wear over time, particularly in exposed outdoor locations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many combinations does this padlock actually offer?
A: The padlock offers 10,000 possible combinations through its 4 wheel mechanism, and it is fully recodable, so the combination can be changed at any time without needing to replace the padlock. This makes it suited to sites or teams that want to update access periodically without managing physical keys.
Q: What does a Squire Security Rating of 4 actually mean?
A: Squire rates its padlocks on a 1 to 10 scale, with higher numbers indicating greater resistance to forced or manipulated entry. A rating of 4 sits in the mid range of Squire's own scale, suited to general locker, cabinet, and personal storage security rather than the highest value or highest risk applications, which typically call for a higher rated Squire product.
Q: What is this padlock NOT suitable for?
A: This padlock is not intended for high value or insurance critical applications requiring a top tier security rating, since its Squire Security Rating of 4 sits in the mid range of Squire's scale. It is also not suited to gates, containers, or fixing points needing more shackle clearance than its 20mm standard shackle allows, where the long shackle version is the better fit.
Q: Why choose the standard shackle version over the long shackle CP40?
A: The standard shackle gives a compact 20mm clearance, ideal for lockers, cabinets, and bags where a bulkier shackle isn't needed. The long shackle version provides 63mm clearance for gates, containers, and thicker chains. Both share the same combination mechanism, body construction, and security rating, so the choice comes down to the fixing point being secured.
Q: Can I change the combination myself once it's in use?
A: Yes, the padlock is fully recodable, allowing the combination to be reset by the user rather than fixed at the factory. This is useful for shared storage points or teams where access needs to be updated periodically, such as when personnel change or lockers are reassigned.
Q: How long will this padlock last with regular use?
A: The die cast alloy body and dual compound cover are built to withstand everyday wear indoors and outdoors, and the padlock is backed by a 10 year guarantee reflecting its expected working life under normal use. Wiping the body and shackle clean periodically helps maintain performance over time.
