Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have this, the brass version, and it's world-class for locking sheds and the like. Anyone who finds it too easy to change the combination neither read the instructions nor used common sense.
To change the combination, you must take a screw driver and loosen a tight set screw, then pull out and slide the unit. Then while it's in the slid over position, and with no reason to do it except to change the combination, one must turn one or more wheels. Does that make it sound impossible to go into change combination mode accidently? That's because it is. The reviewer who said his wife "accidently" changed the combination perhaps has issues with the woman that he's unaware of. It is impossible to change the combination without intending to.
And as others remind us, install these with your own No. 8 screws first to line everything up. Only after that should you make it a permanent installation with the one-way screws supplied. Once in, you will not get those screws out without drilling and an Easy Out. While one-way screw removers are available on Amazon, most user reports range from "doesn't work" to "didn't work" to the more forgiving "I couldn't make it work."
To make an even more secure attachment, use smooth head carriage bolts and nuts rather than screws. That has the added advantage of being able to get out of the shed if your wife locks you in. Accidently.
