I had the Level 9 ones cut off with bolt cutters. They need to be longer to allow them to fit though the arm holes on the container. Anyone have a good one they can recommend? Amazon has basicly what HD and Lows have.

Not cheap, but far better than you'll get at a box store. Ours use the half moon keys, no experience with the combo style. https://www.abloy.com/au/en If at first you dont succeed, then skydiving is not for you..

One of those circular type saws? None are foolproof. They are just a deterrent to keep people honest and force a thief to move on to an easier target. As I have said numerous times before, build your security in layers. If a thief wants in then they will get in. Most "padlocks" are garbage and are easily breached.

Ours was broken into and the lock was still attached. I ended up welding a cross bar of sorts out of pipe and heavy angle iron. I'm sure they can still get into it, but hopefully I slowed them down a bit.

Good reviews and videos on YouTube of guys trying to break into them. Any lock should not be your only defense. Security is multi layered. Home Depot Locks are a very weak layer. Small, handled bolt cutters lopped them in half in about 2 seconds.
