Hi, I’ve been enjoying experimenting with a CB6000S cage that I bought from here. I love everything about it except the padlock, which is uncomfortable and makes a bit of noise sometimes. I know it came with some plastic locks, but does anybody know of a better padlock? Maybe slightly smaller, plastic coated, or with rounder edges. I’ve searched Amazon. Screwfix, etc, but no joy.
Small plastic zip ties are good, but it takes away the keyholder dynamic.
Anybody had a similar experience and found a solution.
Other option is to use an elastic band around the lock to stop it moving
But sadly, that’s a feature of ant cage with an external padlock like that. It’s appealing to some girls to see a physical lock on the outside, or you can shop around for internal lock cages
Only really had the clinking with boxers when I had a cage with padlock.
Have recently bought something that has a barrel lock so no padlock to rattle around.
The barrel locks are good but the barrel insert is not well finished and can rub holes in clothing. I took a small file to mine and rounded off all the sharp corners and edges.
I had a similar experience, I actually picked up a small rubber coated padlock whilst at B&Q, the brand is ‘Master’ so think thats the same as what my CB Mr Stubb came with…just with a bit more sound supression
