Do I need another piece of hardware to use this lock? Can this be used by itself on the back of a moving truck rental?

We installed several of these across the van doors (side and back and even our showroom back doors) after we suffered several break-ins. You will need to buy Master Lock shackles or brackets for these locks. They are bolted across the opening between the doors and this locks, this lock will then keep both doors together. Never had a problem with theft since then!

As far as I know this lock is specifically designed to be used in conjunction with the master lock locking system. I don't think it will work with anything else

You could probably put some basic locking hardware on it, but not anything like a deadbolt. At a minimum, you could run a large combination or bike lock through the handles.

Hi, Barbara! I used the lock on my truck (Ford F-150)and it worked well...The only problem was that the lock was extended to the maximum length & was easily broken or cut. But for a temporary lock, it would do ok, but for a more permanent solution, it would not be the optimal lock to get. Hope this helps & good luck. Yours, Rick Boswell

The lock can but not the key. You will have to place the key in the same place where other magnetic items go to pass through the system.

If some one really wanted to get it they could take it off. It would not be hard to drill a hole and use a bolt and lock though. I only install mine when needed. It is very nice to not have cargo moving everywhere.

We bought ours to replace locks on a camper we had just bought, so I paid attention to how they went on when I removed the old ones. They are pretty simple; I did a quick search on youtube and found this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0gmKu4ycdw Good luck!

Not a lock with a key. It has two spring loaded devices that lock the top down to the bed rails. I have a locking tailgate and when it's locked it's very sold and secure.

Nope...you don't need a key lock. I didn't have one. The way this works is a small steel bar moves under the tailgate handle when you lock the doors. The bar prevents the handle from being lifted up.

Yes little bit, I have two locks that hold gate to trailer. You only need one lock to hold it up but I just put two for safety.

No it is not designed for that. If you want a lock you will need to buy a piece of furniture with a lock built in.

I had to use master locks, small ones with the larger extended metal piece on top. They are still a tight fit. Might be your best bet to go with a cable lock of some kind.

I'm not sure what your brakes look like, but I am pretty sure you can find a way. The reality is, you just need to add it as a deterrent so they move to the bike without a lock. Anywhere you place, it will make the Nike harder to move. If they "really" want your bike, there's no wheel lock that will stop them from picking it up and putting it on the back of a truck. Right?

Won't work unless you build out a "L" type of piece in the back and attach the item there. Still may be an issue. You can use a standard Key lock for that from the hardware store that has a turning radius with a locking mechanism.

We bought a ( two actually) long strong cable combination lock and run it through the pair of grippers, since we have two on each side of our truck. this probably wouldn't deter a very determined thief, but we feel better having them locked up.

Try searching for a 'trailer hitch lock' you should find what will work for your needs.

You can only lock it from the outside with the key, but that defeats the purpose of the digital lock doesn't it. You have to turn the lock before you go out, or open the door and turn it. I can only guess that there is alarm system involved here.

This is a entry door lock. I don't think it is designed for your application.
