QBXMY7 1 Set Stainless Steel Padlock Lock, Door Lock Lock, Padlock Latch Heavy Duty Buckle Latch with Lock Key for Cabinet Closet Door Latch Buckle, 5 Inch

Why I tried this hasp-and-lock set

I needed a quick, clean way to secure a shed door and a utility cabinet without hunting for separate parts. A hasp that ships with its own padlock and mounting screws is appealing for that reason alone. I picked up the QBXMY7 5-inch hasp and padlock set to see if an all-in-one kit could be both convenient and dependable.

Build and materials

Out of the box, the hardware looks tidy. The stainless steel hasp has a polished finish with rounded edges and no burrs, so it doesn’t snag gloves or clothing. The hinge is tight with minimal play, and the staple (the loop the lock goes through) seats squarely when the hasp is closed.

“Stainless” is a broad term, but this reads as a mid-grade stainless typical of general hardware. It resists fingerprints and light corrosion, but it isn’t a heavy, marine-grade alloy. The included screws are also stainless, matching the finish. The hasp plate is not flimsy; it’s a reasonable thickness for a 5-inch unit. I can flex it a bit if I really lean on it in a bench vise, but installed flat and supported by decent screws, it feels solid for light-to-medium-duty jobs.

The padlock is a compact, general-purpose lock with a standard-size shackle. It’s keyed, and mine arrived with multiple keys. Operation is smooth out of the package, and the shackle springs open cleanly.

Installation: fast and forgiving

The countersunk and symmetrical screw holes make alignment straightforward. Here’s how I installed it on wood:

• Mark the hasp position closed, not open. Close the hasp onto the staple, hold everything aligned, then mark holes.
• Pre-drill pilot holes (1/16–3/32 inch for the included screws in typical softwood) to avoid splitting and to keep the countersinks tight to the surface.
• If your door or frame is thin, use through-bolts with washers rather than short screws to prevent tear-out.
• On metal doors, self-tapping screws or rivets give better bite; consider a backing plate behind the staple for extra rigidity.

The design allows you to hide most of the hasp screws when the lock is in place, which is good practice. Depending on your door geometry, you can mount it with the hardware showing or tucked so the screw heads are concealed under the closing plate. I ended up with the screws exposed on the shed to get the reach I needed; on the cabinet, I used the hidden-screw orientation, which is more tamper-resistant.

The 5-inch length fits small cabinet doors and narrow stiles nicely. On the shed, I did wish for an extra half inch of throw to reach further across a misaligned gap, but with a slight reposition it worked.

Total install time per location was under 15 minutes with a drill/driver.

Day-to-day use and security

For everyday deterrence—keeping a shed door shut, preventing casual rummaging in a closet, securing a toolbox—the set does its job without fuss. The hasp closes easily, the holes line up consistently, and the lock engages without fiddling.

Security-wise, this is not a high-security solution. A few considerations:

• Hasp thickness and screws: The hasp is sturdy for its class, but like most 5-inch hasps, its ultimate strength depends on the fasteners and the substrate. Upgrading the included screws to longer stainless or security torx, and using all available holes, meaningfully ups the resistance to prying.
• Padlock: The included lock is fine for low-risk settings. For higher deterrence, swap to a shrouded or closed-shackle padlock with a hardened shackle, and consider a lock that resists shimming and has a double-bolted shackle.
• Mounting surface: No hasp outperforms rotten wood or thin sheet metal. Backer plates and through-bolting in weak materials make a big difference.

In short, it’s a practical, modest-security setup that can be improved with better fasteners and a lock upgrade if the risk profile warrants it.

Outdoor performance

I installed one set on a backyard shed that sees rain and direct sun. After a stretch of wet weather, the stainless hardware still looked presentable, though I noticed the earliest signs of tea-staining at edges—common for standard stainless outdoors. The padlock continued to operate smoothly, but I hit it with a spritz of silicone-based lubricant and a wipe of corrosion inhibitor as a preventative.

If you’re near salt air or expect constant exposure, I’d apply a thin coat of wax or a corrosion protectant to the hasp and use a weatherproof padlock. For coastal or marine use, a 316-grade stainless set would be more appropriate, but for typical backyard conditions, this set holds up adequately with basic care.

Ergonomics and fit

• The hinge swings freely without wobble, so it lines up reliably even if the door has slight play.
• The staple has enough clearance for most small-to-medium padlocks, though bulkier shrouded locks may not fit; check your lock’s shackle geometry if you plan to upgrade.
• The low-profile finish is a plus on cabinets and interior doors where you don’t want snag points.

I appreciated that the plates sit flush thanks to the countersunk screws; it looks cleaner and snags less along the edge of the door.

What I’d change or watch for

• Length options: A 6-inch version would cover more use cases where you need to reach over a wider reveal or misalignment.
• Screws: The included screws are fine for convenience, but they’re on the short side for exterior doors. I recommend swapping to longer stainless or using security-head screws for better pullout resistance.
• Padlock tier: The bundled lock is a convenience lock. I’d like to see a slightly beefier option in the kit, but since locks are so scenario-specific, the included one is acceptable as a starter.

Practical tips for a stronger installation

• Use every screw hole. Skipping holes makes prying easier.
• Mount so screws are covered when locked. That prevents easy removal by anyone with a driver.
• Add a backer plate or large fender washers on thin doors.
• Lube the lock annually and after heavy rain; a dry Teflon or silicone lube works well.
• If you need more reach, flip orientations or shift the staple to the frame and hasp to the door—small changes often solve fit issues.

Value

As an all-in-one package, the QBXMY7 hasp and padlock set offers good convenience. You get the hasp, staple, stainless screws, and a working padlock with multiple keys. For a small shop, classroom closet, garden gate, or shed, that’s everything you need in one box, and it installs quickly. If you were piecing together higher-security components individually, you could easily spend more and spend time on compatibility. Here, the components match and look cohesive.

The trade-off is that you’re getting general-purpose security, not hardened, professional-grade hardware. For many users, that’s a fair exchange.

Recommendation

I recommend this set for light to medium-duty applications where you value convenience, clean looks, and quick installation: sheds, utility closets, storage boxes, interior doors, and garden gates. It’s a straightforward way to add a deterrent and keep doors reliably latched. If you need more serious security or live in a harsh coastal environment, plan on two upgrades: use longer or security-head fasteners and swap the included padlock for a weather-resistant, higher-security model. With those tweaks, this compact 5-inch set becomes a dependable everyday workhorse at a sensible price.
