yuntop 2Pcs Stainless Steel Gate Lock Hasp, Safety Packlock Clasp Lock Set for Doors, Cabinets, Closets and More

Why I picked up this hasp set

I needed a compact, corrosion‑resistant latch for two projects: securing a small garden gate and adding a lock point to a storage chest. The yuntop hasp set caught my eye because it’s stainless, low‑profile, and comes as a two‑pack. On paper, it’s a straightforward proposition: a 3-inch class hasp and staple, polished finish, rounded edges, and screws included. After installing and using both, I’ve got a good sense of where this set shines and where you’ll want to plan around its limitations.

Build and finish

Each hasp measures roughly 3.2 by 1.5 inches, putting it on the smaller side. That size is ideal for cabinets, boxes, interior doors, and lighter gates; you’ll want something larger for wide exterior gates or high‑security applications. The plates and hinge leaves are made from 304 stainless steel. The finish is bright and neatly polished, and the edges are deburred—nothing sharp to snag fingers or clothing. The overall look is clean and modern, and the low-profile hardware blends nicely on painted wood and stainless‑adjacent trim.

In hand, the hasps feel solid for their size. The hinge action is smooth without being loose, and the staple ring is stout enough to inspire confidence for everyday security. That said, this is medium‑duty hardware: think “keep it shut and deter casual tampering,” not “withstand a pry bar.” The gauge is appropriate for the footprint, and the reinforcement around the staple cutout adds a bit of stiffness where it matters.

On one of my two staples, the loop was very slightly out of round. It didn’t affect function and still accepted a padlock shackle easily, but it’s a small reminder that this isn’t premium architectural hardware. Fit and finish overall, though, are good for the class.

Installation experience

Installation is simple, which is part of the appeal. I set one hasp on a cedar garden gate and the other on a pine storage chest. Here’s what I found helpful:

• Mark the closed position first. Close the hasp over the staple ring and mark both plates while it’s “latched.” This avoids misalignment that can cause binding.
• Predrill pilot holes. The screws are small-gauge; pilot holes prevent splitting on softer woods and keep the screws tracking straight.
• Consider screw upgrades. The included screws are serviceable for softwood and interior use, but they’re short. For exterior gates or anything subject to force, I prefer longer exterior-grade stainless screws for better bite. On thin sheet metal, skip the included wood screws and use sheet‑metal screws or bolts with lock nuts and washers.

Both installs took under 10 minutes each, including measuring and piloting. The countersunk screw holes seat well, and the hardware sits flush with no rocking.

Day‑to‑day use

On the garden gate, the hasp sees daily opening and closing. The hinge action has stayed smooth, and there’s minimal rattle thanks to the snug fit between the hasp slot and staple. On the storage chest, the latch has been a nice upgrade: it keeps the lid closed even without a lock, and adding a small padlock is quick when I want it secured.

The ring accommodates most small‑to‑medium padlocks. I tested with a 1/4-inch shackle brass padlock and a slightly beefier 5/16-inch stainless shackle; both fit. If you rely on a large, security‑grade lock with a thick shackle, check the inner diameter of the staple ring you plan to use. For most household locks, clearance is adequate.

One practical note: because the hasp is compact, there’s less leverage to resist a determined pry compared to a 4–6 inch hasp. If you’re putting this on something that invites force (garage side doors, large outdoor sheds), consider stepping up to a longer, heavier hasp or pairing this with additional security measures.

Durability and corrosion resistance

I installed one set outdoors in a wet coastal climate. After several weeks of rain and morning marine layer, the stainless plates and hinge have remained bright with no visible red rust. That’s consistent with 304 stainless in typical exterior exposure.

The included screws are where durability diverges. On my gate, the screw heads showed faint discoloration sooner than the hasp plates. They didn’t bloom into full rust streaks, but I swapped them for longer 304 stainless screws to be safe. If you’re installing outdoors, I recommend using your own fasteners—either stainless or coated exterior screws—especially if you need more length for holding power in softwood.

A light seasonal wash and a wipe of silicone or dry lube on the hinge will keep it moving smoothly. So far, the hinge hasn’t loosened or developed slop with daily use.

Security perspective

This set provides practical, everyday security for low‑risk scenarios: keeping curious hands out of a cabinet, locking a storage chest, adding a secondary latch to a utility closet, or securing a garden gate against casual entry. It’s a deterrent and a dependable closure point, not a high‑security fixture. If forced entry is a realistic concern, strengthen the substrate first (solid framing, blocking behind thin panels) and upgrade to a heavier hasp with concealed screws or a shrouded design.

I like that the rounded staple ring reduces abrasion on lock shackles and resists pinching. The hasp plate’s reinforced cutout also helps resist deformation under normal use.

Sizing and fit considerations

A 3‑inch class hasp is versatile, but there are trade‑offs:

• Space: It fits compact surfaces and narrow rails where larger hasps look oversized or don’t have enough real estate for all screws.
• Pull resistance: Less length means less material and fewer fasteners to distribute load. Use longer screws and solid backing where possible.
• Padlock clearance: Works well with common 1/4–5/16 inch shackles. Oversized or shrouded padlocks may not fit.

Measure twice, mock in place with the hasp closed, and check that your lock can hang and articulate without hitting trim or molding.

Where it makes sense

• Indoor cabinets, closets, tool chests, and storage boxes
• Small to medium garden gates and shed doors (especially with upgraded screws)
• Temporary or secondary security points where low profile matters

Where I’d look elsewhere: wide exterior gates under frequent stress, high‑traffic doors that see impact, or any situation where you need concealed or heavy‑duty hardware.

Quibbles

• The included screws are short and, in my case, not as corrosion‑resistant as the hasp itself. Plan on upgrading for outdoor use or where strength matters.
• One staple loop was slightly out of round. It didn’t affect function, but quality control isn’t perfect.
• It’s not “heavy‑duty” despite the stainless construction. That’s fine for the size class, but worth stating plainly.

Value

As a two‑pack of stainless hasps that install quickly and look tidy, this is good value. You get compact, rust‑resistant hardware that covers a lot of everyday locking needs without shouting for attention. Budget a few dollars for better fasteners if you’re installing outside or into hardwoods.

Recommendation

I recommend the yuntop hasp set for light‑to‑medium duty use where a compact, stainless solution is the right fit. It installs quickly, looks clean, and has held up well on my projects. Just match it to the right application—cabinets, chests, small gates—and plan to use longer, exterior‑grade screws if strength and weather resistance are priorities. If you need a high‑security hasp or something for large exterior doors that take abuse, step up in size and heft. For everyday locking tasks, this set is an easy, dependable pick.
