Small Padlock Needed

Can anyone recommend me to a very small padlock with higher security, A step up from the small brass and black plastic master locks you can find.
Ive seen the small Abloy PL 321 and Assa Desmo Mini locks from Security Snobs but these all this use a standard diameter plug, I was hoping for something smaller.

Thanks

The ABUS 75IB/30 may be worth a look. It is a 5 pin dimple lock with a very small keyway.

How small exactly are you looking for?

Funny seeing this topic, someone asked me that same question friday at work. He wanted one for his game camera.

Kaba Micro. Don't know if they still make the padlocks, though.

The Desmo is awesome, unless the TSA chop the shackle off it. Shackle is wimpy.

AFAIK the Desmo padlock is meant more as a tamper indicative seal than a hard-to-penetrate barrier. Serial number on body so you can tell if someone replaced it etc.

I have no definitive measurements, just smaller, the 2 mentioned locks are almost 2 cm in depth and I was hoping for one thinner mostly.

If you want something high security smaller than 2 cm you may need a good tamper evident seal.

Cheers :)
