Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Should the staple go on the door or the door frame?
  The staple should be fixed to the door frame, while the hasp attaches to the door itself. If you are securing a pair of double doors, one door takes the hasp, and the other takes the staple.

• What is a wire hasp and staple?
  A wire hasp and staple is a type of door fastening where the hasp features a formed wire loop rather than a flat plate staple. The hinged hasp swings over the wire loop, and a padlock passes through to hold it shut.

• Are hasp and staple sets secure enough for outdoor use?
  Hasp and staple sets offer medium to light-duty security and work well as a deterrent on sheds, gates, and outbuildings. The level of security depends on the quality of the fixings used and the padlock chosen. Through-bolts rather than screws offer stronger resistance to forced entry.

• What size padlock do I need for a hasp and staple?
  The padlock shackle must fit through the aperture of the staple. Check the internal diameter of the staple loop before purchasing a padlock to confirm the shackle will pass through. A closed-shackle padlock offers greater resistance to cutting than an open-shackle type.

• Can a hasp and staple be used on double doors?
  Yes. When fitted to a pair of double doors, the hasp attaches to one door and the staple to the other. Closing both doors brings the two parts together, so a padlock can be used to hold them shut.
