You would have thought I would have noticed the door open a little when I was making marks. I was too focused on trying to keep the shot in the frame. LoL
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks pal, very helpful. I'm about to put together my first shed and need it to be secure.
could this be done the same way on a cargo van side doors? if not how would you install something like this on a VaN? anyone have ideas please let me know!!
You could absolutely use rivets and a similar hasp to secure the cargo door. Does the door still latch though? Because it surely won't hold the door shut tight. If you need something to hold the door shut tight is there a way you could rig a ratchet strap on the inside to keep it shut? If the door will latch tight but don't lock this would be an easy ideal fix with the hasp and rivets. Just use steel rivets instead of aluminum ones like I did. They only take moments to drill out where steel takes a lot more work.
Great video. Thank you. I plan to install a hasp on one of my metal cabinets soon and your video was helpful.
This is a flimsy door but even on thicker, more secure doors where you may potentially want bolts running through it, rivets seem kind of strange instead of screws with nuts on the end. A hasp covers the screws and if the screws are accessible than it's already been compromised.
Regardless it would be easy to crow-bar through this getup, I'd want in this instance perhaps a bar running across both doors entirely, maybe with additional security points.
Honestly, if someone wants something out of the shed it would take the least amount of time to just smash in a panel so you can get behind the others and just yank the walls entirely out. Flimsy is even too good of a word to describe these cheap things. I used rivets because I bought the rivet gun to actually repair one of the sheds which I just did in a recent video that I will link. I don't even think I had nuts and bolts the proper size and length for that application and if I did they certainly would not be flush mount heads. The hasp came with wood type screws. I just used what I had which in this case was rivets.

@@TheWatchmanNews I see. I used one of these recently and the included screws were half an inch long. Ridiculous on how much they want to screw you for the dollar these days, instead of providing you an assortment.
@@escapetherace1943 that reminds me of the 3/8 inch long scews they give you with a striker plate for a door knob. LoL
@@TheWatchmanNews lmao, wouildn't surprise me that's holding half the doorknobs and bolt locks together these days, even the plywood is probably particleboard with a veneer over it, we're close to that
@@escapetherace1943 its frustrating knowing todays technology and seeing how cheaply things are made. We have the materials and lubricants to make engines last a lifetime. Build cars that never rust and at the same time be biodegradable. It blows my mind at what we can do but big business wont let it happen.
Gracias por el video me sirvió mucho sir 👍🏻
Hold my beer and give me a can opener, that thin metal is a joke.
Pretty sure I said something similar in the video. The point of the video was not so much the shed but about securing them and using quality locks. You can have a pole barn but if it has a Master Lock on it your security is no more than mine.
@@TheWatchmanNews We use big dogs :P BIIIIIG dogs LOL
@@attiladavid4541 right on. We only have one medium size dog and security cameras but I have 45 other reasons not to worry. LoL
@@TheWatchmanNews 45 reasons is wery good, unforutnatly here we are not aloud to have ewen 22 resons :(
