Product review (5 stars): TERRIBLE LOSS WHEN FREEZER WAS LEFT OPEN AND DEFROSTED:(
I bought this lock to protect our large quantities of beef and pork, frozen summer squash, beans, peaches, and the like which I store in my deep freeze.  If you are an avid gardener who likes to put up items for winter use, or you purchase your beef and pork once a year, you will find this item to be an extra sense of security.  Recently, my freezer was left open with devastating results.  I had just finished stocking it for winter, and lost half of the items when I discovered the freezer had been left open for a long period of time.  After installing the item I used a hinge pin to drop down through the loop instead of the lock.  I gave a heavy lecture on if I found the pin missing to all who needed to hear.  I am monitoring the situation, and if the lock needs to be used in the future I have it on stand by.  It was super easy to install, and the lock is very nice quality.  I will recommend to others who have a stand up freezer as they seem to be more susceptible to this type of situation.
