We use Abus commercial padlocks on our Unit ( known for their quality and strength and de-rigor for motorbike security )
Can't remember the brand of mine.
I basically went into a local locksmith and asked his advice for the best for the job it was doing.
We use coded keys... I don't want someone I think I can trust wandering into a Timpsons and come out with a personal key
Squire all the way no reason not to support British businesses.
My advice from previously working in a business selling top-end Chubb, Era, etc padlocks by the dozen daily is;
Always get spare keys cut when you buy the padlock
If what you are locking, maybe vital for you to gain access, also purchase a heavy duty 'bolt-cutter /cropper', as would be thieves are likely to apply super glue, etc to your padlock rendering it 'unopenable'
The Chubb 1k57 Hercules padlock was a popular 'top padlock'
If what you locking is really important, think about reinforcing the door e.g. steel plates, use hinge bolts e.g stops lifting, re-inforce the frame e.g suppress sledge hammer attacks
Tip- Cordless tools are great e.g circular saw & angle grinder <<<be mindful
