Do you HAVE to use the lock at all times to secure a can in this carrier?

the gas cans will fit a little tight in the summer when the fumes expands the cans .I use a lock to secure it but I am sure you can find some kind of clip at the hard ware store it just has to fit through the L shaped part of the handle through the carrier to secure it .I find them easy to use and no more stolen gas or having to load the cans every morning.

The pin and lock is designed to secure the can. Without some sort of locking mechanism the can would not be secured.

No, you can just go to the hardware store and get a snap like on the end of a dog leash. There are several other options that will work and dont require using the lock.

Not really locked, it's more of a detent. It works well either angled or straight.

No i always lock mine. I think it tells you to do that in the instructions.

No. there is a button that you can hold and open it all the way. or you can push it a little and then the locking pin will fall into the next hole. I like how it's designed, I actually bought a second one from my brother.

Thank you for your question. It does lock out when fully extended. However, it does not lock in when closed - it is nice and tight.

Possibly with a little practice. The only obstacle i see is trying to put the can under the bar and pushing down on the lever in one motion. After the lever is pushed down it locks the can in place during the opening proccess and keeps it there after it's open and until the lever is pulled up and the lock is released, at that point the can will fall out but, still sealed until you stick your finger nail in the crease to pull the lid off.

Yes. This mailbox locks. It has a flap top with a key under the top that you see. You can choose to lock it or not. I only lock mine if I go out of town. This mailbox is big and holds small packages as well.

Just saw Caesar's answer..I bought this for my son and he has never had it lock. Back when out..something he told me he wished it did. 5hat was the basis of my original answer

I never locked mine. Just put a couple of velcro straps. The case worked well, and closing with velcro worked well for TSA inspection. Protected clubs fine. OK for the price.

It stays open even if you don't open it all the way. You cannot however lock it into the open position.

No. This is a waste of money. The photo looks as if it is a door. It Is NOT. It is two separate mesh like screen. There is no latch. There are plastic pieces that fit into the sides of the mesh. The two mesh/screen are attached. I just stand them in the doorway and place a weight or tape to keep it closed. It will a non-aggressive OUT, I don't think it is tough enough to keep a non-aggressive can IN.

No, there is no lock. I purchased this and it is of high quality - we love it.

Mine is suppose to lock but does not. Do not buy if you are looking for security.

We have this can, and *most* of the time it keeps him out (a mini-Aussie). However, even when it stays shut, he has managed to remove the bag (leaving the trash inside the can). He sometimes gets it open by pulling up on the back of the can. I've come downstairs to find he popped the back off with the lock still in place.Of course, it depends on what is in the can as to how determined he is to get into it.

No, and when you lock it the combination scrambles. It's a great lock for the price.

I didn't use it as intended, but I believe it just twists on and locks with the proper can.

No - it is amazingly secure with no movement once tightened. I use it everyday with no issues.
