Buying advice

When choosing a hitch lock, consider the receiver size (usually 1/2" or 5/8"), material (hardened steel or stainless steel for rust resistance), and lock core type (disc-detainer for higher security). Ensure the lock fits snugly to prevent rattling and deters theft. For frequent use, opt for models with weather-resistant covers or stainless steel construction.
