What kind of lock on the coop door?

[hayley3]

I also use a hasp but use a double ended bolt snap to lock it. Worked for 13 yrs.

Oh I forgot, I also had the slider latch on it but I think the hasp with snap was really all I needed.

What do y'all think. Is this enough? If not, can you insert a picture of one that would work?

It would work if you have a locking pin to put thru the hole.
But there are better choices.
I use caribineers on several different loop latches.

I can never find single end at my store which are less expensive, I bet.

Mine were from other applications....some came from an old vans cargo netting.

You've never had a problem with these? Do you know if a raccoon has tried them? Seems like they could figure that one out.

I use these:

One way to stop 4 legged thief’s is a simple hasp ( installed correctly) and a lockable D-ring. See pictures. The D-ring has threads to make sure it stays closed. This won’t stop a 2 leg thief with a crow bar, but hard to stop a 2 legged thief at all..

I like the snap bolts because you can open with one hand.

Haha didn’t see your post .. that’s what I seen a lot of people use, I sure a really determined raccoon could figure it out, but depending on where it is at, high enough off the ground he has to hang on with the hands, I don’t see them getting it open with one hand.

Another option add the D-ring from above
