Oxford Products has unleashed the Beast – a new lock and chain combination that the maker describes as “too big to fail”. Around the same size as a pint glass, the Beast lock has a 30mm locking pin and is made from surface-hardened steel. The Beast chain is made from black-painted 22mm steel links and is said to be resistant to angle-grinder attacks. With the lock weighing in at 3.6kg and the chain up to 15.5kg, it isn’t a tremendously portable security solution. Together they weigh the same as an average five year old, so far too weighty for a top boxt. Fortunately, Oxford has a suitably gargantuan ground anchor in development which means the whole lot can be used for security at home.
The lock has an SRP of £149.99, the chain is £149.99 for the 1.5m or £214.99 for the 2m, and the coming-soon Beast anchor will be £99.99.
