TonGass (4-Pack, Black Garbage Trash Can Lid Lock with Wire Ropes and Stainless Steel Hasps, Universal Trash Can Locks for Various Bins, Garbage Bins Locks for Animals, Bear and Squirrel Proof

This is a very high quality product. Easy to install, effective at keeping pests (including the bear kind) out of garbage can and looks professionally installed. I augmented the kit with aluminum plates on the inside of the garbage can, mounting the outside plates to them sandwiching the garbage can plastic between the supplied plate with loop and my homemade inner plate to prevent the plastic from tearing if force is applied to the cables. Highly recommended. I will purchase again.

I bought this item for my four commercial trash cans I bought. I only use one string for each trash can. I put it in the middle on the trash can. It is super easy to install. So far it does it’s purpose. Keeps the trash can close until we have to open them to throw garbage. The strings are very strong and durable. I recommend

Easy to install and has kept the bear out of our trash cans. Have held up so far.

The media could not be loaded. UPDATE 8-22-24This kit is even worse than I thought. Last night a bear ripped the cable open. See the video and pic.Bought this kit based on reviews but now I’m having my doubts about how real they are. Maybe the manufacturer changed something? Idk.I’ve been in construction for over 30 yrs and I expected this to be as straight forward as it looks. Unfortunately, the screws they sent are larger than the holes in the hasp and they do not sit flush in the countersink of the pre-drilled holes. (See Pics)This is extremely dangerous because the average customer is gonna do one of two things 1. Return it… which is probably best. 2. Attempt to drill the holes out bigger.That’s where it becomes very dangerous because as soon as the drill bit grabs, the hasp will start to soon unless you have it in a vice or secured another way. Holding the hasp in hand while you drill it could send you to the ER real quick.Because I expected this to be a straight forward install, I went outside before bed, thinking this would be a 20-30 min install. Once I realized the hardware issue, I now have holes in my garbage can and the previous brackets removed. Oh… did I mention it’s bear season here? Yeah.. so, I had to finish the install with the wrong bolts.Two other things that is not great with this kit is1. The nuts are not a nylon style, locking nut. As the garbage truck picks the can up a few dozen times, the nuts tend to get loose. I know because my last make shift set up from the previous homeowner did the same thing.2. The carabiner clips are a total joke. They are something you might see attached to your child’s play purse or teddy bear.This was not the cheapest of similar options I found while searching through Amazon. So, I expected it to be what the listing implies.I will later add some blue loctite to the nuts and get new carabiner clips.

Very sturdy ease fit and usable ok price

Great protection against bears and raccoons.

Seems like a solid product. Good amount of hardware options. I went w nuts and bolts as felt more secure. Eyeballed it w measurement and was easy enough. I suggest fixing end without carabiner first then placing other end by hand and simulating unhooking to be sure can do it. Allow a little slack and will still lock. I also trimmed excess bolt of so wouldn't rip bags. Seem like Yogi will be locked outta my trash for good now.

I had an annoying bear getting into my garbage. I installed these with some large fender washers (not supplied) to keep the bolts from ripping through. I also added larger carabiners. But they work! Take that bear!!!
