Having decided to buy a hitchlock and padlock/chain for trailer, I'm just looking at Towsure and wondering which chain and how much to order? Do you think 2m of this one would be ok?

It's for maybe chaining it to the car if parked overnight somewhere or more likely for chaining to a tree etc if on site.

Thanks,

Nicola

It depends on how far your trailer will be from the tree and how big the tree is!

I uses to use a chain/padlock for my generator but found it heavy and difficult to manage.I bought a 4.5m (I think - def longer than 4m)  soft bodied cable with a masterlock lock from

www.smartoutdoors.biz     and it's great, easy to put on and the bright yellow lock is very visible. They call it a vanlock, to keep motorhome doors secure.My friend's hubby uses a shorter version for his motorbike.
