Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 54 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers found the products to be unsatisfactory with terrible design and poor quality, leading to disappointment for some. People reported that the locks were easily bypassed, with some instances of security breaches occurring despite using the company's products. There were also concerns about advertising regarding the product's origin and security claims, with some feeling the company focused on other areas rather than product improvement. Some people were dissatisfied with the customer service, describing it as rude, unhelpful, and unprofessional, especially when issues arose with product fit or exchanges. However, some customers also noted that the company ultimately did the right thing and stood behind the product after escalation, with a few finding the security design and construction quality to exceed standard alternatives.

PRC made locks with US made lock bodies. They sell problematic locks, prone to picking and once they were called out they invested time and money into litigation rather than improving on the product... See more


Company details

  1. Locks Supplier

Written by the company

Proven Industries was born out of firsthand experience and hard lessons. After a family trailer was stolen—along with over $40,000 worth of equipment—we realized the true cost of relying on low-grade trailer security. That loss set us on a mission: to create the most secure trailer coupler locks in the industry. We knew that achieving the highest level of security would mean starting from the ground up. That’s why we manufacture all of our products in the USA using only the strongest materials available. Every product we offer is the result of rigorous testing and innovation—each lock design undergoes an average of 200 hours of research and development to ensure optimal fitment, functionality, and performance. At Proven Industries, we don’t cut corners. Our commitment to quality and security is what drives us, and we’re proud to provide our customers with some of the most effective trailer security solutions on the market today.

Purchased one of these locks not so long ago, silly me misplaced the keys. Luckily I was drinking a nice can of liquid death so I didn't need them.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review—though it’s interesting to see such confidence about a product you’ve never actually purchased. Considering you’re located in Denmark, where we don’t sell any of our locks, we’re a bit curious how you managed to test one so thoroughly.

It seems the latest internet trend has started to sound like “fact” to many, but viral videos don’t quite match real-world performance. If you ever find yourself in the Tampa Bay area, we’d be happy to show you exactly how our locks perform at our 80,000 sq ft manufacturing facility. A firsthand demonstration tends to clear things up quickly.

Best regards,
Proven Industries Support Team
