It doesn’t matter which industry you’re in, there will always be a rivalry between the top brands. Whether it’s Nike vs Adidas, Holden vs Ford or even McDonalds vs Burger King, there will be a wide range of opinions on these topics. In the locksmith industry, however, there is quite often debate over which brand of locks and security products to use, and two big names that are generally thrown about are; Master Lock vs ABUS Locks.
Before starting our comparison, it’s important to note that both brands offer some fantastic products. It would be naive to choose one without considering the other.
Ok then, to start off, let’s look at their beginnings.
