Will the Club Regular Utility Lock Secure My Battery Box Outside My Trailer
Question:
Can I use this lock on my battery box on the outside of my trailer so no one can lift the Box up and steal my battery?

The Club Regular Utility Lock # WIUTL810 may work to secure your battery box on the outside of your trailer. Since this lock has fully extended dimentions of 13-7/8" long x 9-1/8" wide and fully collapsed dimentions of 11" long x 9-1/8" wide, provided that your battery box and the frame can fit inside those dimensions like # 329-HM082BKS, this is an excellent option to secure your box.
If your battery box is taller than the # WIUTL810 dimentions will allow, the Club XL Utility Lock # WIUTL800 will allow an fully extended area of 22" long x 9-1/8" wide and a fully collapsed area of 15-1/2" long x 9-1/8" wide.
A more affordable yet effective option is to use a product like the MasterLock Hasp with Tamperproof Hinge # ML702D. This product will allow you to mount the hasp on the lid of the box and install the hinge on the base (or vise vera). I recommend the Master Lock Covered Solid Body Padlocks # 141T to secure this connection.
