Expert Reply:

The Bulldog BX1 gooseneck couplers have that handle assembly at the bottom so the lock that would fit at the bottom of the coupler in lock set # BLTL-53-40D2 would not fit. The BX1 series of gooseneck couplers can be locked with a padlock which you could get locally.

When the BX1 couplers are in the coupled position, you can place a padlock through the hole as indicated in the picture. The coupler could then not be opened with or without a trailer connected.
