I have a padlock stuck on a latch like this

Just ordered a pair of bolt cutters. If they cant cut through the padlock can I just cut through the latch where I've marked in red ? ...(And replace the whole latch)

Just beat it with a hammer if you don’t have bolt cutters, or drill out the lock. A set up like this is so weak you shouldn’t need to buy anything extra

You should invest in a sawzall and an angle grinder. You can improve profits by stealing their cats on the way out.

Why would I need an angle grinder for such a small job

Because there's much more you can do with it besides steal bikes, and if you hunt around you can get a decent battery powered one for like $100 sometimes.

Give me lever long enough, and a fulcrum on which to place it and I will unseize any padlock.

this is /diy/. it's filled with methead boomers and reddit troons who crave conflict

if you own a pipe wrench you can try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g70k-7rKFhY

Thanks, I do have a wrench but I fear if I do this it'll rip the latch off the wooden fence door and splinter it
