Hey All,

Anyone know if there are height issues using Pin Lock or Ball Locks in a keezer? I know that Pin Locks are shorter, but the connectors are taller. Thoughts?
 
Don't know about height, after all with a collar you can deal with anything, but width made a huge difference to me. I couldn't have fit 4 pin locks on the floor of my keezer.
 
I use ball locks, but I happened to be given a pinlock as a gift a while back. Ball locks are a bit smaller in diameter, so I can fit more.

FYI - my ball locks are 25.5' high with QD and have 8 3/16' Dia.
the pin lock is 24" with QD and 9.5" Dia
