I've been very happy with these;

Not bad, it looks quite similar to what I had before, that lasted about
two years. It is subject to torque from the lock weight as well. And it
is quite expensive too!

Just one remark, if you buy two of them, you should be able to secure
your lock from two points, eliminating most of the torque and allowing
the supports to last more than twice as long before breaking.


Mine has little torque as the holder is close to the balance point, but
they are, as you say, bloody expensive.

Mines done 3 years now.
