There's not exactly much wood left to stop that being pulled open. Or protection for the padlock if it was set vertical into the concrete
Have you seen these?

[Garage door bolts]
Yeah I don’t know why they’ve fitted it like that, or why they’ve used such a shit padlock. That picture was off a security site so you’d think they’d know better.
On my old garage door, there was about 3cm of frame in front of the bolt hole and I used padlocks with shrouded clasps so you couldn’t get croppers on them. Overkill, maybe, but mine was the only garage in the block that didn’t get done over.
In principle I quite like those ones you linked to. It’s going to be a question of a) whether it’ll fit and b) how good the lock barrels are. They look a bit easy to pick (they look easy to rake). I normally try to have two different types of lock to protect against pick attacks as well as two shapes of padlock for crop or cut attacks.

This is the more secure version I mean. Used with a disc padlock or one with a concealed clasp, you can’t get bolt croppers on them.
High security pad bolt?
