Disclosed is a lock apparatus for a trailer coupler. The lock apparatus includes a base that has a socket engagement feature that is receivable within a trailer coupler socket. The base of the lock apparatus further includes a locking assembly that has a locking mechanism, a user interface operable to actuate the locking mechanism, and a first and a second rotatable member coupled to the locking mechanism. A rotational axis extends through the first and second rotatable members. The lock apparatus further includes a pivoting shackle that has a middle section disposed between a first end section and a second end section, with the first end section being coupled to the first rotatable member and the second end section being coupled to the second rotatable member. The pivoting shackle is pivotable about the rotational axis between at least a locked position and an unlocked position.
