Laptop Locks

Universal Cable Locks
This type of lock connects to a laptop using the standard built-in security slot. This is easy and convenient, and is most common for personal and business laptops. This is primarily a theft deterrant and offers a relatively modest level of physical security.




Permanently Attached Anchors
This type of lock adheres to your laptop with a poweful adhesive that cannot be removed without damaging the equipment. This provides a higher level of visual and physical security.

                                            

Here are a few questions to ask before you make your choice.

Is this a personal laptop or is it institutionally owned?
Most individuals are willing to sacrifice a certain amount of security in order not to permanently mark their personal laptop. SecurTech offers Universal Cable Lock Kits for this purpose. Institutions (schools, hospitals, etc.) should prioritize physical security over aesthetics. Institutional buyers should choose a permanently attached solution such as the SecurTech Spot Anchor system.

Does this laptop need to fit into a charging cart or station?
Be sure to check the clearance to make sure the laptop will still fit into the charging slot once an anchor has been attached to the outside of the laptop case. Othersiwe, a universal cable lock solution is recommended.

Does this laptop remain in one place, or is it moved around?
If you move this laptop from place to place, choose a universal cable lock that can be detached easily and can be coiled and carried in a laptop case. If it is primarily used in a single location, choose a more physically secure cable lock that attaches to the desk or table.

Do you also need to secure peripheral devices?
If you have a printer, external hard drive, monitor or keyboard, these can also be secured using the proper laptop cable lock kit. Additional universal Scissor Clip attachments can be used to secure devices with standard security slots. Additional Spot Anchors can be used for devices without security slots.
