KEEP YOUR LAPTOP SAFE
If you’re working on-the-go, ensure your laptop is safe
when you step away from it with Kensington’s Portable
Combination Laptop Lock. A trusted provider of security
solutions for many years, the Kensington device is a
push-button design offering one-handed engagement
for easy attachment of its T-Bar to the industry-
standard Kensington security slot found in 99% of
computers. Think of it as the computer equivalent of a
bike lock: Click it into the appliance, secure the cable
around a table, bench or other immovable object, and
spin the combination of the lock.
Made with strong, high-tensile steel materials, the lock
has a four-wheel number code that can be set to any of
10,000 possible combinations and is easily resettable.
The self-coiling cable stretches up to 6 feet and shrinks
back to just three inches for easy packing.
