4014648 Lewis N Clark Travel Sentry Cable Lock 2 Pack black

I bought several of these TSA-approved locks because I want my luggage to be secure, and it often contains valuable items that I want to make sure arrive safely. The Lewis N. Clark TSA Cable Lock (2 pack, black, one size) is the go-to lock of choice. It is excellent in every way, and buyers can save themselves a lot of time by simply choosing this lock for securing luggage or other items. I use the lock for many purposes besides securing luggage. For example, I use one lock on my locker at the gym. It is fast and easy to use, and you can set the combination to anything you choose. The cable is longer than the regular solid metal loop, which makes it easier to use in many different applications. I also use the lock for my laptop, certain file drawers, and other uses where a secure but simple lock is called for. The Lewis N. Clark lock is inexpensive, yet durable. When used on luggage, the TSA has a special key that can open the lock if they need to check your luggage without ruining the lock. And the cable loops (rather than the solid metal loop on most locks) makes the lock look stronger than others, which is a deterrent to someone trying to cut or break the lock. There are a great many choices on Amazon when you look for luggage locks, but the Lewis N. Clark lock, which comes in a 2-pack, is a great choice. You can also order an odd number. For example, I ordered 3 locks, and got a 2-pack and a single lock. So you have many buying choices with this vendor. The lock got to me quickly, and I was pleased with it from the first moment I used it. I give the lock 5 stars, and would highly recommend it to anyone. As far as I can tell there are no "cons" about this lock. Use it to secure drawers, bins, luggage, lockers, and even power tools. If you put a lock around the "trigger" of a power tool, it will probably prevent anyone from using the tool (like a child). So, there you have it, my glowing review of the Lewis N. Clark TSA-approved lock with cable loops. You really can't buy a better one for the price, and they are as sturdy and reliable as big-name-brand locks that cost 10 times as much.

I loved this lock! I work for a distributing warehouse and traveled by plane to another of our locations in another state. Sent my luggage via one of our company trucks and was leary as I didn't know these guys who would be sitting on my luggage until I arrived, so I bought this lock and it worked great! I just sent it to my son, who's flying my way tomorrow and is checking his suitcase with expensive items-he also loves it!

I bought these locks because I hated carrying keys around when I'm on vacation. Both locks work better than expected. I love the fact that these are cable locks rather than the traditional u-bar shaped lock. It provides much more flexibility when locking your luggage. The dial system on it feels well made. All dials turn without snag and they click when a number is in the proper position (ALL numbers do that not just your combination). It's to make sure that you don't miss-align a number. Yes there is a warning on it that says there is a chemical known to cause cancer but in all honesty it's not like you are going to be holding this lock in your hand or pocket all the time. Constant exposure to any chemical will cause bad side affects. The only time you touch these locks is when you open or close your luggage on a business trip or vacation. Trust me, you've touched and smelled far worse when you use common house hold cleaners. Resetting the combination is extremely easy; 1. Open the lock using the default combination and leave it opened. 2. Using a small pointed object, (pens work nicely) push and HOLD the button on the bottom of the lock. 3. While still holding the button, set your combination. 4. Release the button and it should be set. The only con is the price. These locks are more expensive than the traditional bar locks, almost 2 times the price. However they feel more durable. If you hate carrying keys, have a good memory, and want a lock that will last awhile (assuming TSA doesn't lose them) then this is the lock to get.

Well made travel locks with a sturdy feel and a flexible cable for easy use with all types of luggage. The only (minor) fault is that the alignment dots can be somewhat difficult to locate and see when entering my combination numbers.

This is a strong, secure, well made lock. What I especially like is the cable length. The locks that I had previously could only be used if the two things you were connecting were very close together. With this lock there could be an inch or inch and a half separation. The lock is TSA certified and has a keyhole to permit a TSA inspector to open the lock without damaging it. I'm sure if you were to buy the lock in a store in an airport terminal that you would pay at least double what is being charged by Amazon. The lock comes with instructions on setting a combination of your choosing,

I bought these after TSA cut off my previous TSA locks on my luggage (our govt dollars at work). They were easy to configure with a customized code, and the TSA logo is clearly displayed so hopefully they won't get cut off again by a lazy agent. Because these have a decent sized flexible loop on them, I found them handy to use at the gym as well. My prior luggage locks didn't have a flexible loop on them, so they would not work on the lockers at the gym. Now I don't have to lug around a heavy lock on my gym bag. Of course they are not that secure, but it is meant as a deterrent, not to replace Fort Knox. I find that plenty adequate for luggage and during a workout at the gym.

Loved so much, I bought a second pair. I've been using locks or twist ties, when desperate...for years. Since I began to travel wayyy more than I'd ever imagine I would in the 1970s. There are a LOT of locks out there, and now that we have to submit to ones the TSA (and any bozo with the key they have) can open...well, it gets more complicated. That said, the fixed locks, with the non flexible part to attach the two zips..are truly, a pain. Sometimes they just don't sync neatly together, or you cannot get them to...whatever. When I found these, I tried 'em on a recent 9 airplane trip throughout SE Asia. And they did it well. Surviving all those planes, including props PLUS easily sliding through the zips to lock..even in hotel rooms with 10 watt lights (well they were dim). Don't hesitate. I bought a second pair, given there are so many zips on a suitcase nowadays.

I bought a pair of these a few years ago for my daughter's bow case. They worked great, so when my younger daughter also needed locks for her bow case, I purchased a second pair. The process of coding for the newer pair was different than the original pair. Following the included instructions, I was able to successfully code both of the new locks. I then threw the packing away. A few weeks later, I realized the code on the new pair did not match the code of the original pair. When I went to recode the new pair, I couldn't find any instructions online to help, not even on the manufacturer's website. So, I ordered yet another pair, hoping the included instructions would explain how to recode the locks. Guess what, the instructions say nothing about recoding, only how to code them the first time. Long story short, these are good locks, but make sure you pick the code you want for all eternity. The only way to "recode" is to buy a new pair, which is stupid. The original pair is recodable, and no where on the packing or in the item description of the new locks does it say they can only be coded once. Now you know.

Después de un largo viaje por Asia, confirmo que los dos que llevábamos han aguantado muy bien, incluso uno de ellos una caída. El único pero que le veo que es un poco tosco, hay que pillarle el truquillo para sacar el cable del bloqueo una vez has puesto la combinación que abre. Una vez te das cuenta que sólo hay que desplazarlo sin hacer fuerza hacia ningún sítio, va bastante bien. Las ruletas de los números podrían ser de un poco más de calidad tanto en movimiento como en materíal. Para la función que lo que está pensado, creo que es mejor que otros modelos.

J'ai acheté ces cadenas pour compléter la valise Eastpak, vendu bien moins chère sans cadenas qu'avec ! Ces cadenas sont parfait, et permettent de fermer efficacement ma valise...

Ich verwende dieses Schloss im täglichen Leben um Taschen in der Stadt sicher verschlossen zu halten. Durch die hohe Flexibilität beim Einfädeln gibt hier von mir eine klare Empfehlung.

The combination lock is working perfectly well, the movement of digits is quite soft and comfortable. Easy to lock and unlock due to clear demarcation lines and internal movements of the parts is much in alignment with the desired digit.

I'm really impressed with this lock, it is of excellent quality and locks together in a solid click. The code was easy to set and the whole lock is really well constructed. I particularly love the steel cable, which is flexible and can easily slip into the zip holes (this saves a lot of time as normal locks are so rigid it is hard to get them to go through the holes), and it the lock is easy to fasten too. A really good lock.
