Frequently Asked Questions

Does PocketLock work with both round doorknobs and lever-style handles?

Can I take PocketLock in my carry-on when traveling?

Yes! PocketLock is incredibly lightweight and compact, making it perfect for travel. You can easily pack it in your carry-on and take it with you wherever you go, giving you peace of mind wherever you stay.

Will PocketLock still work if the door is unlocked from the outside?

Yes, PocketLock is engineered to secure the door from the inside, preventing it from opening—even if someone tries to unlock it from the outside. The steel plate and red locking piece create a barrier that keeps the door firmly shut.

Can PocketLock be used on doors that open outward?

No, PocketLock is designed for doors that open inward. It stops the door from opening by creating a physical barrier inside the door. For doors that open outward, it wouldn’t work as intended, since the lock would need to be placed outside, which would defeat its purpose.
