Security for Your Dell Laptop
In a modern world where we carry our personal and sensitive information on our smart devices, it is crucial to ensure that our smartphones, laptops, and tablets are secure when we are in public spaces. Many people prefer to attach a lanyard to their hand-held devices. However, for larger devices such as laptops and notebooks, you require a more secure option. These devices would commonly be placed on a small table in a public space such as an airport or coffee shop. To discourage any theft attempts, you can utilise a notebook lock and attach your device to a solid and immovable object.
How Does a Notebook Lock Work?
Many laptops and notebooks are fitted with a security lock slot that allows the owner to attach a notebook lock to their device. Such a lock works similar to a bicycle lock, where the chain or cable goes around an immovable object and attaches to the bicycle. In the case of a notebook, such a lock plugs into the security lock slot of your device and locks with either a key or a combination lock. These lock slots are also located strategically on such a device to ensure that an essential component must be removed first to gain access to the lock slot when tampering with the device. As a result, if someone manages to physically rip the lock out of the slot, the device will be permanently damaged and rendered useless.
A Variety of Lock Slots
Different manufacturers use different types of lock slots on their devices. The most common lock slot is called a K-slot, which is utilised by large manufacturers worldwide. When it comes to Dell notebooks and laptops, they feature a thinner lock slot that fits a wedge lock instead. This type of slot was created by Noble as an alternative and more compact solution for notebook lock slots. If you are looking for a notebook lock for your Dell notebook or laptop, we have you covered with a variety of options to choose from.
What Can I Expect from a Notebook Lock?
Legion’s selection of notebook locks is manufactured using quality materials to ensure that you can rest assured that your device is safer in public spaces. The standard cable on our locks is 4,4 mm in diameter and manufactured from high-tensile steel that is sheathed in a layer of PVC coating. They also feature swivel cable joints to grant some movement for the device without damaging the lock slot or the lock itself. Noble wedge slots are 3,2 mm x 4,5 mm as opposed to a standard Kensington lock slot. If you require a notebook lock that would fit a K-slot, we can accommodate your needs as well.
Security for your portable devices should be a priority, especially when you find yourself constantly using your laptop or notebook in public spaces. Legion offers a wide variety of quality-manufactured laptop and notebook locks for Dell devices that feature Noble wedge lock slots.
