Full details
The ATEK Portable Door Lock is an essential security accessory for frequent travelers, students living in dorms, and homeowners seeking an extra layer of privacy.

FAQs
Does this lock work on all door types?
It is designed for most standard inward-opening doors. It will not function on sliding doors or doors that open outward.
Can I leave the room while this is installed?
No, this is an internal security device and must be operated from the inside of the room.
Will this scratch my door frame?
The device is designed for a snug fit, but users should handle it carefully during placement to avoid surface marring.
Is this TSA approved for air travel?
Yes, as it is a small, non-sharp personal security device, it typically passes through security without issue.
What if my door does not have a strike plate?
This device requires a standard strike plate cavity to anchor the metal claw effectively.
Troubleshooting
The lock does not fit the strike plate.
Verify that you are using the correct hole size on the device and ensure no debris is obstructing the strike plate cavity.
The door will not close properly with the lock installed.
Ensure the metal tongue is pushed fully into the strike plate and that the device is flush against the door frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the door is closed and the strike plate is accessible. Slide the metal portion into the strike plate opening, then align the locking plate over the stud. Move the sliding handle into the locked position until it rests snugly against the door. This lock is compatible with most standard residential doors that swing inward. To clean, wipe down with a dry cloth periodically to remove dust and debris. Always store in the included travel pouch to prevent scratching surfaces in your luggage.
