Stop The School Thief From Making You A Victim

Choose the Right Lock for your School Locker

School locker locks will be one of the most important accessories your student will have on his or her supply list. Decorating a school locker is always fun but ensuring their belongings are safe is more important. It would be nice if theft did not have to be a consideration, as if students do not already have enough to worry about. But sadly enough there are school thieves and for that reason taking time out to choose the right lock for their locker is something that is not an option.

There are schools that have combination locks built into the lockers, but increasingly schools are doing away with those and having students apply their own. The good news is that there are not thousands of locks available to choose from so selecting the right one is not complicated. When it comes to locks for school lockers there are typically two different kinds of locks to choose from. There are combination locks also known as combination padlocks and there are key locks.

Let's take a look at combination locks the more common of the two. These typically have a dial and a preset, three or four number combination used to open the lock. Remembering the code can, at times, be a challenge to some students as well as remembering the proper sequence needed to open the lock.

Key locks are simply put, locks that require a key to open them. There is no combination to memorize and they open by way of a key. Most, if not all locks do come with a spare key. This may be the better option if trying to remember a code is not an option. The problem with key lock is, the student may run the risk of losing the key. Students should always keep their key on a keychain that they can either keep around their neck or clip on to a belt loop on their pants.

Both combination locks and key locks provide the security your student needs in securing his or her belongings that are put in their lockers at school. Be sure to make that a top priority when purchasing their back to school supply.
