The Howsarlock
– Portable Door Lock
The original toughened nylon ‘Howsarlock’ is still being manufactured and selling well. Due to the demand, we now manufacture the lock-in metal. This has been tested and clearly proven to be even more robust, withstanding greater more extreme aggravated force.
Testing has been carried out by ‘Solid Secure‘ where it was awarded a Bronze rating as being suitable for mechanical security of domestic buildings.

Thanks to our customers
Just a few kind words from people who have purchased our locks.
You can carry it through airport security fine.
If I was a backpacker, especially female, and doing a lot of hostels I’d invest £4.99 in a ‘Howsarlock’ …Very useful for bedrooms and toilet doors.
Team Geared Up
Most grateful for my Howsarlock.
I am an academic specialising in cross-cultural psychology so travel extensively, sometimes to places where the door security is to put it mildly – a little questionable. I therefore am most grateful for my Howsarlock and have used it throughout the world, as well as recommended to many other travellers.
Professor Robin Goodwin
The lock is a simple idea… to keep unwanted intruders out of the room.
The paranoid traveller will never again lose sleep worrying about housekeeping and no one will need to use a propped chair to lock an unlockable door again.
