Wordlock

by TerriAnn

Do you remember standing in front of your locker with a blank look and a cold sweat? We’ve all forgotten our locker combination at least a few times. Even as we get older, it only gets harder remembering all those numbers and turning right, left all the way around once, left, right.

WordLock has created a simple yet ingenious solution – a combination lock based on words and letters instead of numbers!

I was able to work with two different varieties (of seven available). One was the standard padlock. It feels very solid and the curved arm is a good diameter to fit most applications. The other was the luggage lock. Meeting with TSA guidelines, this lock can be opened by airport security with a special key instead of agents having to cut your lock off. It was very easy to choose and set your own combination on both but they are designed in a way to prevent accidental re-setting.

On a lock with four letters, it is possible to create up to 100,000 different combinations. Just deciding on only one is the hardest part! Since you are choosing your own, it is so much easier to remember the right combination. But, like a password, only you will know it.

WordLock products are available in various colors and at retailers nationwide.

Hope to win!

My favorite lock is the Discus Lock. It’s shielded design resists bolt cutters, so even the sneakiest thief is at his wits end! Love that! 🙂 Thank you.

Ruth Hill September 11, 2010 - 5:20 pm

I don’t fly much any more, but the padlock would be great for me since I go to a gym and I need my own lock to lock up my stuff while there. I like that you cannot reset it by mistake! And I always seem to forget my combination!! Letters would be easier than numbers any day.
