Kensington Slim NanoSaver 2.0 Dual Headed Lock - Custom Keyed
Protect your devices with a compact, dual‑head locking solution designed for today’s hybrid workspaces. The Kensington Slim NanoSaver 2.0 Dual Headed Lock delivers two layers of defense in one slim package: a NanoSaver primary lock that secures laptops via Kensington’s NanoSaver slot, plus a MicroSaver 2.0 secondary lock that can secure peripherals bearing the standard Kensington security slot. This means you can lock your notebook and key peripherals with a single, portable device, reducing clutter and streamlining security during travel, in classrooms, libraries, or shared workspaces. The cut‑resistant carbon steel cable is wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize wear on both the cable and your devices, helping maintain aesthetics while delivering robust theft deterrence. With a custom keyed system, this lock offers exclusive access, making it easier to manage keys across individuals or teams without compromising security. If you value portability without sacrificing protection, this dual‑headed lock is engineered to fit your on‑the‑go lifestyle while delivering dependable protection for your most important gear.
- Dual lockheads for complete protection: The NanoSaver primary lock engages your laptop’s NanoSaver slot, while the MicroSaver 2.0 secondary lock secures peripherals with the standard Kensington security slot. This two‑point approach provides heightened security in crowded spaces like coffee shops, airports, and coworking environments, helping deter opportunistic theft without adding bulk to your setup. The design keeps cables snug against devices, reducing snagging on bags or chair backs while you work.
- Cut‑resistant carbon steel cable with protective sleeve: The cable is engineered to resist cutting attempts and everyday wear, and the protective sleeve minimizes friction and abrasion against devices. This combination helps preserve your laptop lid surfaces and peripheral finishes, even when you’re locking and unlocking repeatedly throughout a long workday or during frequent travel.
- Custom keyed system for exclusive access: With Custom Keyed security, your lock uses a unique key pattern that ensures only authorized users can unlock it. This simplifies key management for individuals, teams, or IT departments, reduces the risk of accidental key sharing, and enables straightforward key replacement or rekeying when needed. It’s an ideal solution for offices, classrooms, or shared workspaces where multiple people rely on secure access control.
- Slim, portable design optimized for travel: The low‑profile form factor fits neatly in laptop bags, briefcases, and backpacks, so you can carry it everywhere you go without adding bulk. The dual‑head construction is engineered to remain flush with devices, minimizing protrusion and snag points during transit, while still offering strong locking performance when you reach your destination.
- Broad compatibility and trusted construction: Built to Kensington’s security standards, this lock works with devices that support NanoSaver and MicroSaver 2.0 slots, spanning a wide range of laptops, docking stations, and compatible peripherals. It’s a reliable choice for students, professionals, remote workers, and IT teams who demand dependable, scalable security across multiple devices and work environments.
