Can you really add a good cable lock to this? It says there's a "lock loop" but I can't find any examples of people using it.

I suppose you could, if you can picture the grey part at the top is what holds the inside of your rim, the wheel then hangs on the white backer plate I'm guessing that the "loop lock" section is the raised triangular section below this if you ran a chain or a D lock through this and your wheel that would secure it**Of course if you have quick release wheels you may come back to just your wheel also the way you secure this to the wall (two screws behind the metal back panel) a creative thief may maneuver the bike enough to access the back panel remove the screws and take the whole lock stock and barrel (bike and racor rack)So can it be locked? - YesWould I advise it? - No It's the wrong application in my view.

My racks are secured in a garage so I didn't need a lock loop. I looked at mine and there is no loop that I could see unless they're saying you could run the cable through the two bottom bars which you could do. It won't be the strongest or most secure, but it will lock your bike.

I only use it to hold the bikes so they are not sitting on the tires. I guess you could if you bolted the rack really securely to the wall. Any type of lock is just a determent, if they really want it they can get it!

I believe there is a strap loop on the receiver but no place for a proper lock. Only the receiver's antenna needs to be in direct sight of cam's antenna. I bury mine in some rocks 50 yards away with only the antenna poking out. I seriously doubt anyone could ever find it.

i'm not sure, i'll try to get to my cable in the next couple of days, I got mine to lock our boat to docks when left unattended. the cable ends are too big to fit thru our pop up cleats on the boat so I got two of the trimax rubber coated locks to just lock the cable to the cleats. works like a charm.

These may seem obvious but first check to make sure you have the right key for the lock and then make sure the key is all the way into the lock. It is a Master Lock and my code starts with a P. Then turn it 1/4 turn clockwise. It may take a little force to turn it. If that doesn't work, try releasing some of the tension on the cable by lifting the camera up some. If all else fails, get out the bolt cutters and cut the cable and return it as defective. Good Luck

No holes to utilize cable lock. The housing is all plastic...cable lock would be useless. Even if secured with cable or metal box my experience with camera thieves is if they cant steal it they shoot it.

I have had to fiddle with the key several times. Make sure the key is "fully" inserted and try to turn. Depending on how you threaded the cable through it may need to either be removed one way through the lock or the other way as I have had it lock two different ways.

I have a Q5. If I bring the cable out the upper left corner of the glob box I'm able to latch the box without damaging the cable. It does put a bit of a kink in the cover of the cable but hasn't appeared to cause any problems.

No cable lock. Big, colorful stickers with identifying information is the only solution I can think of... Also mark the case as it looks like a black notepad folder. I keep the monitor in my laptop bag when I'm not using it.

Mine locks but the locking cable has loosened. Does anyone have experience tightening it?

Yes, there are holes for a cable lock below where the tree strap goes through, although IMO, it would have been better if the if the cable lock holes were above the tree strap which would have made it easier to hang. No biggie..mine has been reliable even in sub zero temps. The time lapse feature is really cool.

Sorry I overlooked this request for so long. My hubby said it takes a padlock so it should take a cable. He also said search for the stealth cam lock box. He purchased one and it works well. We now have 3 of these cameras. Pleased with product although night pictures could be better.

do you have any room to slide it up or down at all? do that and fish the cable thru. I wouldn't prying it off as it might break.

Yes. You can use the u-bar lock to lock the cable to. Or you can have a separate lock to use with the cable. In short, they're two separate locks that can work in tandem or separately. I hope this helps.

I don't run the cable through the metal security tab. I use chain to secure it to the power pedestal and put the padlock shackle through the security tab. If you want to use cable it will have to have a loop on each end then secure both ends to the security tab with a padlock. My unit is out in my motor home but if I remember correctly the hole is only about 3/8". For what its worth the tab isn't that substantial but it will slow someone down if they want to steal it.

Loop the lock end through the loop opposite such that the entire cable loops around something stationary to which you want to secure a laptop or monitor.

Yes, you could loop a cable around the bar, you would probably want to also loop the cable through the diamond shape hole in the wall mounted bracket so if someone was going to steal the bike they would have to rip the whole unit out of the wall.

Yes, you can lock it with a cable computer lock with the computer docked or not.
