Do Kensington locks work with all types of laptops?

Asked 6 months ago
Yes, Kensington locks are designed to work with almost all types of laptops. The locks feature a universal design that is compatible with the Kensington Security Slot found on the majority of laptops, including models from various manufacturers. However, it is essential to ensure that the laptop has a Kensington Security Slot to use the lock effectively. Some ultrabooks or sleek laptops may not have this particular slot due to their slim design. In such cases, alternative security solutions, such as adhesive options or cable-lock systems, are available from Kensington. Before purchasing, it is recommended to verify the presence of a Kensington Security Slot or explore suitable alternatives to ensure compatibility and optimal security for your laptop.
