Negative Points

The official website can be difficult to navigate at times and contains formatting issues. It could also be more clear with the information provided for each product that is available.
- Only 3 Number Combination
The addition of the combination locking carabiners is a great deterrent for thieves, but it would be better if the combination was more than three numbers. With three numbers there are only 720 possible combinations, but with four numbers that jumps to 10,000!

How To Set Your Combination
- Open the Lock
Find the side of the lock with the lines/arrows and set the combination to 000. Remove the plastic clip and push the silver combination lock all the way down until it pulls away from the black carabiner.
- Find the Pin
Inside the combination lock where the silver lock housing you will see a recessed pin. This pin can be seen when looking "down" into the lock. If you are unsure please refer to the video or image instructions below.
- Push the Pin Inward
Using a pen, or similar item, push the pin in (not the entire locking mechanism).
- Set the Combination
Have your combination in mind, and with the pin depressed, select your desired combination. Remember that the side with the lines/arrows is the side to pay attention to. To avoid making a mistake, it's best to set one digit at a time. That way, if you do make a mistake, it's much easier to identify it and fix it. Repeat these steps until all three are working properly.
If you have any problems during this process, it's a good idea to watch the official video found here: https://lockstraps.com/pages/setting-your-lockstraps-combination

Tips & Tricks
- Write Down Your Combination
To ensure you don't forget the combination that you've chosen, make sure you write it down somewhere that is accessible. If you're using the Lock Straps on your motorbike, and forget the combination, it's not helpful if you have it written down on a piece of paper at home. Having the combination in your phone, wallet, or another item that you carry everywhere is suggested.
- Select a Hard Combination
When you're selecting your combination password, make sure you choose a number that is not easy to guess. Birthdays and favorite numbers are not a good choice. It's best to pick a random number that is not related to your life.
If you store your password in your phone or on a piece of paper, make sure you do not label it "Lock Straps Combination" or something similar. If a thief gets ahold of this information they will be able to open your lock.
