Targus Ultimate Resettable Combination Cable Lock (Slimline)

The Targus combination cable lock is a slimline keyless solution for Kensington-slot laptops. It provides a visible deterrent against opportunistic theft without the inconvenience of managing a key.

Targus Combination Cable Lock — Slimline Resettable Kensington

The slimline head fits the Kensington T-bar slot on most business laptops, including thin ultrabooks. The user-settable combination eliminates key management—the code can be changed when the lock is transferred to a different user or environment. The hardened steel cable anchors the laptop to a desk leg or fixed point, creating a physical barrier against casual theft. Find details at the Targus website.

Opportunistic laptop theft is a real risk for South African professionals in open-plan offices and co-working spaces.

The resettable combination suits environments where the lock is shared across team members or rotated between employees. The slimline design suits Dell Latitude, HP EliteBook, Lenovo ThinkPad and MacBook Pro models with a standard Kensington slot.

Lock Slot Compatibility Note

This lock is designed for the standard Kensington T-bar security slot (approximately 7.7mm wide). Some newer ultrabooks use the smaller Kensington NanoSaver or MicroSaver variants (approximately 6.8mm wide), which are not compatible with this lock. Verify which slot standard your laptop model uses before purchasing. Dell Latitude 7000-series, HP EliteBook 800-series and Lenovo ThinkPad T-series laptops typically use the standard Kensington T-bar slot.

The standard Kensington T-bar slot is standard on Dell Latitude, HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops sold in South Africa. Consumer and gaming laptops often omit the security slot, so confirm its presence before purchasing.
