FAQs

What materials is the Compulocks Anchoring Point made from?

The anchoring unit is made from durable stainless steel and features a chrome finish.

Can I use this anchor on a glass desk?

While adhesive mounting can work on smooth surfaces, it is generally recommended to use the screw-mounting option on solid materials like wood or metal for maximum security. If using adhesive on glass, ensure the surface is perfectly clean and smooth, and allow ample curing time.

Does this product come with a security cable lock?

No, this product is an anchoring point only. You will need to provide your own compatible security cable lock.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer or manufacturer. Please refer to your purchase documentation or the Compulocks website for specific warranty details.

How do I remove the anchor if I used the adhesive backing?

Removing adhesive often requires gentle heat (like from a hairdryer) to soften the adhesive, followed by careful prying. Be aware that this may still damage the surface underneath.

Is the chrome finish prone to scratching?

The chrome finish is durable but can be scratched by abrasive materials. Handle with care during installation and use, and clean with a soft cloth.

Troubleshooting

Anchor feels loose after installation

If using screws, ensure they are fully tightened. If using adhesive, the surface may not be suitable, or the adhesive may not have cured properly. Consider re-applying with a stronger adhesive or using screws if possible.

Security cable does not fit through the anchor hole

Ensure you are using a compatible security cable lock. The anchor hole has a specific diameter; try a cable with a thinner locking head or loop.

Adhesive is not holding the anchor securely

Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Re-apply the adhesive, pressing firmly for an extended period. For critical security, consider using the screw mounting option if available and suitable for the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Choose Location: Select a sturdy, flat surface (desk, wall, floor) where you want to secure your device.
  2. Select Mounting Method: Decide whether to use screws for a permanent, strong hold or adhesive for a less permanent option.
  3. Install Anchor:
  • Screws: Mark the screw hole positions, drill pilot holes if necessary, and securely fasten the anchor using the provided screws.
  • Adhesive: Clean the mounting surface thoroughly. Peel off the backing of the adhesive pad and firmly press the anchor onto the surface for at least 30 seconds.
  1. Allow Adhesive to Cure (if used): For maximum adhesion, wait at least 24 hours before attaching a security cable.
  2. Attach Security Cable: Loop your compatible security cable lock through the anchor's hole and then through the device you wish to secure.

Compatibility:

This anchoring unit is designed to be compatible with most standard security cable locks that feature a loop or shackle designed to pass through an anchor point. Always check the specifications of your security cable lock to ensure it will fit through the anchor's opening.

Care:

  • Clean the anchor periodically with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the chrome finish.
  • Periodically check the security of the mounting, especially if using screws, to ensure it remains firmly attached.
