Reset a Travel Sentry Combination Lock
The U.S. Transportation Security Administration screens every bag on passenger airplanes, either electronically or with a physical search. TSA requires that its agents be able to open any security locks on baggage to complete the screening process. If TSA agents cannot open the locks, they will cut them, putting you at risk for theft or missing luggage. Travel Sentry has partnered with the TSA to create a line of secure locks that agents can open with a master key, if necessary. The locks come with a standard 0-0-0 or 0-0-0-0 code. You can reset the code as many times as you wish.
