DocksLocks SUP & Surf Security System for Surfboards and Paddleboards

This product is fabulous, exactly as described. Went on in 2 seconds. Thank you for making this solution available quickly.

Ended up returning due to the inability to reset the combination. Apparently the lock was defective and when received, it came in a package within another package which was very odd. Contacted DocksLocks support which confirmed that the reset dial was frozen in place. I ordered a replacement so hopefully the new one will work since I really like this cable lock. Update - received the replacement and discovered the one that had previously been sent already had a combination set which was not the "0000" that, according to the instructions, should have been the default combination. Because of this and not knowing what the combination had been set to caused the reset dial to be locked in place. Probably someone returned this without resetting the combination back to its default setting. I can now reset the combination with ease. The quality of this cable and lock is excellent. I would highly recommend this product.

We use this lock system to keep stand up paddle boards secure in the storage stand outdoors. Easy to use and the lock is secure.

This is a clever and very easy to use device to secure a SUP - I haven't seen another product that would work as well. Two adverse comments: First, the coiled cable is a pain to use; must be modeled after the cheaper bike cable locks - but SUP's travel by car or are just stored at one's home, cabin, etc. and not around a seat post. The cable would be much easier to use if it were a simple, non-coiled cable. Second, the cable and lock are adequate to secure against the casual or opportunistic thief, but not one with a cable cutter or other readily available tool. It does work adequately for my purposes, however, storing SUP's outside on a rack in a good neighborhood at the lake. I may buy more of the clip/connectors without the cable, and then put a nice padlock, with the shackle through the clip, and a regular cable of whatever diameter then secured by the closed padlock. This would make using the device less frustrating and with better aesthetics that the coiled blue cable. I will not return the coiled cables (since I knew what I was getting), but will give them to some kid with a cheap bike.

Exactly what you would expect it to do. This is a very high quality lock. If you have a stand-up paddle board that has a steel dowel somewhere flush on the board, this is what you need. The actual part that attaches to the paddle board resembles the key. The black collar slides up and down allowing the jaws of the key to open about a half an inch. You then insert the open Jaws into the dowel area and slide the collar down. That closes the Jaws revealing the loop you then slide the cable through. As long as there's a cable or a padlock through the loop, the key like lock cannot be removed from the paddle board. Absolutely ingenious. You can use it with the existing cable or any padlock or cable combination you like.

This product works great. I bought it to lock my SUP/surfboards to my roof-rack. It wasn't completely clear how the item works from the description. The DockLock is an item that looks like a key with an internal metal ring and arm piece. When extended the arm piece splits and can be secured around the bar in your leash plug on your board. After the arms are secured around the leash plug, you slide the lock revealing a ring on the opposite side which you then feed the cable lock through. With the cable lock in place everything is secure. The cable lock included has a combo on it. The whole system works great, is easy to use, and gives me the piece of mind leaving my board on my car while running into a store or grabbing some food. I personally wouldn't use for long term or overnight use, because it is a standard cable bike like that could most likely be cut with some bolt cutters. I also would strongly recommend buying the cable lock with the DockLock piece because the diameter of the cable lock has to be just right to fit the DockLock.

I use this for securing my paddleboard to my vehicle. The DockLock is easy to use and quickly attaches to the paddleboard in seconds. The cable prevents the lock from being removed when installed through the ring. The only negative is the DockLock can potentially hit the back of the car/window while securing/unsecuring if attached to the underside of the paddleboard. The DockLock is heavy enough to damage the vehicle (dent or scratch) if that happens. Overall, it is a great product for a small price to give peace of mind that an expensive paddleboard is secured against theft.

I agonized for a while about spending $50 for a lock, but then I remembered how much I spent on the SUP board itself! This locks right into the fin box. You just have to install the little lock cleat once and then you can easily clip and unclick the lock. The cord is sturdy but small enough to even fit through D-rings; we use this to lock up two boards stacked on top of each other on a rack. The cable is also pretty long, probably twice the length of a standard bike lock.

A great product and the perfect solution to keeping my board locked up.

Simply poorly made. Imported into Aus from the US so return a pain.
