The best hotel safety tools in 2019

If you think a hotel room / apartment is safe, think again.

First, there are a couple of ways a hotel room / apartment can be broken into:

• Can be opened with a paper menu if you are not in the room to use the deadbolt / latch (video).
• Electronic locks can be hacked to create a master key card (video).
• Inside job by hotel staff.
• By criminals in shady / seedy areas.
• If your door does not have a locking chain / latch.

Next, hotel room safes can be broken into as well:

• Inside job: all hotels have a way to get into your safe.
• Master code: some hotels do not change it. It could be a standard “0000”, found in the user manual in the lock, or even found on the Internet! Simple codes such as “1234” are easy game for burglars too.
• Master key / master magnetic card: each safe the hotel orders comes with one, so a hotel will probably have hundreds and thousands of these. If these are not secured properly, they can be used by staff / thieves to steal.

The video below, shows an investigation into how (un) safe hotel safes really are:

Mike Moske, a private investigator who has worked in hotel security for over 26 years, estimates that 60-70% of hotel thefts are inside jobs.

If that happens, it is difficult to prove that you have been a victim of theft, as there are no signs of forced entry.

Sometimes, you won’t even know! E.g. you leave a credit card in the safe. A staff opens the safe and captures your card details without taking it. That said, here are 4 solutions:

When not in the room:

1. Portable safe
2. Hotel safe lock

When in the room:

3. Door lock
4. Door motion alarm

Not recommended:

1. Door bars: large and heavy
2. Door wedge alarms: can’t be used in many cases as it requires a specific distance between the door and floor; it may even be seen by thieves outside your door.

1. Portable safe

A portable safe is one that is slash resistant and can be attached to a secure fixture, so that it can’t be removed.

This is the most secure way of storing your valuables in your hotel room, or in an apartment without a safe.

It is also highly versatile as you can lock and leave it anywhere, such as at the beach / island hopping, cruise, swimming pool, gym, park, in your car, at your seat / table, etc.

However, it is heavier than the other options. So there’s a tradeoff between weight and versatility, but the weight is still very manageable.

 

1a. Best performance: Pacsafe Travelsafe 5L, 12L GII Portable Safe

The Pacsafe Travelsafe GII Portable Safe comes in two sizes, the 5L size and the 12L size.

 

>> More details on product site

 

This is another quality product from Pacsafe, which is the global leader in making anti-theft bags.

As with all their products, you can rest assured that the Travelsafe GII Portable Safe is well constructed, well designed, and comes with all the essential anti-theft properties.

One concern is that as the bag is embedded with steel wire mesh (criss cross manner), there are small areas which a really determined thief can cut through and steal your small items.

That however, is highly unlikely. A thief would rather choose an easier bag, as cutting up multiple small areas hoping to strike gold just sounds foolish – it takes too much time and effort.

And there is a simple workaround – just put your small items into a bigger folder / holder / item in the bag and it can’t be stolen.

Another concern is more valid however – the TSA 3 digit combination lock provided is just not good enough. First, TSA locks are easily broken. Second, there are only 1,000 combinations. A thief who takes 1 – 2 seconds to test every combination will only need 16 – 33 minutes. If your number is in the middle, that will reduce it to 8 – 16 minutes.

As such, if you do get this bag, it is recommended to get the 4 digit combination padlock by Desired Tools which is sturdier and brute force testing of every combination takes 10x longer – i.e. a thief will have to go through 10,000 combinations.

Good choice to protect your valuables in places where there are no other options

By Paul Q

Worked as advertised. No problems with the included lock if you patiently follow the instructions. If you are concerned about the security of the included lock, you can use a different one. I don’t know why this lock needs to be TSA compliant unless you are planning on checking it with things in it – not sure what scenario would produce that condition?

I have the 5L version. I used it in Morocco where there aren’t always safes in the rooms. I cabled it to some bathroom plumbing. It easily fits a couple of iPads, camera, a couple of pill cases and still has room for a bit more.

Only drawback is that it’s a little heavy and thick. It does take up space in your bag.

TIP: Don’t mind the negative review about being able to cut into it and pull cash / passports / smaller items out through the open mesh. Just put these items inside larger items. For example, I put my passport and some cash inside my iPad case. It will substantially reduce the possibility of someone being able to retrieve the contents of the bag through a hole cut in between the mesh.

If you are going to be staying in places without safes or other security options, this is a good choice.

1b. Best value: SAFEGO Portable Indoor / Outdoor Lock Box Safe

If the Pacsafe Travelsafe portable safe is out of your budget, the SAFEGO Portable Indoor / Outdoor Lock Box Safe with Key and Combination Access is a highly affordable alternative.

 

>> More details on product site 

 

One of the top selling portable safes on Amazon, this safe has also been featured on many travel media, such as Business Insider, USA Today, Travel Weekly and more.

Why? Because this product is sturdy, roomy, affordable, convenient and flexible with its combination lock or key access.

However, the main gripe is again, the 3 digit combination lock. Such a lock only provides 1,000 combinations. Should a thief take 1-2 second to test every combination, a thief will only need around 16 – 33 minutes to crack your lock. If your number is somewhere in the middle, that means 8 – 16 minutes are all that is needed.

On the other hand, a 4 digit combination lock has 10,000 combinations, which means it takes 10x the time required to crack the same lock by testing every combination. Unfortunately, the 3 digit combination lock is a permanent fixture of this product and cannot be changed.

That said, at this price range, the SafeGO product still represents great value for money and the 3 digit lock should still suffice as a deterrent.

 

What others have to say

Glad I purchased the item!!!!

By drseuss74

Purchased this for my trip to Jamaica just to be safe. First let me say that the product does hold much more than I was expecting. Whenever we left the beach we would lock the safe around a tree next to our chair, to our chair, or any place close by that we needed.

The SafeGo was built very sturdy and I never had any worries about someone either taking or breaking into the box while we were away. The lock was sturdy and I never felt worried leaving my items in it unattended.

I was able to comfortably put two Galaxy S6 Edge phones, lighter, keys, cigarettes, and a water proof camera in it at one time. The people we were traveling with said they were going to buy one once they returned after using and seeing ours.

One thing that really impressed me was when one of the cofounders of SAFEGO emailed me asking for my feedback and to see what my impressions were. That ladies and gentleman is customer service!!!!!!!!! I explained that we had not had a chance to use it yet and I would post the review upon my return.

The only thing I would change or ask for was maybe a second model that is about 2-3 inches longer/wider (left to right). If it had been just slightly longer I would have been able to put a few more items in here along with what I had mentioned previously. Otherwise the product was perfect and did what I was hoping for and even exceeded my expectations.

1c. Best budget: Master Lock Personal Safe 5900D

If you don’t have any large items or many items to lock up, then the Master Lock Personal Safe 5900D will make sense for you.

 

>> More details on product site

 

Master Lock is another well-known brand in the industry, and this is another high quality and highly affordable product from them.

The Master Lock Personal Safe is sturdy (made to withstand abuse, water resistant) and comes with a steel cable to wrap securely around a fixed object or use as a carrying handle.

The 4 digit combination lock is great as well (which gives 10,000 combinations and so is 10x more difficult to crack than a 3 digit lock), but the weight to capacity ratio is something that falls short relative to the Pacsafe Coversafe portable safe or the SafeGo Lockbox safe recommended earlier.

A deterrent, not an impenetrable safe..

By Average Joe

Firstly, if you are looking for an indestructible safe to hold large items, this is not the safe for you.

This safe work great as long as you use it for it’s intended purpose. To keep your small valuables relatively secure while in a moderately safe environment. Example: Using it while on vacation to prevent room service from accidently “cleaning” your wallet or phone. Or, if you have small children around and want to keep them from your medicine, phone, etc.

Now, if you plan on attaching this portable safe to a light pole and storing your Rolex and Bentley keys in it while you go for a long walk in Central Park, well… you might be disappointed. The safe is heavy duty and would take some effort to pry open. But the body is plastic so this safe could be defeated with a pry bar or hammer.

Bottom line, this product is meant to be as a safeguard and deterrent, not an impenetrable safe. If you keep this in mind you will not be disappointed. I am glad that I purchased this safe and feel safer (no pun intended, well maybe) leaving items in my hotel room when heading down to the gym or breakfast.

2. Hotel safe lock

Compared to the portable safe, a hotel safe lock is a more lightweight alternative to securing your valuables in your hotel room.

However, do note that there aren’t many good options in the market today, and these locks only serve to act as a deterrent, and can’t guarantee 100% security.

 

2a. Best value: Milockie Hotel Safe Lock

The Milockie Hotel Safe Lock is a lock and strap device and is one of two hotel safe locks out there in the market today.

 

>> More details on product site

 

The other alternative is the BloXsafe hotel room safe security lock. However, it is probably not worth the price (USD $300+, or GBP $140), unless you are securing valuables worth thousands or more.

That said, the Milockie Hotel Safe Lock is not perfect either. If you were to get this, there are two further upgrades that are recommended to be made.

 

Firstly, the padlock that comes with this is weak. It is equivalent to a 3 digit TSA lock.

• A TSA lock can be easily broken. Further a 3 digit code only gives 1,000 combinations. A thief taking 1 – 2 seconds to test every combination will only need 16 – 33 minutes. If your number is in the middle, that will reduce it to 8 – 16 minutes.
• Even the manufacturer recommends getting a stronger padlock (with a hasp of up to 0.5 inches)
• For instance, you could get the padlock from Desired Tools below.

 

Second, the strap is made of nylon and can be cut.

• Other users have reported good results by substituting the strap with the Pacsafe Carrysafe 100 GII Anti-theft camera strap, as the Pacsafe strap is wire reinforced and can’t be cut easily.
• This product review provides the instructions on how to do so.

If you google “open hotel safe” there are numerous videos showing how incredibly easy it is to open these safes

By MH

This device will restore some confidence that the hotel safe is keeping your belongings, wallet, passports etc safe from theft. The ease with which hotel safes can be opened is frightening. If you google “open hotel safe” there are numerous videos showing how incredibly easy it is to open these safes even without any lock-picking skill.

This device will make it more secure by adding your own lock to the outside. The lock you use on the outside is now the weak link but that leaves it up to you to choose a good quality lock. In any case it will probably be a big improvement over the original safe lock which is poor for most standard hotel safes.

Extra security: secures hotel room safes – this added lock creates a barrier that have to be unlocked to get access to the safe.

Theft prevention: your valuables are secure. Even those with a hotel master override key or code for the safe can’t open the safe because the Milockie is in place and prevents the door from swinging open.

Use your own lock: a lock is included but it is suggested to use a more robust padlock (hasp up to 1/2 inch in diameter) for additional peace of mind.

Versatile: use on hotel safes, and gym lockers and even home safes too.

Compact for travel: can be carried on airplanes or in luggage with carry pouch.

3. Door lock

If you are concerned about the area in which you stay in, or if your room does not have a locking chain, a portable door lock may come in particularly handy as a second line of defence while in your room.

 

3a. Best performance: Travelers Security Lock Portable Door Lock

For the best portable door lock out there in the market today, look no further than the Travelers Security Lock Portable Door Lock.

 

>> More details on product site 

 

This product has two parts.

• First part: a thick machined aluminium bar with a large raised portion. You insert this raised portion into the door so that the door can be closed with the aluminium bar between the door and frame.

• Second part: a notched block of aluminium with two bolts. This is attached into the notch on the bar, with the bolts tightened till they press against the door and frame. If anyone tries to push the door open, this door lock will apply any force taken and distribute it amongst the lock and door frame.

This is a workhorse of a product. With the thick aircraft aluminium block and tight lockup from the bolts (which is easily adjustable to fit any door / frame), your room is going to be super secure.

Unfortunately, one downside from the thick aluminium used is that this product is heavier (0.5 lbs / 8.5 oz / 240 g) than alternatives in the market. For instance, the Addalock (described later) only weighs (0.26 lbs / 4.2 oz / 119 g) and is cheaper.

So if you wish to get one, you will have to decide which lock is most appropriate for your own needs based on the 3 key factors of security, weight and price.

Strong as Fort Knox

By Charles 22

I used to use a door stop as my slight room security as I slept. This thing is invincible. Somebody would have to be able to figure out how to kick your door down, or more likely shatter the door framing around the door jamb in order to get past this. Needless to say, crooks coming to your house in the middle of the night, don’t anticipate having to use a battering ram to get in.

I will use it for my bedroom, but using it in place of a deadbolt for the main outside house doors, while you’re inside, could work just as well. Only problem is you couldn’t use it on a door while you left the house, otherwise you couldn’t get in yourself, except through a door that didn’t have one of these on them.

I personally think this is a major obstacle for a crook trying to get into your bedroom, and they would probably be wise to give up after a minute. I’m sure 10 minutes could pass and they still wouldn’t be any closer to getting in. I can imagine this being indispensable for people having to sleep on the road.

3b. Best value: Addalock

If budget is a concern, the Addalock by Rishon Enterprises Inc. is one highly affordable alternative you can consider.

 

>> More details on product site 

 

The Addalock is very easy to use. It is pretty much a thin strip of steel bar with prongs that stick out at one end. Stick that part into the door frame’s bolt hole and once you close the door, clip the red plastic part to the end of the bar and that is all.

As mentioned earlier, although the Travelers Security Lock Portable Door Lock is more secure than the Addalock, the Addalock is still secure in its own right, and comes in at half the weight and half the price of the Travelers lock.

So ultimately, it will depend on what you need.

Great for feeling well protected when you stay out and about!

By Allan P

I picked this up because I travel with my two young kids. It arrived right before a weekend trip to a convention. The “hotel” we booked was more like a motel with the door opening directly into the parking lot. To top it off, we were in the middle of some farmland with NO streetlights at all. Needless to say, the significant other was a little nervous. Addalock to the rescue!

The lock is a little tricky to place the first time. You have to put the metal tab into the catch and hold it flat while you close the door. Once that’s done it’s simple as pie to get the rest into place and there is ABSOLUTELY no way someone can open the door from the outside. Gave us a great sense of security!!

Definitely worth the few dollars for all the security it gives!

3c. Best budget: Secure Portable Home & Travel Door Safety Locks

If budget is a key concern, you will not go wrong with the Secure Portable Home & Travel Door Safety Lock.

This door is simple, lightweight and easy to use. How to use:

• Insert locking tab into rectangular opening of striker plate attached to door frame.

• To open, squeeze lever until stop bar is flush with door lock allowing door to open.

However there are a few limitations to this lock you need to watch out for:

• There has to be around a 0.125 – 0.1875 in / 0.32 – 0.48 cm gap between the latch plate and the strike plategap between the door and door jam.
• If it is too tight, you would not be able to close the door; if it is too loose, the lock will drop out.
• Only works for inward opening doors.

4. Door motion alarm

If you are concerned about the area in which you stay in, or if your room does not have a locking chain, a door motion alarm may come in handy both to alert you and to scare off any potential intruders.

Another form of alarm is the door wedge alarm, but it is not recommended as it is not as versatile.

This is because the distance between the door and the floor cannot be too narrow or too wide for it to hold in place, and it may even be seen by potential intruders outside your door.

 

4a. Best performance: Doberman Security Portable Door Alarm with Flash Light

The Doberman Security Portable Door Alarm with Flash Light is one of the best travel door motion alarms out in the market today for its price.

 

>> More details on product site

 

Why so? This is because the item is:

• Easy to set up on any door (just hang it from the door knob and place the clip in the door jamb).
• Lightweight and compact.
• Produces a decent 100 dB alarm (equivalent to jet take off at 305m; power lawn mower; motorcy.cle, etc).
• Comes at a great price.

Do note that there is no on / off switch. This can be a good thing as any potential intruder will probably not know how to stop the alarm short of smashing it. But it will be a hassle if you are just testing the product.

Good product!

By Janine

After having an incident with someone breaking in my AirBnB, I decided to buy this for future travels.

This alarm is very easy to set up and is pretty loud when used in a space that’s on the smaller side, i.e. if you were on the same level as the door you are using it on. I wouldn’t trust myself to hear it if I were in a second story and the door I put this on is on the first floor or something like that.

This product gives me a small sense of security when I travel. I’m hoping to never hear it when I am sleeping though!

4b. Best value: Lewis N. Clark Lightweight Compact Travel Door Guard Alarm

At a slightly lower price, the Lewis N. Clark Lightweight Compact Travel Door Guard Alarm with LED Flashlight will also work well for you.

 

>> More details on product site

 

The alarm from Lewis N. Clark is as equally easy to use, compact and lightweight as the alarm from Doberman.

To use, hold the thin blades together, slide them into the crack between the door and doorframe, then loop the cord around the door handle and adjust the toggle to keep it in place. Finally, you can set the alarm.

This same technique can be applied to sliding doors or to windows as well. No matter the situation, it will alert you to a possible intrusion.

However, the Doberman’s alarm is just slightly louder at 100 dB, while the Lewis N. Clark alarm works at 91 dB (equivalent to a motorcycle at 25 ft / 7.6 m).

Terrific product!

By OCLuna

Terrific product!!!!!! I had the GE Personal Security Door Stop Alarm which was so-so (3 stars for me) but I found out that the GE doesn’t fit about 25% of doors – there just isn’t enough clearance to insert the GE in some doors.

But this thing worked 100% of the time for me while I was travelling in Europe last month. And it was tiny (about the size of a matchbox and 1/4 of the thickness) – great if you like travelling light. And it gives a loud sound.

I had some relatives who stayed in a hotel last year and someone jimmied the door lock and stole some of their jewelry and cash – that was so traumatic for all of us.

If you don’t want that to happen to you, you will appreciate having this useful travel accessory. A lot of security for such a small price. Good job Belle Hop!
